Okay, I haven't done this, but here's what you can do. Simply remove the neutral start switch and recondition it.

The switch is on the transmission, if you have a manual it will show you how to remove it. Once you have it off, take it apart and clean the hell out of hte inside. You might lightly sand the contacts with some fine sandpaper as well. Get everything in tip top shape then bench test it.

If all tests good (which it most likely will) put it back on and you're golden.

Do this soon, the back-up lights not coming on is just the beginning of the problems, later on it will make it impossible to start the vehicle. The NSS is what tells the car it's in Park or Neutral (or just Neutral for a stick) so it will allow the starter to go, it also handles the back up lamps.
