How to replace the Neutral Safety Switch on Chevrolet Colorado?

To replace the park/neutral back up switch, start by using the parking brake, while moving the transmission to neutral. Lift and apply support to the vehicle and remove the nut holding the transmission control lever to the manual shaft, then pull off the lever. Loosen the electrical connector from the switch and take out the bolts that hold the park/neutral back up switch down at the transmission. If the switch won't slide off the manual shaft you want to file any burrs from the outside of the manual shift shaft. Mount the new park/neutral back up switch onto the transmission manual shaft, lining up the switch hub flats with the manual shaft flats, and sliding it from until the mounting bracket contacts the transmission bosses. However, if there is a new switch that needs installation, the positive assurance bracket will align it accordingly, and a park neutral switch aligner ( J 41364-A) is not needed. Loosen the two bolts for the park/neutral back up switch, and position the park neutral switch aligner (J 41364-A) on the switch by placing the slots against the tool's tabs. .rotate until the upper locator pin of the tool lines up with the slot on the switch, then tighten the bolts to 27 n.m (20 lb ft). However, remove the park neutral switch aligner (J 41364-A), and if necessary, the positive assurance bracket. Reconnect the electrical connector back to the switch and reinstall the transmission control lever to the manual shaft secured with the nut of 20 n.m (15 lb ft). Lower the vehicle, adjust the automatic transmission range selector cable and check the switch for the right operation that ensures that the engine runs only when the vehicle's p (PARK) or n (NEUTRAL) position is reached. Change the switch if it does not work correctly.

The first step to replace the transaxle range switch is to remove the battery tray. Check the transaxle manual shaft in the neutral (N) while engaging the park brake and the control shift lever in neutral (N). Then take off the range switch lever transaxle and unplug the electrical connectors (3, 5) from the range switch. Use a screwdriver to bend down the lockwasher tabs toward the nut, and then remove nut lock tab washer and flat washer from manual shaft in that same order. Follow up with the elimination of the transaxle range switch bolt , stud , and flat washers as well as the transaxle range switch . For installation, the transaxle range switch is attached from the manual shaft lever, the washer stud and the bolt , hand threading should be done at this stage only. Install the flat washer, lock tab washer, and m, while tightening the nut to 7 Nm (62 inch lbs.). Make sure manual shaft is still in neutral (N) and bend the lock washer tabs to fasten the nut. Utilize the J 45404 Transmission Indicator Alignment Tool (J 45404) on the manual shaft, and turn the transaxle range switch until the neutral base-line on the switch lines up with the indicator line on the J 45404. Tighten the transaxle range switch bolt and stud to 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) then remove the J 45404 from manual shaft. Reconnect the electrical connectors (3, 5) back to the transaxle range switch, replace the transaxle range switch lever, and ultimately replace the battery tray. Once you are done with the installation and adjustment, ensure the engine starts only in park (P) or neutral (N); if it begins else where, start by moving the switch.

To replace the pnp switch, the first step is disconnecting the switch electrical connector while removing the attaching bolts and the park/neutral position switch assembly. For installation, set the shift shaft to the park/neutral position, and line up the flats on the shift shaft with those on park/neutral switch. Mount the park/neutral position switch mounting bolts and tighten them to 24 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). Connect the switch electrical connector while the engine starts only in p (Park) or n (Neutral); the previous step does not make any sense - if exercises are performed an abnormal way, the switch will have to be set in multiple positions which can cause improper training. The exercises should be readjusted to have everything right. Next, align the transmission control shifter assembly into the n (Neutral) notch in the detent plate, loosen attaching bolts for the park/neutral position switch and rotate the switch onto the shifter assembly to position the service adjustment pacing the cast hole with the carrier tang hole.

A: To replace the pnp switch, the first step is disconnecting the switch electrical connector while removing the attaching bolts and the park/neutral position switch assembly. For installation, set the shift shaft to the park/neutral position, and line up the flats on the shift shaft with those on park/neutral switch. Mount the park/neutral position switch mounting bolts and tighten them to 24 nm (18 ft. Lbs.). Connect the switch electrical connector while the engine starts only in p (Park) or n (Neutral); the previous step does not make any sense - if exercises are performed an abnormal way, the switch will have to be set in multiple positions which can cause improper training. The exercises should be readjusted to have everything right. Next, align the transmission control shifter assembly into the n (Neutral) notch in the detent plate, loosen attaching bolts for the park/neutral position switch and rotate the switch onto the shifter assembly to position the service adjustment pacing the cast hole with the carrier tang hole. Insert a 2.34mm (3/32 inch) maximum diameter gauge pin to a depth of 9.0mm (9/64 inch) and tighten the bolts to 24 nm (18 ft. Lbs. Konnte).
