    switch is on top of tranny, wires run to LCM. LCM activates truck and trailer reverce light.

    it is about version 2.

    pre 02 volvos got small relay in dash.

    what year is truck? I can help you find the problem

    First of all use dashboard computer to read actual LCM codes (MID 216), if no fault code related with truck and trailer rev. light it would be bad rev. swithc wiring, I use to jump wires on MCFC connector under hood to dtermine problem location (in cab ore chassis wiring)

    do you need wiring diagram of LCM?

    yep, you can. all volvos of Version 2 share wiring till nowdays, but they add some units with additional wiring easy to get diagrams. Really LCM is the same from 02 to 2013
