The switch is operated by a slotted extension of the shift drum (cam).

As the drum rotates it turns a brass contact inside the neutral switch.

Once you have released the two screws, you can pull the switch apart to check / clean it.

Okay, checked out my transmission and it is shifting properly but, since I split the case last week, I have lost my neutral switch. Everything is working down to the connector on the neutral switch wire but the switch isn't closing.

I can't find anything in the manuals about how the neutral switch is activated and the screws holding the neutral switch in place are VERY tight and will have to be broken free with a punch.

WHAT activates the neutral switch? What could cause it to stop working? (I really don't want to open the bottom end again!)
