#211912 Every time i go to start the car i press in the clutch and turn the key but nothing happens. Ive got to stomp on the clutch and turn the key like 10 times before the car starts. Any ideas? Im clueless

#211920 sounds like the clutch safety switch may be going bad. Look for a switch with 2 wires on the top of your clutch pedal. Connect the 2 wires and see if the car starts. MAKE SURE IT IS NOT IN GEAR. If it works, then the switch is your problem, easy to replace :thumb:

#211922 you can short the clutch switch to isolate the switch itself... if that fixes the issue replace it
