How does a double pole switch work?

A switch is inserted in series with a single wire. When the switch is on, it is as if the wire had not been opened to insert the switch. When the switch is off the wire is open and no current can flow. All a double pole switch does is allows you to switch two separate wires at the same time with the same switch action. A single pole switch just switches one wire.

Where is the neutral switch located at on a 2000 Honda rancher 350 ATV?

the switch is inside the back cover, but you should check the shift drum. the end of the shift drum has a slot in which the neutral switch sets in, and on my rancher the end of the shift drum was broke so when the quad is in neutral the switch said it was in gear you pretty much have to completely disassemble the whole engine and tranny to change the shift drum. good luck
