Neutral Start Safety Switch

The Neutral Start Safety Switch is a component of the Engine Electrical System in non-aircraft engines. It falls under the supply class Engine Electrical System Components and the supply group Engine Accessories.

The Neutral Start Safety Switch is designed to prevent the engine from starting unless the transmission is in the neutral or park position. It ensures that the engine can only be started when the vehicle is not in gear, reducing the risk of accidental movement.

This switch is typically located on the transmission or the gear selector mechanism. When the transmission is in the neutral or park position, the switch allows the electrical current to flow and enables the engine to start. If the transmission is in any other gear, the switch prevents the current from flowing and prevents the engine from starting.

The Neutral Start Safety Switch is an important safety feature in vehicles, as it helps to prevent unintended vehicle movement and potential accidents.
