    Hello all. Can anyone tell me the location of the back-up lamp switch on a '68 Dodge A108? Reverse lights are out and the bulbs are fine. Thanks.

    If it is an automatic the switch is on the transmission, on mine which is a 70 trans reverse is part of the neutral safety switch (three wire).

    Unless it has been changed 68 still uses the single pin neutral safety switch. The back up light switch on 68 is on the shifter behind the dash. You can change to a 3 pin switch but requires some internal changes to the transmission.

    Thanks Dan, you're right. Only a single pin on the 727. I'll dig behind the shifter this weekend. Much appreciated.
