My check engine light on my 1995 Maxima SE 5-speed is on. I check the code with the help of Maxima.org (Thank you very much!)and it said is the Knock Sensor and the Park/Neutral switch. I cally local Nissan Dealer and they give me a price of $180.50 for the Knock Sensor but could not find the Park/Neutral Switch part for a 1995 SE Manual trans. I do not know much about cars, Does any body know what it is and where it goes? How much apprx. does it cost? Maybe a good mechanic in the area other than Nissan dealer?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The park/neutral switch is on the side of the transmission case. If you get under your car, on the driver's side of the transmission, there is a wire coming out the side of the transmission case. That is the park/neutral switch inside your transmission. I replaced mine a while back but cannot remember the price. Sorry. Anyone here remember the price for that?

 

As far as the knock sensore price, check certain online parts dealears, as that price of $180 is way too high

 

Park/neutral is terminology associated with an automatic transmission. The manual transmission has an analogous sensor called the neutral/reverse position indicator switch. I bought one not too long ago but I can't remember the exact price, I think it was around $15-20.

 

Maybe he couldn't find the "park/neutral" switch for the manual transmission because it is a MANUAL transmission. These people work on cars?!?
