So I went for the...Inspection...was gonna throw in a few 4 letter words, but decided to wait. There were a few things to fix that I overlooked...One of them was the Neutral Safety switch...(well, I always push in the clutch before I start it anyways, so had no idea it didn't work!)...I checked the switch for continuity...it's fine...so I checked the voltage on the plug...10.9 mv...yes, millivolts! Before I start tearing apart the harness to chase these 2 wires...anyone have/had similar issues? :scratchhead:

I had this issue, pretty sure there are 2 wires coming from the switch, one going to a 12v supply somewhere, and the other to a small intermittent 'push-button' switch under the clutch pedal that is activated at full travel. Maybe that little switch failed - loosen the 10mm nut and detach the cable clip and it comes out.

 

I just pulled it mine out and bypassed the whole interlock thing, but I think the dash-switch would be cool in a future life, maybe to activate an airlocker or something.

I was basically panicking to get it fixed for inspection...but I took it to another shop and they "overlooked it" and passed the truck...hmm, I don't think I have the dash switch that you are talking about? I took the switch apart first to troubleshoot it and the switch is fine, but the lead wire was only showing 10.9 millivolts...I think the relay is probably bad or something... :scratchhead:
