you wont get an answer to your problem because its so freaking hard to make sense of the description of what you are trying to do and whats going on when the person reading does not know where one sentence starts and another one ends in the future try to use punctuation and better explain the issue in clear concise statements so that we may make sense of the issue instead of getting a damn headache from what you posted on the inside of the fuse cover there should be a diagram of what relays are in the fuse panel and surrounding locations if the relay is clicking then its bad if the starter is clicking then you drained the battery down in the bottom of my sig is the factory service manual for your car i suggest you consult with that in the electrical section i can find no mention of a clutch relay just a clutch switch and the automatic speed control device switch which means the cruise control clutch switch the relays are for your ignition i hope you gave up reading this by now because your post gave me a headache and i think ive made my point

There is certainly a way to bypass the clutch interlock. I don't know how personally but I'm just trying to give you some hope... search as hard as you can and you'll find it. I don't have clutch interlock in my car, just don't forget to start in neutral lol

The relay i keep on blowing is the clutch ascd cut in the fuse box under the hood. I replaced it with the one next to it and it blew out that one too. When i turn the key the 4 relays in the car click also and it has power just doesn't crank. It started right up the first time, but then the relay went out. Does anyone know what could be causing this? I looked at the wires that go to the relay in the fsm and connected them but that didn't help. It did the same thing. If the key is on and i push the clutch in until the switch goes in and you can here the relay clicking on and off. I think it went out when the timing light was hooked up because it wouldn't start after it was hooked up. Can anyone help me? the car is a 1996 240sx. thanks alot
