you did do all this testing with engine running ? right
so that the tranny actually shifted to reverse
you did say the BU lights come on
it would seem the "trigger" wire circuit has been broken, it should be connected to the trans reverse that turns on the backup lights
you could add a wire from the BU lights, let it activate a small relay
but the relay in circuit between the HOt red and the monitor reverse turn on
Thanks for mentioning the relay. I would have just connected it direct to the backup lights and could have fried something else. Is it possible that I have fried a relay and that is why there is no power to the blue? I can learn to test relays and check them if so. Does anyone have an idea where that relay might be? I have the Ford manual and the Coachmen one but there is nothing I can find.
PS Yes. I checked with engine running and in reverse.
