On a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, the neutral safety switch is typically located on the transmission, near the transmission linkage. It is mounted on the side of the transmission case and is connected to the gear shifter. This switch prevents the engine from starting unless the transmission is in the "Park" or "Neutral" positions.
It only allows starting in park and neutral and it turns on the reverse lights.
It is on the valve body inside the transmission.
find the conector(s) and jump it. also try starting your vehicle in neutral.
It is inside the transmission, on the valve body. It is called a range sensor.
You might want to check your park-neutral safety switch, if it is not engaged the starter will not run.
Trouble code P1899 means: Park/ Neutral switch stuck in park or gear
Usually it is located on the shifter inside the console. You have to disassemle the console around the shifter to get to it.
Problem solved...the culprit was bare neutral switch wires shorting out and blowing the fuse!!!!!
How do I replace water pump on 2004 jeep grand Cherokee
either behind or in front of the arm of your brake pedal. Follow the brake pedal up until you find a box, either in front of or behind the brake pedal. You will find that the box has a button on it that is activated by your brake pedal, that is the neutral safety switch.
