Reversing lamp switch is the next thing to check.

No lights eh?

Possibilities include the switch, faulty wiring, faulty ground, faulty bulb sockets...

Check to see if you have power at the socket when the car is placed into reverse. If you find you do, check the condition of the sockets; if not, start chasing the wires and/or ground.

The switch is a likely cause, but it's very possible that it's one of the other things I mentioned as well.

Good luck!

...which he doesn't, in the '89 Town and Country he claims to be working on. In fact, he hasn't got *any* transmission in a 1989 Town and Country, because there appears to be no such thing as an '89 Town and Country, per se. I had initially assumed he was working on the Chrysler-badged, woodgrain-bedecked "Town & Country" version of the K-car wagon, sold as the "LeBaron Town & Country" for a few years in the mid-late '80s, and this is the most likely vehicle he might be referring to, in which case the engine options were 2.2 and 2.5, turbo or TBI -- no V6, and no A604.

The Town & Country you're thinking of, the Chrysler-badged version of the minivan, which *was* equipped with the A604 ProbleMatic, did not appear until model year 1990.

So, original poster: What kind of car are you working on?

Although in classified ads Town and Countries were sometimes abbreviated "T&C" or just "TC", The Chrysler's TC By Maserati is not at all the same as any Chrysler Town & Country every produced. If the original poster has a Chrysler's TC By Maserati, the car is a Chrysler's TC By Maserati, or simply a "TC". However, the original poster specifically said "1989 Town & Country".

OK, med een 3-versnelling of een 4-versnelling autotransmissie? De versnellingselecteur is gedrukte "P R N D 2 1" met de 3er, of "P R N D 3 L" met de 4er.

OK: de 3-versnelling. De achterwaartsdrijft lichteschakelaar is ook de schakelaar die van de aanzetinhibitor het aanzwengelen toelaat slechts wanneer "P" of "N" wordt geselecteerd. Deze schakelaar wordt gevestigd op de voorzijde van de transmissie, en heeft een contactdoos met 3 draden. Hier is het diagram:
