Also can be caused from idling too high for too long,or holding constant revs for too long without moving. It is controled also by the speed sensor at the back of the engine.

Default My 2004 660R Raptor flashing reverse light

I purchased a 04 Raptor last fall and the red reverse light would start flashing after a short drive. I did all of the recommendations for fixing this with no luck. It didn't affect the running conditions so I've been ignoring it. I recently replaced the CDI box with a BLACKBOX brand CDI for an unrelated issue. Not only did it raise my top end rev limit, and deleted the reverse rev limit, it also fixed the flashing reverse light. Hope this helps someone.

Clean connections, check wire for any worn spots in the coating... and last break out a test light and also after a multimeter to check current and resistance. Sometimes easy solutions fix confusing situations.
