Keep your Subaru cranking only when it should with the Standard Ignition Neutral Safety Switch NS-380. This park/neutral position switch is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: 1998-2003 and 2005-2008 Subaru Impreza, 1999-2008 Subaru Forester, 2000-2008 Subaru Legacy, 2000-2008 Subaru Outback, and 2003-2006 Subaru Baja.

  • Core job: senses the automatic transmission's shifter position and allows the starter circuit to engage only when the transmission is in Park or Neutral.
  • Direct-fit: a direct-fit replacement for the listed Subaru applications.
  • Replacement part: supplies a fresh switch when the original has failed and needs to be swapped.

Signs the original switch may need replacing include an engine that won't crank in Park or Neutral, or that cranks with the shifter in another position. Because a no-crank condition can have other causes, diagnose the fault before replacing; if a failed neutral safety switch is the cause, the NS-380 replaces it.
