Default Shift indicator doesn't tell what gear it's in

I can switch to drive and all fine but the orange indicator doesn't move is there somewhere I can buy a new one or how to fix it

Neutral safety switch its the black box on the driver side of the tranny fairly easy to replace part costs around $40 here is a link to orielly's http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/se...zer&vi=1361461

I'm gonna take a guess and say u have a center console in yours!??? For that I am not sure, however a neutral safety switch isn't the answer to your problem either...... I say take it apart carefully and take a look......

I'm interested to see how this turns out. My wife's s10 had the same issue. Column shift and intermittent gear indicator outage. I could be mistaken in this case but in mine it was neutral safety switch

My 2005 Trailblazer all of a sudden won't go into gear. The shifter lever works fine, the indicator doesn't show any change in gears. Took center console out (and threw it away) everything seems to be working fine. Next stop?
