I checked this morning and my back up light doesn't work. Does that mean they have to drop the transmission again to fix this? Thanks

Not at all. The connectors are right on top where the engine and transmission meet. You'll see two sets of wires coming up along the top of the transmission into a little bracket. They are color coded so it should be clear whether or not they are connected.

Man, that would be great if that's it. Fingers crossed.

I finally found the switch after doing 30 minutes of research.

And yes, you were right. Both switches (grey and red) were not plugged in. Thanks again!
