beemrmem3 said:So its raining here. I go to start my car and i push the clutch in and my foot slips off and the clutch comes back up really hard and fast. So i push it back down and turn the key. It acts like it does when you try to start it when the clutch isnt in. I tried it both ways. Clutch in and not it. Its like the safety switch got fowled up or something. Is there anyway to disable it so i can see if that is it?
No, its like turning the key with the clutch up. Nothing happens.SeventyMach1 said:If the switch goes out .... wouldn't it "try" to start in gear?
depends if the switch goes out or breaks in the open or closed position in the closed position it will...but generally they will go out or break in the open position....SeventyMach1 said:If the switch goes out .... wouldn't it "try" to start in gear?
mo_dingo said:The switch is basically one wire going in (white/pink stripe), hot with key in start pos. (hot w/ 12V+), and the other is only hot when the pedal is depressed and key in start. So jumping the 2 wires would bypass the switch. To test it, see if you have 12v+ on the output wire w/ key in start and clutch depressed.
It looks like it's the White with pink stripe wire, which is 12V+. One of two things. Check for 12V+ at the white/pink wire at the starter relay (last item in the circuit, so if you don't have it with the clutch depressed and key in held start position, then you know it could be the clutch switch.)
If you have it at the starter relay, check for 12V+ at the yellow wire at the starter relay. From there the 12v+ goes on a white/pink wire out of the relay to the starter solenoid, which activates the solenoid and starts the car. If you have 12v+ at the solenoid, check for 12V+ at the big red cable at the starter (hot all the time), and ground at the big black wire (ground all the time).
Remember, yellow is hot at all times when the key is in the ignition. The white/pink is only hot when you have the clutch depressed, key in the start position and factory anti-theft disabled if you have it.

We have Tom Moss (diagram author for most of the schematics) and S&2B's (site host) to thank for providing such a wonderful reference.mo_dingo said:
Well I finally found This website and it is immensely useful. I am so glad to have it; before, my posts resort to "find a wiring and good frickin luck".
Having a good wiring diagram makes electrical problems very easy to solve. Without them, you are like the blind leading the blind.
