Disabling clutch/start switch

[JohnT24]

Does anyone have instructions on how to bypass the clutch switch?

I would like the truck to start without pushing in the clutch every time.

Figure out what wires are shorted when the clutch is depressed and jumper across them.

I went with trial and error... LoL

The 2 blue/red wires are start.

I assume the other two wires are for cruise control shutoff maybe?

BTW,

I also noticed a slight amount of play in the plastic bushing on the end of the clutch rod. I may put a new plastic bushing in there....
I know they sell an improved hyme joint fix, but this one lasted 20 years... and I only use the truck part time.

something to check if you have any problems starting the truck without stomping the clutch all the way to the boards.


drove me nuts till I figured it out.

I almost yanked the starter... :doh:

So you just snip those wires and cross them?

Yes.

I soldered them together then used shrink tube.
then plugged the switch back in. Hopefully the cruise will still work, if not I will do the same for the other 2 wires.
