Man that is pricey. I got one for the BW35 in my Charger ages ago.

I got it from Hemi Performance down it Nelson. I don't know if the BW35 and BW45 use the same inhibitor switch but it could be worth checking.

Not sure how much Hemi Performance NZ chargers but in Aussie they are $77

Or $55

I just rang, it would be a specail order, poor Rhys nearly fell off his stool too when I mentioned Avenger

$197 would be starting cost + freight

rebuild time (of old one) or scrounge off a BW55 (as ross mentioned 35 different & I note from the catalog 55's are lumped together

hi jared out of interest what was the bw55 fitted to? and what was the difference? we have a 35 here taken out of a hunter if you need bits it may go to scrap.

Bumpo

Switch is being a Dick : was ok for a WOF but not ideal only starting in Neutral currently

Will try Graeme too

sadly none in the Pasts I got from AZZA

internet link http://go4trans.com/transmission/bw45/bw45-electrical-parts-inhibitor-switch/ (http://go4trans.com/transmission/bw45/bw45-electrical-parts-inhibitor-switch/)

and another link

https://www.autozone.com/electrical-and-lighting/neutral-safety-switch (https://www.autozone.com/electrical-and-lighting/neutral-safety-switch)

wonder if any of them could be made to work safely

Could always bypass the switch or fit an external one. Not ideal, but would work. Have you tried giving the switch a good clean?
Title: Re: WTB : BW45 Inhibitor switch NZ ono
Post by: JoKer on August 02, 2018, 09:44:46 PM
yeah had the guts out at least once, & yeah external was next step, micro switch on the gear lever etc

Sorted! got a new one from Graeme

Post by: kierbear on April 24, 2022, 03:53:58 PM
any solution to this now-days? i have decided to rescind my last comment about not needing one for a WOF (not being checkd) but now i just want one for safety reasons. i recall asking on the Mopar site and apparently being able to use one that is otherwise for ...something else but a Hemi part

updates?

All the Mopar's use BW35 gearboxes on the Hemi motors so they won't fit.

I'd give Graeme a call, see if he has any, do you have his number?

Post by: JoKer on April 26, 2022, 02:19:13 PM
35 differ from 45?

ok today is a school day for me :P

Kiera has a 35 BTW

Post by: avenga on April 26, 2022, 04:36:05 PM
Oh sweet. If she has a BW35 then you should be able to use a Valiant/Mopar one.

This is what the one from my BW35 in my Chrysler Valiant Charger looks like
