I cleaned the connections on the reverse switch, still no lights.    My multimeter is out of commission (will fix or replace tomorrow), so have yet to check the lines at the switch and the switch itself.   What values (voltage) should I expect to find?  I presume measuring the switch will yield zero/"infinite"?

If it is the switch, is it a pretty straight forward replacement (in the event the switch is found before the Bentley arrives).  The '66 doesn't have reverse lights, so this is a new piece for me.
