Dude... look at this image I found. That's a butt load of miles... Says it's a 97 with a manual trans.

I think it's what AK suggested. More detail on that here, -

Thanks man lol, I've got that down pat. Never used a tool like that though. At first I thought you were thinking these had the the same type of NSS as in pre-97 models. Kinduh why I explained how to adjust earlier in way you can't go wrong.

But yea that tool would be nice. Just so you know, you don't need tool. You slowly turn the sensor in R until the backup lights illuminate. Have to kill the lights in the garage with the door shut first though lol. But when your turning the sensor, there's resistance so as soon as the reverse lights come on, you can leave it and go turn lights back on, it won't loose it's place lol

But yea, I think it's those indicator torx bolts. Wish I could duplicate the problem though first.

Sooooooo......

The neighbors 80 year old Mom was out shoveling snow by herself today, so my Wife and I went over to help her. My Wife asked where her son was (the guy that made me put up the ugly fence) and she said "he's not here any more" quite solemnly. She didn't seem to want to talk about it any more than that, so we left it alone. I do know that the cops have been over there 4 times in 7 days..... not sure what the hell is going on, but at least he's getting the attention he needs.

Agreed. I think he was roughing his Mom up. Her friend around the corner called a few times in December to have the police do a well check on her. Must have been fire where there was smoke.
