just got my pedals installed for my t5 conversion.......i "unjumpered" the neutral safety switch and plugged it into the pedals....the car will not start

if i re-jumper the plug, it starts


my question is, i still i have automatic in the car, so do I need to keep it jumpered until the t5 goes in? or can I have the neutral safety plugged in and start the car pressing the "dummy clutch"


thanks

Keep it jumpered.

How well do you understand this swap? You will need to correct the NSS wiring at the O2 harness to run a T5 trans in a car that was originally setup for an AOD.

I left mine jumpered at the pedal and connected the nss wires in the trans tunnel and it works fine. I still need to figure out the back-up lights, but just need some time to mess with it really. The only thing you have to worry about with this setup is the car will start without pressing the clutch.
