Standard Motor Products NS-127T Neutral Safety Switch

Standard Motor Products (SMP) T-series NS127T switch/commutateur interruptor UPC 025623456232 made in Taiwan.Perfect replacement for my clutch interlock switch on my Ford. Props to a previous reviewer for his advice on installation (you simply disconnect the wiring harness and separate the switch body to remove, no need to remove the clutch rod). This is a very simple switch which can get dirty. Take your old one apart first and see if it just needs to be cleaned. If it's not broken, clean it up and buy some conductive grease like this: https://www.amazon.com/Permatex-85184-Bulb-Grease-Fluid_Ounces/dp/B01313JPVC/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=bulb+grease&qid=1597341219&sr=8-8, put it back together and it should work just fine.

Repaired a 1995 Ford Ranger 2.3L with this that was having an intermittent start issue.Prior to replacing, the customer had the battery checked/charged, a new starter installed, and new battery cables. The no-start problem lessened, but still occurred regularly. This repair fixed the issue 100%.BEFORE REPLACEMENT :- Pressed in clutch, turn key, no crank, turn key , no crank, turn key, no crank- Pumped clutch, pressed clutch hard into floor, turn key, engine cranks/runsAFTER REPLACEMENT :- Pressed in clutch, turn key, engines cranks/runs -- EVERY TIME!** HELPFUL TIPS!! **1. This part & OEM part do not have the same disassembly methods.2. This part has a retention cover that you must carefully pry/lift off of 4 locking barbs (covers entire back of unit).3. OEM part has a thin plastic insert that slides up & out of a keyway on the rear.4. Do NOT remove the clutch pedal or piston rod to replace this part.5. Only unplug the wiring from the OEM, slide the insert on the rear, remove OEM -- then slide the new part into position & lock in place, install retention cover, & plug in wiring harness.With a small flathead screwdriver + a LED light, this repair will take you 5-10 minutes the first time & less than 2 minutes if you ever have to do it again.Good luck!

I installed this in my 1997 Ford Ranger. The original switch had finally failed after 20 years. It's been in use now for three months and is working just fine. It was fairly easy to install. Even a person with limited mechanical experience should be able to put this in.

This part fits our 1997 Ford Ranger and is almost identical to original part. It is much cheaper than one from a parts store. It was easy to swap out under the dashboard.

Installed in my 97 ford ranger. Looks a bit different than the one that was previously installed but fits and functions as required.Price was almost half of the local parts stores. I'm happy to have it up and running again!

Does what it's supposed to do got a quick install fix the problem

This thing melted with 12.7 volts. Took it apart. Very thin internals. Didn't hold up

The switch lasted about 2 weeks. I ordered a Motorcraft one on Amazon to replace it.

good quality part
