Subject:Re: Backup light switch malfunction - blinking backup lights when shifting

This is to follow up on the problem of malfunctioning backup lights that
came on when shifting gears and in third and fourth sometimes.  The problem
was in fact the broken bell on the end of the selector shaft.  I purchased a
shaft from Daryl and it came promptly across the country in four days.
Installation took 20 minutes, not including jacking up the bus, and the
problem was fixed.  BTW, the nose of the transmission did not have to be
lowered although it was close.

Many thanks to Daryl of AA Transaxle.
