Hi, the switch is under the console. The wire from the interlock that runs the starter relay with a ground signal is blue with a white or black stripe. Please let me know if you have questions, and thanks for using FixYa.

Where is the neutral safety switch located on a 06 infinity g35 manual transmission

A manual trans doesn't have a neutral safety switch. You should have a clutch pedal switch.

Is there a clutch safety switch on a 1994 nissan ultima or why would the car not start but has power everywhere else won't turn over or anything.

all standard vehicles have a neutral safety switch for many decades so people won`t try starting them in gear causing damage or hurting someone. it maybe open. its located at the base of the clutch pedal and as you push on the pedal all the way down it closes the switch to allow power to start the car. its a 2 wire switch so you can jump the 2 wires and see if the car will start. make sure the car is in neutral.

92 olds cutlass supreme, shifter moves into gear, but car will not move. Help

It\'s right where the shifter cable goes into the shaft, look
right next to the steering cloumn under the hood,the switch
won\'t keep the car from moving tho,it just wouldn\'t start.But you
could look there to make sure the cable hasn\'t broken or come
unhooked. The cable goes to an arm about 3 inches long just
make sure the arm moves when shifting.

Need location of neutral safty switch on my 1990 cadilac broughm 350 engin e

The neutral safety switch is located on the top and toward the base of the steering column almost to the floorboard.

To remove or install the neutral safety switch be sure to place the shifter in the neutral position, then dis-connect the wire connector at the neutral safety switch, then remove the securing screws and then remove the neutral safety switch.

Install the new neutral safety switch and do not over-tighten the securing screws, then remove the alignment pin and re-connect the wire connector to the neutral safety switch. (be sure not to remove the alignment pin until the neutral safety switch has been installed)

Check to be certain that the vehicle only starts in "Park" or "Neutral". Here is an image to help assist you, and let me know if you require any further assistance.
