My car is in park and drive at the same time, so it will not start, what needs repaired?

When I go to start my car it has a solid red light around park, as it should, but it has a flashing green light around drive also. When this happens my car will not start. I usually try it a few times, wait and try and try again until it finally starts up. Once it starts the drives light is still blinking so I turn the car off and back on, then it is good to go. This does not happen every time, it seem sporadic. The engine, battery and oil light stay on, but I think it may only be because the car is starting up, usually the lights come on when starting then go off once the car is ready. Btw it is a 1993 Honda Accord.

The flashing drive light is the TCU signalling a fault. If it fails to start, I'm guessing maybe neutral safety switch is bad or misadjusted.

Next time it fails to start, hold the key all the way to the start position and try moving the shifter around a bit. If moving the shifter gets the starter to crank, then the NSS is definitely the problem.
