WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 GMC Sierra and 2003 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Install the PNP switch to the transmission manual shaft by aligning the switch hub flats with the manual shaft flats.
  2. Slide the PNP switch onto the transmission manual shaft until the switch mounting bracket contacts the mounting bosses on the transmission.
    IMPORTANT: If a NEW PNP switch is being installed, the switch will come with a positive assurance bracket. The positive assurance bracket aligns the new switch in its proper position for installation and the use of the park neutral switch aligner will not be necessary.
