- Material: Metal
- Condition: New
A neutral safety switch lets the starter engage only in park or neutral. If the engine will not crank in either position, or cranks while the transmission is in gear, a worn switch can be the cause. A weak battery, a faulty starter or a shift linkage out of adjustment can be behind the same signs, so find the cause before buying.
