An inhibitor switch is joined to a manual shaft inside a mission case which can be readily positioned. The inhibitor switch in which a movable base is interlocked and linked to a manual shaft of an automatic transmission inside a mission case of the automatic transmission detects the rotation position of the manual shaft by the rotational movement of movable contacts with respect to fixed contacts. A pole base side is positioned by mating with the mission case in the rotational direction of the manual shaft. An insertion portion having a spacing in the axial direction of the manual shaft is provided in the pole base side, and one end of a positioning bracket is secured to the mission case side and the other end thereof is provided with an insert portion for insertion into insertion portion. The pole base side is positioned in the axial direction of the manual shaft by inserting the insert portion into insertion portion.
