Neutral saftey switch issue? 2000 Ws6 A4
Anyone else have this issue? Sometimes when I go to start the car it wont crank, and the check gauges light pops on the cluster. I have to move the shifter back and fourth through the gears (sometimes roughly) before the car will start. It'll go through stretch's where it wont do it, but then sometimes its every time I shut the car off. I can be at a gas station when it decides to not start and I end up looking like a madman assaulting my shifter while people are waiting to pull in
Does this sound like a NSS issue or something else? Is there a way to bypass the NSS?

I believe the wires for the nss are the green and orange. To by pass them, simply cut and tie the wires back together coming from the vcm. I believe that's the colors though, next time I pull my console I'll look to see if that's right or not

Lol, I feel your pain. When I spliced mine for my shifter it acted up on me at a gas station and I looked the same.
