    Q:
    What is the function and adjustment process of the neutral safety switch on Buick Century? Posted by Customer
    A:
    The neutral safety switch prevents the engine from starting in any transmission position except NEUTRAL or PARK, and it is located on the upper side of the steering column under the instrument panel for column shift cars and inside the shift console for floor shift models. For a column-mounted switch, first place the shifter in NEUTRAL, then loosen the screws securing the switch. Fit a 0.090 in. gauge pin into the outer hole on the switch cover and move the switch until the gauge pin drops into the alignment hole on the inner slide, then tighten the securing screws and remove the gauge pin. For a console-mounted switch, place the shifter in PARK, remove the center console, and loosen the switch securing screws. Fit a 0.090 in. gauge pin into the outer hole on the switch cover, move the switch until the gauge pin drops into the alignment hole on the inner slide, tighten the securing screws, and remove the gauge pin. Finally, check to ensure the car will only start in NEUTRAL or PARK.

    Q:
    How to remove and install the Neutral Safety Switch on Buick Century? Posted by Customer
    A:
    To remove and install the switch, first apply the parking brake securely, block the wheels, and place the transmission selector in NEUTRAL before disconnecting the shift linkage at the transmission. Next, unplug the electrical harness at the switch, remove the switch mounting bolts, and take out the switch. For installation, align the flats of the new switch with those on the shift shaft, fitting it over the shaft and onto the transmission. If the bolt holes do not align, avoid turning the switch to prevent breaking an internal pin; instead, turn the shift shaft until they do. Install the mounting bolts for the switch, tightening them to 22 ft. lbs. (29 Nm), and reconnect the electrical harness. If the pin is broken, turn the shift shaft two positions from PARK to NEUTRAL, insert a 3/32 in. (2mm) drill bit into the service adjustment hole in the switch, and slowly turn the switch until the drill drops into the switch to a depth of 9/64 in. (3mm). Finally, install the switch mounting bolts, tighten them, and remove the drill bit.
