SYMPTOMS OF A BAD NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH 

I have a SEEKONE SK860 scanner that I borrowed from a buddy.

What is the solenoid? The starter? What do you mean by "jump it from the solenoid with a screwdriver"?

?¿?¿?

Having a no start issue ,, did you hear a that 1 click or nothing at all ,, i am having the one click ,, not sure what to replace first , thanks in advance

My starter just spins

To anyone who’s confused, u can just put it in neutral and if it starts the switch is either incorrectly adjusted or is faulty, pretty simple on this one ( to rule out ig switch or starter without doing the whole diagnosis )

@@maxximum18 what did you find out about yours, Skyhawk?

@@concacnay that's not always the case. Sometimes a bad NSS can be failing even if no crank in any gear.

U won’t win 😐

Because your on acid. It didn't really happen you just thought it did lol

Transmission mounts/ bushings?

@@dardenoakley8432 I’ve replaced all the mounts. It shifts fine. When I come to a stop it shakes. I kind of thinking it might be the flex plate. I had the transmission replaced about a year ago.

@@saucysuishi341 I have a Acura rL iv been thru quit a bit ,iv heard a lot of people saying they’ve had a similar sounding vibration that’s the trans bushing/mount , I don’t know much about your vehicle but the Acura has a 3.5 v6 that has a balance shaft that reduces shaking ,that has to be timed the right way the motor will vibrate, not sure if your vehicle has one

My car just decided to not turn over in nuetral or park..I just bought a starter relay to see if it'll start..wish me luck but I'm feeling like its the nuetral switch

@1UPvocapcovers Did this end up being the issue with your vehicle? I'm experiencing the exact same symptoms. 🙏

@@RR1976 I'll be honest with you, I got rid of the car shortly after. Had a bunch of hidden issues that showed up all at once. I'm willing to bet it's the safety switch for sure, though.

Neutral Switch will not cause car to die once it is started. It only keeps the starter from engaging.

Goodman thank you!

Your car will not start in reverse so yes they need to line up. Your manual lever controls the electronic reading in the transmission so it is essential that these are lined up

In classic cars a lot of times or things that you know you do a lot of hard racing and running hard sometimes even if you do the neutral safety switch it's still going to be a little bit off or the transmission is not going to catch because of the linkage underneath a little bit so don't forget to check that linkage even though it doesn't seem like it's related cuz those got all pop into the gear they got to turn right and for it to all start the transmission anyway turning or you know those words I'm having a bad brain day you know what I'm saying figure it out yourself haha

Ha another rant I was training today doing lots of running in the hills so of course I had to take my broncade ephedra performance enhancing lung asthma medication whatever they're calling it in the Olympics these days anyway sorry for the rants I was originally going to say yes the computer thing technical technically and I've noticed this since beginning again with my autism and I noticed patterns I didn't have to know anything about sci-fi or big brother or whatever to notice that once the computer started going computerized and the fuel injection anything like that we were losing power over being able to put make the vehicle work our way in our best mat interest. So theoretically the little computer module is supposed to be written in a way that it will not override everything and just do whatever it wants without waiting for the neutral safety switch and all the other old school safety implements to do their thing first that is totally potential for the computer chip and I have noticed this before people started talking about ai and how it starts learning you know it from us and teaching itself things and then just rewriting all the stuff that is that we have known to be true for our whole lives and giving us false information now because it's just spitting back whatever word salad had heard from 20 different people that don't know what they're saying and make then it's decides to make up its own thesis and yeah we're all f***** anyway so never say never and this is why what the author hear the main thing the author said is yeah I don't don't let anything go out yeah you can start it in a certain thing and get it to go but it's not a good idea you need to take care of that problem right away because that is a huge safety issue especially if you got a car that has a computer system the old school ones not as much but still you don't want things that don't go gears forward or years backwards or start when you're like stuck in the middle of the freeway all the sudden if the car stalls and you can't get it to go back turn back on because the linkage don't line up or the safety switch doesn't work correctly and you have to get out there and try to put them jump that then you're going to get run over and that's not funny can't take that back and that's all I'm going to say grandma Chevy cat out maybe

Btw I have a 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT 4L with 120,200 miles on it. Sorry I forgot that very important information but I'm freezing to death outside trying to figure out this nightmare!

Given the symptoms you've described with your 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac XLT 4L, it sounds like there may be multiple issues at play. However, focusing on the immediate problem of no crank/no start and the instrument panel lights remaining on, along with the key's ability to be inserted and removed in any position, suggests a potential issue with the ignition switch. Make sure to diagnose carefully. I am only giving my opinion. Here is a video of a no crank no start. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q_Xw6fmvFZQ.html&ab_channel=EasyAutoFix

I appreciate any advice I can get in order to figure this out. I have been over hundreds of forums and videos but nothing has described all of the issues that I have with mine. Thanks a lot and I'll keep you posted.

I ended up having a guy who I work with referred me to a guy who is a great and very experienced mechanic told me that he is almost positive that the problem with my truck is a broken ignition linkage between my ignition lock cylinder and my ignition switch. I haven't had time to check it out dealing with the Department of Transportation system being down from December 27th that I know of and not opening back up until January 16th that lost my money order that I sent all of my documents with certified and priority mail that shows the amount that was sent along with it being sent to the Clark's office but they couldn't find it and it hasn't been cashed but I had to pay for it again! Even though they screwed up and lost it!!! Grr I'll update everyone on my truck soon as I get a chance to work on it.

That has happened to me it came ut to be my cam sensor or crankshaft sensor And on my other car the fuel pump assembly the feed line was bent But most positive when no spark or fuel seems like camshaft or crankshaft sensor

@@jtorres145145 if it were the cam or crank sensor I would think it wouldn't run at all. I used a jumper wire to bipass the auto shut down relay and it's runs and drives but none of the gauges work and all the warning lights stay on and some other electrical things done work

I have same issue with my 392

I have a 04 Chevy 2500 hd. Have all power but when you turn the key nothing happens. None of my gauges are working, bypass the starter and it’ll turn over but won’t start because it’s not getting any spark. I found this video because I feel like the truck thinks it’s still in gear. I’ll keep you updated on what I find out. Unless you have found the problem with yours?

Happens to me and it was the arm (float) on the fuel pump had gotten stuck.. so it wouldn’t start even though it had half a tank of gas. Replaced pump and worked .

Before buying a part make sure you check if it has spark, fuel pressure good battery and if any fuses blown Check for grounds compression and timing marks check if any codes come up as it could be cam or crank sensor or maf sensor even the catalyst converter

Could be this , spark plugs , not having them gapped , ignition coils , mass air flow sensor , a bunch of other things too. Go to a parts store like autozone or oreillys or whatever is similar near to u and if ur check engine lights on u can get it done for free and get a print out of what it is too

@@blakedino2885 not having the spark plugs gapped?

Had similar problem. Turned out to be a faulty camshaft position sensor. Not sure if you got it fixed or not as this was 5 months ago but I figured I’d let you know in case anyone else reads this and could help them

I have a 17 odyssey and that light is your transmission or in my case the torque converter

I second this question

Yess!

Nope
