Chevrolet Repair: neutral safety switch

Question
I change transmissions in my 98z71 and it will not start. is there a certain UN in
position it need to be in

Answer
HI JOHN, YES IF THIS SWITCH IS NOT IN THE PARK OR NEUTRAL SIDE OF THE SWITCH IT WILL NOT CRANK.
I ASSUME YOU MEAN IT WILL NOT START AS IN NO CRANK....REMOVE THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER FROM THE SIDE OF TRANSMISSION AND CK TO MAKE SURE YOU DID NOT JAM THE LEVER INTO THE COLLAR OF THE TRANS. ALSO TRY TO MANUALLY MOVE THE SWITCH AND SEE IF YOU CAN GET IT TO CRANK LIKE THIS WITHOUT PUTTING THE SHIFT LEVER BACK TO IT..THIS WAY YOU CAN SEE IF THIS IS THE PROBLEM OR NOT AND ALSO HOW TO ADJSUT THIS IF NEED BE...THERE SHOULD NOT BE ALOT OF ADJ ON THIS...LET ME KNOW HOW THIS GOES.GOOD LUCK TOM...
