I dropped my car off at Pep Boys for an alignment and inspection. Anyway, it failed for some burned out bulbs and a "transmission issue" that they can't fix. When I asked what it was, he said "the car starts without the clutch being pressed" and I would need to take it to a transmission shop
I disconnected the clutch start switch, but forgot to plug it back in. Anyway, now that the car is back on the road and I'm back in VA where we have annual safety inspections, it's a pain to plug/unplug the switch every time I take it somewhere (every time meaning once a year for inspection, and for alignments). I want to hook up a switch instead of having to reach up and under the dash every time. The thing is, there's not much room and the wires are so short I'm not sure how I would even cut/strip the wires so that I can add wire to a flip switch. Anybody know if there's somewhere else to do this that's more easily accessible?
