i can't even jam my head in there to see it.
Do I have to pull the seat and go for a backflop till my head is on the floor mats and my feet are on the roll hoops and have my arms thalitomized ?

Did it for the Civic once to adjust the clutch pedal. Moved the seat all the way back and crawled in sideways. My head rested on the floormat. After I was done I was sore for a couple of days. Never tried that in the S2000. Not sure it has enough room for me to do work.

Upside down and backwards.

It's also the same technique for cutting crown molding.

Before I just pull the seat, I just wanted to see if that'll get me to where I need to be, or if I have to pull the pedal assembly too

Thanks Jeff, I did read that, but they make it sound s simple as to just lie on your back and look up.
Granted, not everyone in the world wears 2XLT, but it's ridiculous to do for me without pulling the seat and even then I might need a ASE certified helper monkey to relay to me what's going on under there.

You just need to lay on your back to get in there, find a skinny friend and you shouldn't need to pull the seat. If you need to replace the sensor, I have spares.

Did the switch go bad? Have you considered the bypass?

Switch is fine.
I just want to feed a scotchlock between the wires to bypass the switch.


Id do it right now if I could get to it.
I'm thinking of grounding the light blue interlock relay wire, but didn't want to pull that fuse block.
