Keep the starter locked out unless the shifter is in Park or Neutral with the Standard Ignition Neutral Safety Switch NS-156, a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2002 Honda Accord and 2001 Honda Prelude. The switch reads the transmission's shift position and is designed to let the starter circuit close only in Park or Neutral, which helps keep the engine from cranking while the vehicle is in gear. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine and application details.

  • OE ignition know-how: Standard is a global manufacturer of original equipment ignition products. It keeps quality control over the whole process, from components to the finished switch, and draws on decades of research and development built around what technicians need.
  • Copper alloy conductors: Chosen for strong electrical conductivity with low resistive losses.
  • 100% tested: Every switch is checked for both mechanical and electrical switching performance.
  • Robust design: High-grade materials made for the demands of today's service professional.

Signs this switch may need replacing include an engine that won't crank in Park, cranks only in Neutral, or cranks only after the shifter is moved. If a worn neutral safety switch is the cause, this part replaces it. A weak battery, a failing starter or a bad ignition switch can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the starting circuit first.

Yes. NS-156 is listed as a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2002 Honda Accord. The Buyer's Guide tab shows the engine details.

What are signs a neutral safety switch may need replacing?

The engine may not crank in Park, may crank only in Neutral, or may crank only after the shifter is moved. Rule out the battery, starter and ignition switch first.

How is the NS-156 tested?

Standard tests every one of these switches to verify both its mechanical and its electrical switching performance.

What are the switch's conductors made of?

NS-156 uses copper alloy conductors, chosen for strong electrical conductivity with low resistive losses.
