Re: auto tranny comp finally replaced..

If you have in fact a bad switch it can be cut loose and another good 
switch spliced in. Connect color for color. If it is a new one you 
should be able to return it for another, of course it depends on where 
you got it. It is a very good idea to have a fully functional neutral 
start switch so don't jumper it out except for testing. Since you are 
having trouble with your shift computer make sure the kick-down switch 
is also functioning. The neutral start switch doesn't have any effect 
on the shifting. The switch cannot be serviced as once you open it up 
you will not be able to reassemble and crimp it back together.
As for cleaning the stainless try isopropal alcohol. Then Windex. I 
find for quick clean-ups Windex doesn't leave a residue or spots. The 
best thing is that expensive spray so I try to keep the use of that to 
a minimum.
