Neutral Safety Switch/Transmission Range Sensor Troubleshooting Test

That all being said I'm still betting on the shifter cable mainly because it's more a common failure than an electrical issue, the cable failure is usually the little retainer/ball/barrel on the shifter end of the cable becoming dislodged or more commonly breaks and needs to be replaced, which it can be replaced without replacing the entire cable.
I'm not taking that bet! ;)

The lack of warning lights on the dash (or a potential error code showing up on an OBDII code reader) would certainly lead to your diagnosis being more reasonable than a NSS failure.

And for the OP perhaps a little easier to diagnosis and less costly to repair.
