Default No start condition

I have a no start condition on my car, trying to narrow it down, battery is good, I push the start button and nothing, it just went from one day to the next. Is it the starter, or can a faulty interlock switch cause this? Fuses look good, I'm at a loss here.

Are you pushing the clutch in? Do you have a clutch bypass installed? Did the bypass come loose?

Yes, no, no.

I did find this on my floor mat, it's not the brake light stopper or the clutch position sensor stopper, those were long gone, I have a penny glued to my brake pedal.

Does this mean I've somewhat dodged a bullet and can just bypass my interlock switch to fix it?

Thought I saw a similar post here recently with exact symptoms and finding piece of plastic on the floor.

Did the trick, so if anyone else encounters a no start check the floor mat first if you see a broken stopper you know what to do.
