no reverse lights
Alright so a year ago I bought a new NSS worked great for about 10 months but then it needed cleaned again. Reverse lights wouldn't work and wouldn't start in neutral. Pulled the NSS off last weekend and everything started working... except the reverse lights. Tried every position in the books but the still wouldn't come on. New bulbs in them and everything. Is there something else that could be causing them to not come on. Its on a 1998 Jeep XJ Sport 4.0L AW4

Do you have a multimeter? Check for continuity on the pins on the NSS harness with the trans in Reverse to see if its closing the circuit.
If you're getting closed circuit, check the fuses. On the older models the backup lamps use the TRANS fuse, don't know about yours. Also the fuse moved around, sometimes under the hood, sometimes on the firewall, dunno about yours.
