Reverse Lights Not Working

Some of you may remember the difficulty I had getting my 74 Dart started after restoring it. I finally broke down and took it to a mechanic who kept it two weeks and finally got it running. Prior to taking it to him, the reverse lights worked. After bringing it home, the reverse lights do not work.

I just learned that the mechanic changed the neutral safety switch when he had my car. The Dart is an automatic transmission, column shift and the old neutral safety switch was the original from 1974 when I bought the car.

Q. 1 - Could the new switch be the reason the reverse lights do not work?
Q. 2 - How would I test to find the problem? I have a multimeter.

All bulbs in the brake lights and reverse lights are new. Brake lights, turn signals, and flashers work fine.
