Yes on the pin 44, but as your auto ecu will no longer be connected or working you will need to run the reverse wires seperately to the loom plug on the drivers wing.

 

REVERSE LIGHTS

The auto trans has a solenoid harness attached to it. This harness connects to the plugs right behind the drivers headlight. This can be discarded with the automatic (You will need to cut off ). the inhibitor switch plug (The plug behind the pass side headlight with 7 wires). Cut the plug off of the discarded transmission harness and open it up to reveal the wires. This plug contains the 2 wires for the reverse light circuitry (Black and Green). I have been told that the colors can sometimes vary. Simply turn your key into the "on" position and touch the two wires together to check if your reverse lights come on.

 

All you must do now is run a new pair of wires from the black and green ones on the connector to the reverse light switch on the 5pd trans. Use plastic covers, tape and zip ties to do a clean job and to keep the wires from touching the hot exhaust system. To finish it up cut off the two extra connectors dangling behind the headlight since the automatic trans solenoids are no longer needed.

 

Here is the layout of the pins, wire colour and where they go on the plugs

Yes the back up light colour is green/white from pin 20 on the auto ecu, it goes to the inhibiter switch, which is removed, so direct to pin 20 will work and ground to the gearbox or good ground on the body.

 

Doing it directly to the plug if you were removing the auto ecu.
