Ok. thanks for the info. using a test light, check and monitor the power at the fuel shut off solenoid. It should open up with power with the ignition switch on and then off with the switch off. Also check the connections coming from the accessory post of your ignition switch. If you are loosing power at your fuel shut off then thoroughly inspect your harness and connections for any loose, corroded, or broken connections. Since this is a power reverser is probably why there is not brake/clutch switch. It is common for the neutral safety to act up but since that is new, it is possibly a wiring issue. Inspect your harness for bare wiring or loose and corroded connections... Let me know thanks

If it runs/starts with the neutral safety switch bypassed then your neatral safety switch is bad. Replace the switch and you should be all set. Let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks for using JA

Hi. I answer questions on here part time. I do not understand what you mean by a poor reply. I see your last post posted at 9:58PM when I was sleeping and I just checked in now before I left for a call. Usually if you by pass a switch and it works, that means the switch is bad or the switch is not engaged. I will be unavailable the rest for a while as I will be tied up on a call. Let me know what you find or if you need further assistance. Thanks fr using JA
