Neutral Safety Switch & Control Cable

NOTE: Neutral safety switch may also be known as transaxle range switch.
  1. Place gearshift lever in Neutral. Loosen control cable adjusting nuts at transaxle control lever, to allow slack in control cable. Loosen neutral safety switch bolts, and turn switch until .472" (12 mm) wide end of control lever aligns with .472" (12 mm) flange on switch body or until .197" (5 mm) diameter hole in lever and switch line up. See Fig 1 .
  2. Tighten neutral safety switch bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  . Ensure transaxle control lever and gearshift lever handle are both in Neutral. Adjust cable adjusting nuts to remove slack in control cable. Ensure gearshift lever operates smoothly. Drive vehicle to ensure transaxle shifts into each gear position selected.
