Relocating of the Neutral Safety Switch
I am in the process of eliminating the NSS on my Duster. After all I have been thru with it, it still leaks and the reverse lights do not always turn on.
Before I start, the picture of the switches are just under the ignition key on the steering column. I just finished setting them up and used hot glue so I have not yet put them in permanently. I will pretty it up before I am finally finished.
This is an extremely simple circuit. I am using 3 Magnetic Cylindrical Plastic Sealed Reed Proximity Switches with a small rare earth magnet and some hot glue. I drew out the wiring diagram for you.
It really could not be any simpler. I ordered a Neutral Switch Eliminator Plug as Kenflo mention in a post above. I do not want to fight with the switch anymore so I will replace it rather that blocking the switch in the tranny with epoxy as some described.
Works beautifully and if it needs adjusting, it can not be more accessible. I mounted mine on the external steering column, I could have hidden it inside the column but if it needs adjusting I do not want to have to pull the column apart to service it.
