posted by  someone claiming to be chas on  Tue Oct 28 07:47 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Yesterday drove from DC to Chicago. Turnpike all the way. 60 to 75mph, Stopped for gas in Ohio and filled up with 93,Got back in car and no start..just a click. Tried to jump it for about 15 minutes, no joy. Went to call roadside tow when tried again and bang, successful start; off I continued to Chicago. Since then all fine..Any ideas?

    Move the shifter back and forth really fast for about 10 seconds. This will temporarily clean the contacts inside the switch assembly. It's located on the passenger side of the trans and is right next to the exhaust pipe. I have problems with my car's backup lights si I bought thw PNP switch and I need to install it.

    Seems like neutal safety switch. Next time it happens try jiggling shifter while turning ingnition key. Also you can try starting in neutral. The switch might just be loose on its mounting. Good luck
