- Switching issues caused by worn internal contacts
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the transmission and shift configuration before installation, especially on 1969 Buick LeSabre, Riviera, and Skylark with console shift and 1969 Chevrolet Bel Air with column shift. Confirm connector style, terminal layout, and mounting location against the original part before replacement. The NS-7 uses a male connector and 4 blade terminals, so matching the vehicle harness is important for proper installation.
Quality Assurance
Standard Ignition tests each switch for mechanical and electrical operation before release. The design uses high-grade materials and copper alloy conductors to meet the demands of professional service work.
