Where is the park/neutral position switch located? How do you replace it? car won't start in Park unless shifter is jiggled. It will start in neutral. I have looked by the shift cable and starter and can't identify it.

The neutral safety switch or gear range sensor is located inside transmission and the valve body must be removed first. Here is a guide to help you step by step with instructions in the diagrams below to show you how on your car. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
