TR2/3/3A Switches on the top of an Overdrive

Hello All- I’m wiring up a TR4 overdrive unit that I installed into my TR3A and notice there are three switches on the top of the case. I think I’ve correctly wired up the lockout switches (confirm, please?) but I have no idea what the third switch is for. Does anyone have any idea what this does? Secondly, where should the OD harness ground ring attach?

I believe the 2 switches are correct. The 3rd switch is for a reverse light. . The ground is easily attached under any of the bolts holding the top cover onto the tranny.
