Why does my truck only start on neutral?
The common reason your car will start in neutral but not in park is due to a faulty neutral safety switch. This switch is what makes your car be able to start in either gear. If the neutral safety switch goes bad, it will only allow the car to start in neutral.
What causes a Ford Expedition not to start?
The most common reasons a Ford Expedition won't start are a dead battery, an alternator problem, or failed starter.
