My '84 GT with a T5 has more electrical connections than wires running to it from the car. Could the extra connection be for the optional "upshift" light? The jackass tranny shop that worked the car for the prev. owner had the cruise control xducer connection plugged into this-made troubleshooting the inop cruise control REAL FUN.<IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0"></P>

Backup lights? What does the connector look like?

The backup lights work, so this unconnected wire must belong to something else. The connector is a white round shell type with the locking tabs. There is another like it, and it isconnected. There is also another wire that is connected to a screw in connection on the side of thetrans.</P>

The transis not the original one, so you must be right-Wonder if I can use it as a cutoff to keep theengine from grenadingif the car goes into neutral with the c/c on?Thanks for the info</P>
