A neutral safety switch lets the engine crank only in Park or Neutral. Signs of a worn one can include no crank in Park or Neutral, or cranking in other gears. A weak battery, a worn starter or a misadjusted shift linkage can also keep an engine from cranking, so pin down the cause before buying a switch.
