Good morning,

I attached the procedure for you for replacing the neutral switch. It is on top of the transmission.

I also attached the wiring diagram for you to view the neutral switch.

I also attached the procedure for replacing the ignition switch. You can slide the switch up and down a little to zero in on the correct alignment for starting in the park and neutral.

Important: Verify that the engine starts only in the Park position or the Neutral position once the PNP switch is installed. Readjust the PNP switch and/or check the shifter and the automatic transaxle range selector cable if the engine starts in any other position. and/or A/T Range Selector Cable Adjustment.
