Auto shift lock/starter safety switch is a device that is installed in the shifter assembly of a vehicle. It is designed to prevent the engine from starting unless the shifter is in the proper position. This safety feature is important because it can help to prevent accidental or unauthorized starting of the vehicle. The switch also helps to ensure that the engine is not started while the vehicle is in gear, which could cause damage to the transmission.
