Neutral Safety Switch
Anyone know if there is a rebuild kit for the NSS wiring (the wires and 3 connectors that are attached to the switch)?
If you've tried this, how fragile are the metal blades that come up through the wire connectors (they go through a slot on the connector and twisted in place)? No point in doing this if those tabs are likely to break.
I looked around on vendor sites and searches but couldn't find any made up wiring kits. I've replaced the dash harness in the '72 and somewhere back in time (of course) things were changed and the NSS has been spliced directly to the old harness.
Replacements are about $50. Might be worth replacing if wiring is not available! Tnx!

After 35 years mine gave out and thought i could repair it, after 3 failed attempts Willcox sent me a new one.
My problem was self created since i used the nss purple/white wires for a cutout switch and i damaged the switches internal workings and they are fragile once you open up the switch. I never got it back together where it would work.
