I went to AutoZone cause my check engine light went on. The code that came up was p18915
Transmission neutral safety switch circuit failure.

What does this mean?

Help I am a woman.

Hello

This indicates that your Park/Neutral Safety Switch is faulty. This switch is a safety feature which prevents the vehicle from starting unless the transmission is in the Park or Neutral gear. It is not a major repair at all and it is not going to harm your transmission so don't worry about a hefty tranny repair bill ;)

Thanks for using 2CarPros. Com!
