An automatic transfer switch would be used when one needs to switch energy from one source to another and cannot do it manually. It can be used to switch from electric to a generator when needed.

Several reasons. 1- bad neutral safefty switch. both automatic and manual transmission cars have one if it is automatic then the switch is on the brake pedal. If it is a manual, it is on the clutch.

If not, the price of the fixing just got lower! (yay) If It's not the switch, you need a shop to fix it.
