Here is a diagram of a T5. The backup switch is number 7. I am not sure exactly what kind of hookup it is on the T5, but on my T-56 it was just 2 posts sticking out the side of the transmission housing.

that switch is the same on the t-5, just a 2 post switch. most likely your problem but it cant hurt to check the bulbs.

has the switch most likely gone bad or just loose/bad connection?

if bad, where do i get one?

it probably went bad. u can try disconnecting/reconnecting it to see if it works, maybe its a bad connection. u can find those at any ford dealer or auto parts store.
