ONEBADBIRD OP mopar O Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 551 Great Lakes State	I have recently put my 1969 Road Runner back on the road! Now that it is up and running I am finding things to fix that I did not know about before!!! When I first got it running (a couple of weeks ago) my backup lights would come on only in reverse like they should now when put into Drive,or 2nd, or 1st gear they stay on? When put in park they go out. Can you help me figure out what might be the reason, Maybe you have seen this issue before? I have a 727 torqueflite, new neutral safety switch and new wiring under the hood. Thanks, Jay

I never had this problem till I put a new neutral safety switch in. If I was you I would start there. 7415690-Hagerstownshow.jpg (168 downloads) ...FAFO...
