Hi,

My Jeep sometimes does not start when the transs. lever is on "P", when I move it to "N" it starts ... The elect. said it's a "switch" in the gearbox. I am not sure about that part is it the GROMMET, Timing Probe or the SENSOR, Vehicle Speed?? pliz help and what must I do now?

 

Sounds like a starter...when they get old the gears wont spin in place properly...so when you put it in neutral and roll back or forward a slight bit it helps the gears get closer to locking before you spin the starter with the ignition.

 

It is more than likely the Nuetural Safety Switch

 

Do you mean this strter?:

 

+ 1 on the NSS. im sure there is a sticky on this site for finding it, removing it, and cleaning it. give it a search

 

NSS on the side of the trans. You can do 1 of 2 things.. take yours off and clean/lube it or get one from ebay. Ive been using mine for a bit now and its all good. Locally they will run you about 150-200. ebay has them for like 45 bucks

cant beat that shipped. Almost worth getting two and having one just in case.
