Reverse Lockout Working with a harness for a 411 PCM - harness is missing the reverse lock out. What does the PCM do or sense to prevent shifting into reverse? Guess I don't fully understand what the PCM does in this situation. I know many wire it through the brake pedal but do they do away with the PCM trigger and just do a stand-alone wire from a voltage source to the lockout on the trans with a brake switch in between? Thanks. -Bob

Does anyone know if reversing the plug wires on the rev louckout plug will cause any issues? I had to wire in the Revese Lockout plug to my Auto wiring harness and I'm not sure if the wires are reversed. Does it matter?

Ok, so for those that wire it through the brake pedal is that done by disabling the PCM control wiring and directly wiring to the solenoid with another power source through the brake switch? Or can one retain the PCM control but run it through a brake switch also?
