Reverse lights not working FOLLOW UP PROBLEM V70-XC70 1998

Help!

So, I loosened the PNP switch and moved it slightly until the reverse lights stayed on, tightened it all back up, and put it all back together thinking the problem was solved. Then I turned the car on to pull into the garage and the two transmission lights ("Sport" and "Winter") were flashing, as was the transmission arrow on the dashboard display. When I put it into gear, the car seems to be starting in fourth or third gear.

I "cycled" the shifter through all the gears with the ignition on but the engine not running, turned the car on and did the same, and then drove it. It seems to be running fine and the transmission is shifting normally, the reverse lights come on when I put it in reverse, but the transmission arrow on the dashboard display and the sport and winter mode lights near the gear selector are still flashing. What is my next move?

As always, thanks!
