The Pontiac Fiero Neutral Safety Switch prevents the engine from cranking until the shifter is in neutral or park for protection against unintended movement. The Neutral Safety Switch is a critical electrical component that is wired in the electrical circuit of the starter. This switch is never closed until the transmission selector communicates that the vehicle is in a safe gear, thus leaving the starter silent when the key is turned while in drive. When neutral or park is selected, the Neutral Safety Switch contacts close, which allows for the flow of current to the ignition system so the engine can start without the risk of sudden lurching. The Neutral Safety Switch on the Pontiac Fiero is essentially the same across all model years. There are some minor design modifications where this switch blends into different linkage housings. Nonetheless, they all use gear position feedback to either break or complete the starter path. The symptoms of failure are quickly recognized by drivers, such as total no-start with the dash lights glowing. They will inspect the Neutral Safety Switch before hunting deeper electrical gremlins. A stuck Neutral Safety Switch halts cranking completely, so it is a good place to check before you follow the wires deeper in their Pontiac Fiero starting system.
