Where is the location of the neutral safety switch on a 1996 Dodge Ram 1500? Link to a diagram would also help
The key rotates all the way to the "Start" position, but nothing happens. The buzzers buzz, the lights light, and the key turns, but nothing cranks. The battery has plenty of juice, and is only 6 months old.
If anyone could send me a link to a diagram where the neutral safety switch is, I'd sure appreciate it. I believe it's under the dash, and probably near the brake pedal, but I'd hate to start tearing into stuff only to find out that I was wrong and that it was a waste of my time.
Thanks

Service and Repair
Notes
Raise and support vehicle, then place a suitable container beneath switch.
Unscrew switch from transmission case, allowing fluid to drain into container.
Move shift lever to Park and then to Neutral position and ensure switch operating lever is centered in switch opening in case.
Install a new seal on switch, then thread switch into transmission case. Torque to 25 ft-lbs then check and add transmission fluid as required.
Ensure switch operates properly.

Neutral safety switch could be on the transmission.
Right next to where the selector rod goes into the transmission.
The stuff under the dash, is backup light switch.
I think...........
