So was it the clutch switch?

 

yea i believe it called the clutch interlock switch. i need to order one soon and because there two could some confirm the part number? 35710-SE3-A01?

 

Just keep the clutch switch bypassed, it's a stupid thing and it will cause unnecessary wear on your motor.

 

Just don't leave the car in gear :-)

 

Just a quick question, when you tested the actual clutch interlock switch connector, did you use the paper clip method and your car started up which is why you were convinced that was your issue? I'm having the exact same problem with my car which is why I'm asking and I've done all the things you have, even tested the wrong wire at first thinking it was the switch
