The neutral safety switch and backup light switch are one in the same. You have to replace it. It is located on the transmission where the shifter connects to it.

This is part of the neutral safety / transmission shift location switch / back up light switch. It is mounted on the transmission behind the shift sector shaft. The shift cable will run from the shifter to the transmission and this switch is mounted there on the side of the transmission.

There is no relay for the backup lights. The circuit is powered by the keyswitch, runs thru a 10 amp fuse on the interior fuse block, then goes through a switch mounted on the transmission, and on to the lights. The switch is on the front of the manual transmission, and on the lower front of the automatic.
