You didn't describe your symptoms, how do you know your NSS is the problem?

Here's a good link on how to clean it, if you need to:

Great article! After seeing this I don't think I'll have too much trouble cleaning mine on my 97 Cherokee. My reverse lights would work intermittently for a while, now they just don't. Can still start in P and N though. When I talked to a local mechanic they pretty much said these parts are too hard to clean and recommended a new one at over $400! Clearly they haven't seen this write up!

Regards,
Pete
