Advise to stay neutral after conflict (4)
I believe the answer is:
warn
'advise' is the definition.
(warning is a kind of advising)
'neutral after conflict' is the wordplay.
'neutral' becomes 'N' (abbreviation in electronics).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'conflict' becomes 'war' (war is a kind of conflict).
'n' put after 'war' is 'WARN'.
'to stay' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for warn that I've seen before include "Advise" , "Notify in advance of danger" , "Alert" , "Notify of potential risk" , "Give a caution to" .)
