The clutch interlock switch is located under the dashboard and is similar if not identical to the brake light switch. you will find it where the clutch pedal extends to the furthest down position under the dash. It prevents you from starting the vehicle without depressing the clutch thus preventing starting up in gear, its a safety issue if someone is standing in front of you when you do it you will run them over, but if you need to just cross the wires.
It doesn't have one, it has a switch on the clutch pedal. It also has an interlock switch on the dash, turn the ignition switch on and press the interlock switch and it will bypass the clutch switch.
on your clutch pedal
Nope, i can start my 720 without clutch engaged. Its a 1984 720 with the z24 motor if you were wondering
This is usually known as a neutral safety switch or shift interlock switch.
It is on the clutch pedal. Meaning the clutch must be depressed in order to start the vehicle, since this effectively ensures the vehicle is in neutral.
I went to Autozone and bought a small pair of vice grips. I was able to get behind the clutch and remove the switch. Disconnecting the plugin I used a small screwdriver. I screwed the old switch out! Put new one in and my 95 Nissan XE is back and starting fine. Contact me at (fasttony46@yahoo.com). For questions about the 95 Nissan XE. I have had mine for 10 yrs. I know every nut and bolt on it.
Attached to body behing brake pedal (if automatic) clutch pedal (if standard)
Clutch safety switches are usually mounted under the dashboard above the clutch pedal, so that they are activated when the clutch is depressed.
The 2010 Nissan Titan, Armada, Altima, Maxima and Sentra all received a 5 star rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, which is the highest rating available. The Versa, Pathfinder, Murano, Rogue, XTerra, Cube and the Frontier received 4 star ratings.
I have a 2006 Nissan frontier and on mine the clutch safety switch is located at the very bottom of the clutch pedal travel. That is to make sure you push the clutch all the way in when you start so you can't accidentally crank it over in gear and drive into a wall (Seen it done twice by two different coworkers in an older dodge w/o the clutch switch!!)
the clutch safety switch is located under the dashboard, on most cars, it is connected directly to the clutch pedel.
If it is an automatic it will not have a clutch safety switch it will have a neutral safety switch
