Reverse issue after new clutch install

Hey all! Just installed a Southbend Stage 2 clutch today, everything works perfectly except for one small issue. The car doesn't recognize that it has been put into reverse. I can put it into reverse and actually back up, but the reverse lights don't activate and the backup camera doesn't come on.

I've checked that all the connectors are connected, there are no missing or unplugged wires. Am I missing something completely basic? Am I an idiot? Input would be appreciated, I can take all the photos you guys need.

Even the connector for your reverse switch? Do you know where that is?

The one on the drivers side of the transmission tunnel? Yes that is connected.

I am an idiot. I went back out to my car and the grey clip for the transmission looked like it was completely connected but wasn't. 1mm more and it clicked in properly.

Hmmm... Check the 7.5 Amp BK/UP LP fuse in the bottom of the Instrument Panel Junction Box Assembly. Look up from underneath it. You may have shorted the light power to ground. It's a pretty simple circuit.
