Clutch switch is keeping car from starting.

(EDIT: Fixed - See Post Below Main)

switch seems shot.. I tried looking up underneath the dash, but it's really a pain to see or feel anything. The two wires that run from the switch, do they run to a simpler place to reach/see so that I can bypass for now?

Thanks..

Re: Clutch switch is keeping car from starting.

n/m, I managed to trace the wires to the main harness, but I wasn't about to cut them. In the dark with a mini mag-light in mouth, and 26 degrees out, I managed to pull the plug off the switch (one handed) and jump it with a paperclip...... Car starts.
