Hi,
There are two clutch switches.
The big white one which is engaged only when the pedal is fully depressed is a starter interlock.
Not sure if this is the same for your year model but hopefully it is of some help.

There's a smaller one, up under the dash, which disengages when the pedal is slightly depressed. This goes to the cruise control unit as well as to ECU pin 1V. In a M/T car it's a brown-white wire. This wire is also connected to the transmission neutral switch.

thank you...where is the white starter interlock located?
Hi @mikemiata ,
It might have changed colour. Is there not one where it is shown in the picture in the link that I posted?

is there a electrical relay on clutch pedal that controls the start function?
