I thought to myself, "manual gear boxes don't have a neutral safety switch". The safety is that you have to use the clutch and the gear lever, whereas with an automatic, Park is your brake, if you are in Drive and the engine starts, the car will move forward due to the increased revs on start up. I have searched for 10 minutes using a few search queries and it bears out that one doesn't exist. No parts sold under 'proton savvy neutral safety solenoid' either.
You need to have the diagnostic codes read. Anything else is pure guessing. Those codes can point you in the right direction and often will tell you exactly what is wrong.
hi,
savvy engine is same with renault engine. there's a flywheel sensor/engine speed sensor between engine and gearbox. change the engine speed sensor.
The engine speed sensor is control the ignition timing, if the sensor can't read the 0' angle the engine won't fire up.
proton savvy ...good little car but often wont start ...turns over , no start ...llock it ,eave it , come back will start . when doesnt , kick the clutch pedal in hard 2-3 times ...neutral start switch may be sticky .. put into neutral , depress clutch & brake ...then started !
If you feel it starting to die - toss it into neutral before coming to a full stop.
If it then keeps running, your TCC solenoid is locking up (common problem on all TH125C trannies). As a quick fix, pop the hood and disconnect the square green 4 pin connector going into the tranny. No more lockup over 50km/h, but no more stalling.
