Man that is pricey. I got one for the BW35 in my Charger ages ago.

I got it from Hemi Performance down it Nelson. I don't know if the BW35 and BW45 use the same inhibitor switch but it could be worth checking.

Not sure how much Hemi Performance NZ chargers but in Aussie they are $77

Or $55

I just rang, it would be a specail order, poor Rhys nearly fell off his stool too when I mentioned Avenger

$197 would be starting cost + freight

rebuild time (of old one) or scrounge off a BW55 (as ross mentioned 35 different & I note from the catalog 55's are lumped together

Bumpo

Switch is being a Dick : was ok for a WOF but not ideal only starting in Neutral currently

Will try Graeme too

sadly none in the Pasts I got from AZZA

internet link http://go4trans.com/transmission/bw45/bw45-electrical-parts-inhibitor-switch/

and another link

https://www.autozone.com/electrical-and-lighting/neutral-safety-switch

wonder if any of them could be made to work safely

Could always bypass the switch or fit an external one. Not ideal, but would work. Have you tried giving the switch a good clean?
