Had the same problem with my 98.5,replaced the nutral-safety switch on the tramsmission,solved my problem.This switch also controlls the backup lights.You can use a jumper on two of the three wires,green and brown I think.Turn the key on ,If it's the neutral-safety switch,lights should work.If you change the switch,be aware that it is below the fluid level.I lost about a quart .Also don't forget the metal washer. Good Luck!

It's a three wire connection on the drivers side of the transmission,just above the pan.Don't know what you consider "upper half",but take my word for it,there will be fluid when you remove the switch from the transmission.
