Well once again title says it all. A while back when I put in my clutch and flywheel in my reverse light decided to quit working. I checked the bulbs they are ok. Is there a chance I forgot to connect something? I double checked everything, and it's all in the right place. Has anyone else had this problem when doing transmision work?

either you didnt plug in the reverse light switch on the trans , or the switch is bad
Hmmmm! Where is the switch located at on a 2000?

its on the back side of the trans , if you turn the wheel to the right you can go in from behind the tire and see the switch
I had this problem too and had to replace the switch. Just like 97trd stated you have to get underneath the car. The switch is about the size of a PCV valve and from what I remember it didn't cost much to purchase.
I've got the same issue, didn't even notice until it failed safety inspection because of it. I'll have a look tonight, I have a spare tranny I can snag a switch from if needed.

OK, I swapped switches, still don't work, checked the bulbs and they looked fine, can't get a voltage signal with multimeter at the bulb sockets, checked the fuse (same as turn signals, it's fine), and I'm not sure where to go from here. Any ideas?

you swapped the switch with a new one?
if you have a multimeter, you should be able to check both of those switches easily. set the meter for a resistance check, connect the leads to the connector pins on the switch, press the switch in, and you should see a very low (should be 0 ohms) resistance.

^^^I had a spare tranny, so I grabbed the switch off it, and same thing. I'll check the resistance tomorrow on the switches, and I've found a schematic which might help. I found what looks to be a wire in that harness that's missing some insulation, so I just hope that wire still carries current. Thanks for the help!
