Hello All,

Thanks for all the tips yesterday. I pulled the switch last night and found the problem. The springy thing (as described by George) was bent and making a ground connection through the attaching screws. I cleaned it all up and repositioned the springy thing then covered the screw with a bit of PVC tubing, so even though it was bent (I did straighten it, but will it stay put?), it can't go to ground anywhere other than the reverse shift rod. So far it works.

Just have to put the front suspension back on and finish sand the rear 1/4 panel repairs and I am ready for the road.

Cheers,
Craig
