Keep the starter cranking only in Park or Neutral and your reverse lamps lighting on cue with the Standard Ignition Back-Up Light Switch / Neutral Safety Switch (NS-199). It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 2000-2011 Ford Focus, 2010-2013 Ford Transit Connect, and 1999-2003 Mazda Protege. This part is cataloged under both names, so you may see it listed as a back-up light switch or a neutral safety (park/neutral position) switch.
Dual function: serves as both the neutral safety switch and the back-up light switch for the transmission.
Neutral safety side: allows the starter circuit to energize only when the shifter is in Park or Neutral.
Back-up light side: closes the reverse-lamp circuit when the transmission is shifted into reverse.
Signs it may need replacing: the engine won't crank in Park or Neutral, the reverse lights stay dark, or the engine starts while in gear. Diagnose the cause first, since these symptoms can have other sources.
If a failed switch is the cause of your no-start or dead reverse lamps, this drops in to replace it.
It's a dual-purpose transmission switch. The neutral safety side lets the starter crank only in Park or Neutral, while the back-up light side turns on the reverse lamps when you shift into reverse.
Which vehicles does it fit?
It fits the 2000-2011 Ford Focus, 2010-2013 Ford Transit Connect, and 1999-2003 Mazda Protege. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm it matches your vehicle.
What are the signs this switch may have failed?
Common signs are the engine not cranking in Park or Neutral, reverse lights that stay off, or the engine starting while in gear. Diagnose the cause first, as these symptoms can have other sources.
Is this the same as a park/neutral position switch?
Yes. The neutral safety switch is also called the park/neutral position switch, and this part combines that function with the back-up light switch.
What numbers does this part interchange with?
It interchanges with S26378, JA4359, NS5891, 5S4Z7F293AA, 7S4Z7F293A, SW5268, SW6259, SW6538, XS4Z7F293AB, FN0121444, and FN1121444.
