Thanks M.B Doc,

Yes, I meant the "conductor plate". The car is still having intermittent starting issues - wont even crank. I have replace the ESM and the EIS to no avail. I can start the car every time though if I just clear the codes.

Dealer daignosed both the above - I replaced them. I am hoping it is the neutral safety switch on the conductor plate that is keeping the trans from reporting back to the DAS.

Have you ever heard of that?
