2002 s2. every other time i would try to start my car i would get nothing, no click, no hummm, no lights dimming. it was like i wasnt trying to start it. so before i went and bought a starter this is what i did...
i got one of theses guys
took a needle nose and made it the right width to fit in the clutch interlock switch connector like so
theres two switches on the clutch pedal. couldnt get a pic of the clutch interlock switch so took a pic of the clutch position switch, the one that i did NOT bypass.
the interlock switch is right above this one
now its starting every time so far, just a little trick that might keep someone from buying the wrong part. a clutch interlock switch ($22.00) on majestic.
this is a common mod for stronger pressure plate/clutches to eliminate dry start on the crank thrust washers. even stock clutch, this saves the washers
You looking for a part number on the little plastic part? Don't know it but these parts are on several (maybe all) manual gearbox Hondas and the guy at the parts counter will have them in stock.
is that’s all that is needed I was going to replace the entire switch lol

The white pointy one although the point may only be there for ease of assembly. There are three (3) in there. I had all three replaced last Summer as preventive maintenance. My only Honda dealer service visit other than the annual Virginia inspection in the past 10 years. With apologies to the Coast Guard "You have to crawl under the dash but you don't have to get out."
Someone about this time posts the drawing from the Service Manual showing where they are.
