Absolutely the best video I've seen on this repair. Probably one of the best repair/service videos I've seen, period. Clear step by step instructions. Well done.
Just replaced my switch, directions and guidance are spot on with the exception of the plug is glued in from the factory, nice even heat from a heat gun will help.
One thing... You forgot to mention that almost ALL GM TRUCKS (92 to 99) have the connectors silicone glued to the PRNDL switch at the factory. It is nearly impossible to unplug those connectors without breaking the switch. Your truck obviously has had the PRNDL switch replaced previously, because the cable connectors were not glued in place. So the real replacement process needs to tell the end user that they can try to remove the cables, but the switch will break just behind the connector socket on the PRNDL switch.
If u take a heat gun to the plugs it softens the glue and they pull right off then ieven had to heat some up to putt back on before even a good hair dryer will work
This is a good video for a do it yourself er, I have a slippage in my 2003 envoy, and by me watching this video I feel that it will solve my transmission problem.... Thank you....
Man I’m hoping you can help because no one else responded. I have a 97 k2500, the clutch only starts when in a very specific position and also will start in neutral. Starter is fine, ignition cylinder is brand new, distributor is brand new and cap/ root is great. Plugs and wires less that 50,000 miles. Is that a sign of something related to the clutch? Is there some sort of clutch safety switch on a manual transmission? I keep seeing the problem could be a clutch or neutral safety switch but only in automatics.
That part is going to fix my reverse lights to turn on ? Manual transmission gmc sierra 98 The reverse gear doest press the switch light inside the gear box, Brand new switch when I press the switch manually my reverse lights turns on .but doesnt work when is intalled ,Can you help me ? Thanks
I'm replacing my transmission the one on your video is identical to one I took out my problem is with newer transmission my length of transmission shifter is 1 in shorter please help
I just recently replaced the one on my truck (98 gmc1500) but im having troubles with the gauge not lining up n it not going all the way back into park on the switch what do I do
ok so ive done the replacement now i have another problem i can shift from park to drive but cannot go from drive back into park unless i do it manually under the truck at the transmission been racking my brain like crazy
I had the same problem and got a new cable and tightened up but it doesn’t go into park I mean it does but it doesn’t read it if that makes sense so Everytime I start it I have to put it in neutral
Hey, would a bad neutral safety switch cause my 1998 K 2500 to go into drive intermittently while the vehicle is in neutral? I noticed when I had the rear end on stands, that if the vehicle is running and in neutral it kept engaging into drive on and off
I’m having issues starting my truck. 97 chevy. Everything in the starting system is new. Even the relay & ignition switch. Still nothing when I turn the key. But if I jump the relay it starts right up. Could this be my problem?
