What is this called?
Gentlemen,
1997 Discovery I, what is this called? It is mounted on the right side of the transfer case right in front of the Solenoid Cover. Where is best place/price for new one?
All help appreciated.

Not sure what the part name is but I believe that's the CDL positive engagement switch. OR it's the high/low positive engagement switch. The transfercase has two switches on it to let the computer know if the t-case is in high or low range and another switch to let itknow that the Center Differential Lock in engaged. That should clue you in enough to find what you need. Just find those two switches online and see which one looks like it.

It is not the solenoid, that is under the little cover with 4 screws.
This is my best guess....

Guys,
What is the function of the Neutral Switch?
What is the effect of running the vehicle with the switch screwed in but not connected (wires pulled out of old one)?
In other words, does it affect anything for it to be out of the circuit?
