Locate the switch, typically found on the transmission, and inspect the wiring for any damage or corrosion.

If there's no continuity, the switch may need to be replaced.

The Neutral Safety Switch is located on the top of the transmission under the brake booster. It is clearly visible (from the correct angle).
