It is located on the transmission case underneath the car. There should be a wire with an in-line fuse on the right side of the engine. If you are having a problem with the reverse lights not coming on, check this fuse first. It is more likely to go bad before the switch does. On the switch itself, there will be a couple of wires coming off of it. One for power going to the switch, the other leads to the backup lights. There SHOULD BE a rubber boot that covers these wire connections, but it may have come off over time. This switch just simply unscrews from the transmission case. Hope this helps.

Does anyone know where the backup light switch is on a 1968 Mustang with a 289 and C4 transmission?

AnswerIt should be on the left side of trans where the shift levers are. It is called the neutral safety switch and the backup light switch is built into the same switch. So, this switch allows your car to only be started in park or neutral and when in reverse, it will turn on the backup lights. There are four wires on the neutral safety switch with a square connector on the end.

Why does the fuse blow when you push in on the brake peddle on your 1968 vw beetle?

Because there's a short somewhere in the system, and it's probably on the master cylinder. VW, for some reason, used a brake light switch that's activated by brake fluid pressure. The switch is under the car where it gets wet.
