93 Grand Am Neutral Switch

We have a 1993 Pontiac Grand Am in which the neutral switch has apparently failed. For some time off and on the started motor would not crank over the engine in park and it would not crank over the engine at all in neutral. Wiggle the shift lever a few time and it would crank right over. Now the switch has apparently failed completely. What I want to know is the exact location of the neutral switch on this car. It’s a floor shift model and I assume it’s there. If the console and various trim pieces are removed from around the shifter can the neutral switch be accessed from inside the car or is it necessary for me to crawl under it? Can I just by pass the switch all together and wire it direct? I guess what I am looking for is the quickest cheapest easiest method to fix this. Thanks

buy a repair manual it is about $16 at auto zone but it sounds like some thing is lose that conects the shifter to the nutral safty switch sorry i couldn't help any more

I have tried by passing the switch, which as it turns out is located on the transmission. No luck and when I placed a volt meter across those two wires I got nothing. Because of my experience of having to wiggle the shifter I was convinced that this was the problem. I wonder if there is a second switch on the shifter?
