Starting probelms - Neutural safety switch?
71 Cutlass - floor shifter- 455 w/ Turbo 400...
Car will not start - battery good, dropped starter and testing fine / replaced relay on driver fender, no change.
Turn key - everything powers fine, Gen light glows
dropped steering column - not sure how to bypass or test ignition switch or N safety switch. I shifted the car to see but do not see anything mechanical moving on the column?
Any ideas?
Thanks....TP

Anything 69 and up with a steering column lock has linkage from the floor shifter up to the column to turn the column to the lock position. Generally the NSS is on the column and the linkage needs to be adjusted correctly for the NSS to work right.
4 speed cars had it too and worked off the reverse arm.

...Manual trans cars used a CLUTCH safety switch, mounted on the clutch pedal. The same connector with the two purple wires is plugged into the clutch safety switch instead of the NSS.
Here's why I brought up the backdrive linkage;
