Standard Ignition Back Up Light Switch P/N:LS-257
Restore power to your reverse lamps with the Standard Ignition Back Up Light Switch LS-281 (also written LS281). This switch closes the circuit when the transmission is shifted into reverse, sending power to the back-up lights so traffic behind you sees the vehicle backing up. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1988-1989 Eagle Medallion, 1983-1987 Renault Alliance, and 1984-1986 Renault Encore — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level fitment.
If a failed back-up light switch is the cause of reverse lamps that stay dark or stay on, replacing it with the LS-281 addresses that. Signs the original switch may need replacing include back-up lights that don't illuminate in reverse or that remain lit in other gears.
