Truck wont start. When you try to start it it is acting like its still in gear. Call the towing when they load the truck then it starts. Dealer is not showing any codes. So I guess when I push it then it starts. Could it be neutral safety switch, or is it something else

I'm not quite sure what your core problem is.
Is it a problem with the engine not starting? Or, does it start ok, but when it does, it's in gear? Please advise.

I an assuming the engine won't crank. If this be the case, it's one of the following;
Start relay. (Under the hood in relay block)
Neutral safety switch (on the transmission)
The starter solenoid. (On the inner fender well)
If it cranks, but won't fire? It's another story. Please advise.
