The gear selector switch detects the driver’s selected gear position (Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive) and sends this information to the vehicle’s electronics.
If you notice any of the following, the part likely needs replacement:
Reversing lights not working correctly
Vehicle won’t start unless the lever is jiggled into a specific position
Gear indicator on the dashboard showing the wrong or no gear
Installation information
Mounted on the gearbox or gear lever assembly, connected to the vehicle wiring harness — check the switch is correctly aligned with the gear positions after installation.
Frequently asked questions
Many vehicles use this switch as a safety interlock, preventing starting unless Park or Neutral is correctly detected — a worn or misaligned switch can fail to register the correct position reliably.
Super good! They came through with the part I needed, quickly and at a fair price! Thanks, and I definitely recommend!

I ordered a Heater Blower Motor Resistor for a Toyota Avensis. Delivery took eight days from Latvia to Ireland. I installed it, and everything works perfectly. I wish this company success.

No complaints about Evro Trans itself, everything's fine. But the delivery..... It felt like the order was being carried by turtles. 4 days from Riga to Daugavpils. Judging by the tracking, the parcel just sat somewhere behind a shed for 3 days, then they found it and delivered it the next day. I think that's why I won't be ordering there again.

Bought a front fender for my car. I liked it! After payment they sent more than 20 photos of the problem areas, and it was packed very securely - took a while to unwrap.
