Hi anyone got a picture of the clutch safety switch? Mine shot craps today found a little brown plastic bulb thingie on floor

First thing which one IS it? The spring loaded one that comes out when clutch is pushed in on interior side? Or the coin lookin one on the firewall side...which side is it on?

Any pics would sure help...it's frickin HOT under crawlin under that damned dash today!!! Thanks

switch on left is the clutch safety switch, the right is the ascd cancel switch

[tbird71]

The one on left...that's on the interior side? The ascd one is on the firewall? What do I do, adjust the switch in or out with the locknut? Appreciate it evild

[evildky]

that is a side view, the one on the left would be the one nearest the firewall. You loosen the jamb nut then adjust the switch then tighten the jamb nut to keep it form moving.

Evil; It's actually NOT the switch but the ACTUATOR on the lever itself...the plastic actuator has broke off so no way to push the switch in...now what? Maybe a bolt and nut in the hole where the actuator was? Any way to bypass that switch? Any help appreciated...

Oh, well you can buy the stopper, I think they are under $10 form the dealer. or nut/bolt, or stuck a rubber adhesive bumper on it which is what I did, used what was handy.
