What is this noise??

Coupe5oh · 11-22-2001, 09:13 PM

Well have two questions,

i started my car, and backed out, and every slight bump, i hear this rattling noise under my dash, under the steering wheel? why do these noises just pop up for no reason?

also my reverse lights arent working now, i got under my car, it was dark outside though, and looked with a flashlight, and couldnt find anything wrong, where is the reverse lights harness on a t-5? the plugs i saw were connected as far as i could tell, but had oil all over them, any help would be nice

The switchs go bad regularly,under car on drivers side,theres a plug on wire connect w/two treaded looking studs(after you pull of connector)using a jumper wire across the plug,back up lites should lite,if not double check back up lite bulbs,if lites do come on
with key on and engine not running,place tranny in reverse and use DVM set continuity, switch should have continuity,if not switch
is bad replace...My friends went bad and so did mine...
