Neutral safety switch?
Today just out of the blue my car wouldn't start after driving it and making about four stops. Turned the key and absolutely nothing- no sounds, nothing. Luckily I was just a mile from home so I walked home and got my truck, got back to the car and it started right up as if nothing was wrong. Battery is only 7 months old, can't find any info on neutral safety switch in the service manual.

Now I need to walk back and get my truck...

After searching through older posts here I came to the conclusion that it was probably just my key and/or key hole in the dash needed cleaning. The "security" warning light was flashing and it apparently disables starting for 5 minutes- that explains why it started right up 20 minutes later. Still curious about the neutral safety switch location though in case that problem ever arises.
