Start Safely: Neutral Safety & Backup Switches
Does your car start while in "Drive"? That is a dangerous failure of the Neutral Safety Switch (NSS). This switch also typically controls your Reverse/Backup Lights.
Functions:
-
Safety Interlock: Prevents the starter from engaging unless the shifter is in Park or Neutral.
-
Backup Lights: Turns on the white reverse lights when you shift into Reverse.
-
Fitment: We carry the specific switches for column-shift and floor-shift automatics (C4, Torqueflite, Turbo Hydra-Matic).
