Keep your engine from cranking in gear with the Standard Ignition Neutral Safety Switch NS-308 — the switch that signals the starter circuit so the engine can only crank when the automatic transmission is in Park or Neutral. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2015 Acura ILX, 2002-2006 Acura RSX, 2004-2008 Acura TSX, 2003-2012 Honda Accord, 2006-2014 Honda Civic, 2012-2015 Honda Crosstour, 2002 and 2005-2014 Honda CR-V, 2003-2011 Honda Element, and 2007-2008 Honda Fit; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application and engine list.
- Copper alloy conductors: provide superior electrical conductivity with low resistive losses.
- 100% tested: every switch is verified for both mechanical and electrical switching performance.
- Robust design & high-grade materials: built to meet the stringent demands of today's service professionals.
- OE ignition expertise: made by a global manufacturer of original-equipment ignition products with quality control from componentry to finished product.
Signs the original may need replacing include no crank in Park or Neutral, a starter that only engages when the shifter is jiggled, or crank in gears where it shouldn't. If a failed neutral safety switch is the cause, this replaces it — diagnose the circuit before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the neutral safety switch do?
It signals the starter circuit so the engine can only crank when the automatic transmission is in Park or Neutral, helping prevent an unintended start while in gear.
Will this fit my vehicle?
It's a direct-fit replacement for applications like the 2003-2012 Honda Accord, 2006-2014 Honda Civic, and 2002-2006 Acura RSX. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year, make, and model.
What are signs this switch may need replacing?
Common signs include no crank in Park or Neutral, cranking only when the shifter is nudged, or cranking in gears where it shouldn't. Diagnose the circuit before replacing.
What is this switch made from?
It uses copper alloy conductors for superior electrical conductivity with low resistive losses, plus robust design and high-grade materials to meet professional service demands.
Is each switch tested?
Yes. Every switch is 100% tested to verify both mechanical and electrical switching performance before it leaves the manufacturer.
