HOW DOES A NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH WORK?
When you turn your key to start your engine (or push a button), the battery sends a current to your engine’s starter. This tells the starter to fire up your engine so you can get on the road. The neutral safety switch simply disrupts that current if your car is in any gear other than neutral or park.
This is only true for vehicles with an automatic transmission. Manual transmissions have a similar apparatus attached to the clutch pedal. The clutch neutral switch prevents a vehicle from starting unless the clutch pedal is pressed. This is a simpler design than the neutral safety switch for automatics, and it’s cheaper to replace.
