neutral safety switch
I have been trying to replace the neutral safety switch in my 73 cheyenne super 10 454
I have been back to the part store 3 times trying to find a switch that resembles the one in my truck, what they say is supposed to go in there does not match what is in there. My truck has the 400 turbo, hydromatic trans? not sure what it's called but have heard it called both names by several people. any help with what this part is supposed to look like would be helpfull. mine has 2, 2 post prongs on at center bottom and one at top left. also the plastic is white. |

Re: neutral safety switch
Post a picture of what you have. This will make ID'ing part easier. It is probably P/N switch mounted on the column???

Yes that is what it is, Orielly's calls it the neutral safety switch but peoplealso call it the park neutral switch. mounts at the top rear of the column |

I just got the closest match I could find and it looks like the problem is in the steering column. The truck will shift in and out of gear now but the the key can turn and come out of the ignition and truck is still running...I messed with it till I was able to shut off the truck untill I can do some further investigation to whats causing this new problem now. |

Re: neutral safety switch
It could be the ignition switch on the column, I dont know if you know which one ,it would be the one in the middle of the column with all the wires on it.
