If you meant the neutral start switch, it is located on the upper part of the automatic transmission. Not sure if that's what you wanted though.
Look at your drivers manual.. where ever the park switch is, look for a "R".
A neutral safety switch makes sure that the gear select is either in neutral, or park, befor a car is allowed to start. No, it will not stop a trans for allowing you to put it in reverse.
It lets you only start the car in park or neutral.
Immediately passed the Park position. Neutral separates the Reverse gear and the Drive gears.
The parking pawl inside the tranny is messed up.
It only allows starting the engine in park or neutral. It also is the reverse light switch.

on the lower part of the steering column inside the car
It only allows starting when in Park and Nuetral. It also is the reverse light switch.
I am not sure but there should be a switch by the brake pad to release the safety neutral switch to allow you to shift. Try that.
neutral safety switch/ or reverse switch faulty thanks. how would i go about replacing the safety switch? is it difficult?
On a 1986 Camaro, the neutral safety switch is located on the transmission. Specifically, it can be found on the driver's side of the transmission, near the shift linkage. This switch prevents the engine from starting unless the transmission is in the neutral or park position. If you're troubleshooting or replacing it, ensure to disconnect the battery first for safety.
