Hi,
My 96 Sentra with auto trans sometimes does not crank, when in Park, but will crank if you move it to neutral. I'm trying to find the "neutral safety switch" or the "park/neutral switch". I looked under the trans and see there are 3 wires going into it. But I cannot see anything moving on the trans as I shift the gear selector through the gears.
Could the switch be inside the shifter console inside the car ?
Thanks

Probably. That's where the switch was on one of my automatics. It turned out to be a quarter (25 cent piece) that fell in there.
Try This.....

it's called an inhibitor switch, it's located on the outside of the transmission.
Thanks for the info, everyone. I'll go out and look at it again and see if I see something new that I missed before. And yes, a quarter did fall into the console once in this car !

I got the console out, and found the quarter in there, but it wasn't affecting anything. I'm 25 cents richer now. I also found the inhibitor switch on the trans by having the gf move the gear selector around as I watched the levers. Thanks, NissTech.
