[QUOTE="rlshepard, post: 13780, member: 2346"] Howdy! So My daughter bought this Equinox for a song.... We've had a few issues. most of which were easy fixes... Recently the it wouldn't start tap tap on the starter and it fired right up.... so I replaced the starter and all was well... for a while then she went out and no start again. I put it neutral and it fired right up. back to park, fired right up... no she says it will only start in neutral? I'm guessing the neutral safety switch? pricey part... any other things I should look for? anybody have any experience replacing the neutral safety switch? Any adjustment to the linkage or anything on this vehicle? (Update) after looking at the neutral safety switch I notice two things: It looks like its been replaced before... Has marking on it like it came from a salvage yard... The linkage doesn't seem to be secure. Not real sure how it is supposed be secured? I haven't pullec the battery. Compartment yet. Looks like quite the operation? TIA Ralph [/QUOTE]
