Default Neutral Safety Switch on '92 Cherokee Laredo

This finally got diagnosed (NSS)...intermittent back-up lights...they would come on when I wiggled the shift lever; so far it starts fine in P or N.

Can the NSS be taken apart, cleaned, then reused?

Would/does an after-market part fit? (sometimes the wiring harness's are not as long as the OEM part). Prices for an after-market are approximately $300; the dealer price is $414 ( I was quoted a price from my mechanic for an OEM part at $498 - they are making some monies off of parts!).

Thanks for your input!

Judy

You can fix it yourself provided it's not worn to bad. This young lady did hers along with a heck of a write up. I did mine about 6 months ago with no problems.
