Re: [Amc-list] Neutral safety switch

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Park switches are greased internally. They get gunked and since they spend a lot of time in park the contact gets cruddy and poor contact results. Others have reported they are easy to take apart and clean, then regrease with dieelectric grease.
  I can't help on the tach.
