Step 10: Unplug Clutch Switch
Under the dash on the clutch pedal assembly, there is a switch that will only allow the car to be turned on if the clutch is pushed in. Just unplug this so that you can start the car without touching the clutch, it's better for the thrust bearing. The plug is on the front side of the clutch pedal assembly, so that it is only pressed when the clutch is all the way in.
I did this and my car still didn't start unless the clutch was pushed in all the way. I also noticed theres a button that is released when the clutched is pushed in, I pushed the clutch in just enough so the button was released and still didn't crank so that tells me that button is useless also the Plug/Switch unless I did something wrong or the wrong one
Help please? Thanks - Ryann
