Good To Know

Q: Can a bad neutral safety switch cause a vehicle to start in gear? A: Yes, a failed or shorted switch could allow the starter to engage in Drive or Reverse, which is a significant safety hazard.

Q: Why does an engine refuse to crank even when shifted into Park? A: The contact points inside the safety switch may be worn or out of alignment, preventing the circuit from completing to send power to the starter.
