About the neutral safety switch:
The neutral safety switch (also known as the inhibitor switch) is a safety device that prevents your car from starting if the transmission is not set to park or neutral. This stops the car from moving forward unexpectedly when the engine starts.
The location of the neutral safety switch depends on the position of your car’s gear selected / shifter. If your gear selector/shifter is on the floor or the console, the neutral control switch could be mounted to the car’s transmission. If the shifter is on your steering column, then the neutral safety switch will often be located beneath the gear shifter.
Some manual vehicles have a similar device located under the clutch pedal. This prevents the car from starting without the clutch pedal being pressed down. As a result, vehicle safety is improved due to the car not moving suddenly or unexpectedly while cranking or starting the engine.
