The shop manual for my 60 doesn't say where if any, to connect a wire to the terminal of the switch. If there is supposed to be a wire connected, where does it come from? Also how about a source for a brake light switch?
Thanks, After three years It's finally ready the road, except for odds & ends.

On the '56, the neutral safety switch is wired to the starter relay.
Try NAPA for a brake switch.

That was my guess also. I've got a 56 Windsor so I'll use that to determine which terminal on the relay to use. Do you think the fact that the 56 is a two speed & the Desoto is the torqueflight would make a difference?
Thanks for the help

I suppose different years could have changed the way the neutral switch works or how it was wired. It's difficult to say. I'll look for a wiring diagram for your car. The switch itself is probably the same or similar in look and function.
edit: found the wiring diagram for the '60 and the NSS is wired identically to the '56.
