It is under the battery tray. Here is where it is and how to get to it.
Here is another procedural tutorial on how to remove and replace it.
Assuming that this is an automatic, the NSS is a common problem. A common, cheap and easy ten minute bypass method has been developed to get around the problem or at the least to use to confirm the diagnosis of a failed switch.

It is in side the trans on top of the valve body. Why do you think you need to replace it?

Under dash driver side look behind the upper arm of clutch pedal and you should see a green and black wire coming from the button (switch) assembly on the firewall. The wires go up above the clutch pedal. About in the middle of under dash on the left side you should see a white connector these wires run to. Disconnect. I just had the problem and not only starts now but not stalling like it was but it's only been one day but tested it pretty good.

Where is the turn signal flasher located Mitsubishi Galant 2002

The '02 Mitsubishi Galant does not have a serviceable turn signal flasher. The flashing operation is control by the Electronic Time Alarm Control System (ETACS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ETACS ECU is located behind the left side of the dashboard, attached to the fuse junction block. It receives power from Multi-Purpose Fuse 2 (7.5A) located in the same junction block as well as from Dedicated Fuse 8 (10A) in the engine compartment relay box. Abnormal turn signal operation could be caused by a faulty turn signal switch, wiring or the ETACS ECU. You can read more about symptoms of a failing turn signal switch here: https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/symptoms-of-a-bad-or-failing-turn-signal-switch

Where is the safety neutral switch on a 2009 mitsubishi galant located?

If the vehicle is a front wheel drive, the switch can be seen on top of the transmission, under the shift rod. It will have a multi electrical connector attached to it. If the vehicle is a rear wheel drive, the switch will be on the driver's side on the transmission under the shift lever. It is easy to see and quite obvious. Good-Day!

Mitsubishi galant 2001 car wont start unless i use copper wire from battery and touch solenoid from starter i checked voltage from the wiring already installed on the the car and it has 11.89 volts what...

Well it should be the same as battery voltage so 11.89 might be ok, but a little low.
If it is a manual trans, did you check the clutch safety switch, and if its an automatic, the neutral safety switch ?

I have a 2005 galant, when I try to put my car in drive it would stop at neutral. I turned the car off and turn it back on and then in went into drive. I need help!

Shift linkage attatches to trans on drivers side of trans make sure its connected with no obstructions. It could be related to your neutral safety switch which keeps the car from starting while it's in gear
