reverse switch on a 97 Neon

[Mic1980]

was wondering where it was and is it hard or easy to remove it. I can't find it on my Neon repair manual, I read it's on the tranny or under the shifter case but I have never changed one so any help would be great, thanks

It's on the top of your tranny on the driver's side. A 1" deep socket should get it off without any problems. Costs about $12-$15.

Yeah, toughest part is the damn battery tray

I replaced the reverse switch, the reverse lights came on but now 3 days after they don't work anymore. I'm thinking it's a transmission problem. My transmission slips in 3rd gear and when I put it in park it moves a bit before it locks, would adjusting the kickband help at all? and what is adjusting the kick band do?
