What Is This On My T-14

New to wrenching on Jeeps, any idea what this guy is circled below? Thanks!

 

Backup light switch.

 

I thought so... Time to source a new one...

 

Got mine at napa. I think Advance should have it also.

 

The last one I got at the flaps was like thirty five bucks. Ouch

 

I deleted my back up lights.

 

Thats what the PO did to this rig. I like having them, worst case scenario I can just wire up a switch on the dash ha

 

Some locales (ie the great state of Massachusetts) require them if the car came with them.

Standard NS20 More Information for STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS NS20 is listed for the '77 T-15 but it should work on a T-14. My book shows the same part for the later T-14, so it should work fine.

 

Awesome thank you!

 

Putting together an order from RockAuto that minimizes shipping can be a chore. Typically I fill my cart with all the comparable parts from different sources, until I cover all the parts I need. Then I try to assemble an order that gets everything I want and uses the fewest sources (ship-from locations), by deleting the "shipping outliers." This typically minimizes shipping cost. Then you have to compare the lower shipping to the possibly higher parts cost of the parts from the optimal location. Ugh.

If you have Amazon Prime, look for parts there too, especially if you only need a few things. More and more parts are showing up on Amazon, but there's no effective search for parts on their site. So try putting in the Jeep PN or the supplier's PN to get specific parts. For example, Amazon.com: Standard Motor Products NS20 Neutral/Backup Switch: Automotive - it's not a Prime part, but the price includes shipping. Buying with Prime costs a couple dollars more - I would use Prime if I had any doubts that the part will work - then I would be sure that Amazon's liberal return policies apply.

 

But you save 10% sales tax here so it really works out pretty well for some of us without a local parts house anymore.

 

yup but i do that when i go to the parts store too

 

Yup, just snatched it off Amazon! I always bounce back between Rockauto and Amazon...
