I had a previous problem of not being able to rev past 5k rpms. i went to nissan and they said two sensor's might be switched on the tranny. so i swtiched the sensors around and now i can go past 5k rpms! im so happy only now my reverse lights seem to be on all the time. any idea's?

There is another sensor that you either took off/hit/switched , I'm guessing

There's a couple of sensors down there that they could have switched. I'm guessing they also switched the reverse position sensor. I've seen people do this on other cars, but never a 240-- so I guess it's possible. As a test, put it in fifth and see if you have reverse lights.

sounds like you flipflopped around your switches:
the 5000rpm thing is for the 5th gear speed sensor. As long as it's connected, you can't rev above 5k while the shifter is in 5th (including while clutch is pressed in)

Before I switched the sensors i could rev past 5k rpms or drive past 5k rpm's in any gear. the only time i could sit there and rev past 5k was when 5th gear was in and the clutch was press in.
