Detailed Description

The NS-262 is a neutral safety switch for vehicles that require a reliable park/neutral start interlock signal. It is a direct-fit style component for select Nissan Frontier models from 1999 and 2010-2018, Nissan Pickup models from 1995 and 1997, Nissan 300ZX models from 1995-1996, Nissan Pathfinder models from 1987-1995, Nissan D21 models from 1986-1994 with neutral position notes, and Suzuki Samurai and Sidekick models from 1986-1990 and 1989-1990. This Standard Ignition NS-262 uses a screw-in attachment and a simple 2-wire, 1-connector layout for service on the transmission range circuit.

This part cross-references 3200623U00 and JA4341 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• No-crank condition when the transmission is in park or neutral
• Starter engagement only in the correct shift position
• Intermittent starting caused by worn internal switch contacts
• Transmission range signal faults related to the neutral start circuit
• Replacement of a damaged or corroded switch on Nissan and Suzuki vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the transmission application and connector style before installation. The NS-262 does not include mounting hardware or gaskets, so reuse or source any required related components separately. Confirm proper adjustment after installation so the starter circuit only closes in park or neutral, and inspect the harness connector for corrosion or terminal wear before reconnecting.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies this neutral safety switch as an electrical replacement part for service use. Confirm fitment by year, make, model, and transmission application before ordering.
