Hello,

The neutral safety switch is located at the top of the transmission near the mount. Here is a guide to help you test the sensor.

Here are diagrams to show you where the sensor is for your car (below)

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken

If the neutral safety switch is bad will it prevent me from fully removing the keys from my ignition.
