10.7.2

Neutral Start Switch

The neutral start switch, Fig. 10.19, prevents the
engine from being started with the transmission in
forward or reverse.

The switch is located on the transmission control
valve assembly. The switch is normally open and
is closed when a switch actuating pin presses a
spring-loaded ball in the neutral start switch.

Test the neutral start circuit as follows:

• Starter MUST NOT operate with travel

select lever in FORWARD or REVERSE
positions.

• Starter MUST NOT operate when park

lock is DISENGAGED.

• Starter MUST operate with travel select

lever in NEUTRAL position.

If the starter fails to rotate the engine with the
travel select lever in NEUTRAL and the ignition
key in the START:

1.

Check for problems in the shift lever linkage.

2.

Check the neutral start switch, it may not be
closing.

3.

Remove the switch from the control valve
assembly and check the actuator pin in the
control valve assembly for free movement.

4.

Make a continuity check across the terminals
of the switch with the actuator ball manually
depressed. If circuit is open replace the
neutral start switch.
