Keep your reverse lights working when you shift into reverse with the Beck/Arnley Back Up Light Switch (P/N 201-1965), a direct-fit 1998-2007 Nissan Frontier switch that also drops into the 2001-2002 Nissan Pathfinder and 2000-2004 Nissan Xterra. This switch senses when the transmission is shifted into reverse and completes the electrical circuit that powers the back-up (reverse) lamps, illuminating the area behind the vehicle and warning others you're backing up.
Beck/Arnley builds it to match OE form, fit and function for foreign-nameplate applications, working with a trusted global sourcing network to deliver OE-quality parts.
- Direct OE replacement: matches original-equipment form, fit and function for the listed applications.
- Made-to-fit connection: designed for the OE wiring harness and plugs for a plug-in installation.
- Corrosion-resistant materials: premium materials help resist corrosion.
- Durable build: high-quality construction built for durability.
If your back-up lights fail to come on in reverse, or stay on, a faulty switch may be the cause — diagnose the circuit first, since other faults can produce the same symptom. If a failed back-up light switch is the cause, this unit replaces it.
See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level details.
