    Does anyone know a part number or replacement for the female-end of the backup light switch connector? The connector that the backup light switch sensor connectors to, on the passenger side of the transmission.

    I had a shop do a clutch job and they trashed the connector. I had them replace the sensor but the issue seems to be on the female-end of the connector. They had the truck for over a month but couldn't figure out the part.

    I would say the wire on the truck is 16 gauge or smaller. You would need to double check before ordering. Then get the smaller seal, SL1

    They are cheap enough. I've ordered a bunch of stuff from them.
