neutral switch

[wayno]

think the neutral switch is knackered, checked the bulb and pulled the switch out to check. tried flicking the plunger bit but no light, is there a way to check the wiring back to the bulb before ordering a new one from zpower or is there anywhere else that stock them?

I think Cradley Heath are the biggest stock holders,U.K./might be wrong?

Wayno.
Simply disconnect the wire at the neutral switch and ground it on the engine casing.... the warning lamp should light up.
If it doesn't then remove the warning lamp cover, remove the neutral lamb bulb, switch on the ignition, and with a voltmeter, check for 12v on the centre contact in the bulb holder. If you don't get 12v then there's a problem with the brown supply wire (same circuit as brake light supply).
If you do get 12v, and the bulb is 100% good, then check the continuity of the return wire to the neutral switch.

The ones they sell at Z Power arn't the standard ones as they say they are NLA, having said that you can't see it when installed and the replacement is a more robust all metal item.
