FWD Models

  1. There are 2 different neutral safety/back-up light switches used on FWD models. See Fig 1 . To adjust switch, place gear selector lever in the "N" position.
  2. Ensure shift cable is adjusted correctly and transaxle lever is in Neutral position. Loosen switch attaching screws. Rotate switch on shifter assembly to align adjustment hole with carrier tang hole.
  3. Insert a 3/32" (2.4 mm) wire gauge about 5/8" into switch holes. Tighten attaching screws. Remove wire gauge. New switches may have plastic pin installed in hole. Plastic pin is designed to shear off during shift lever operation.
