Moved my reverse lights out of the Airlift bumper, installed a new shifter that had a reverse switch
Did some rewiring and got the reverse lights to come on when I go into reverse as long as I have the lights on
Not bad for a weekends work
Have you looked at the tech manuals linked on the first page of the HMMWV forum? Start at figure 268 and see if that gets you what you need. Good Luck!
