    Alright guys, I did search and found nothing. My gear indicator (P-R-N-D-2-L) Light has been acting up. It will be lit up fine, and then 5 min. later the light will go out. Most of the time it's not even lit up and I can't see what gear I am in, then it will randomly turn on. Is this a connection issue or a bulb issue? I know the sensor hooks up the the tranny, do I need to get under there with some electric contact cleaner and spray things down? Anyone similar issues?
