Clutch sensor issues

Hey Z fam need some assistance on this issue..I went to start the car it didn't tart lucky i was at advance auto..lol but i we tested the battery (which was new) and the alternator ( new as well) everything seem fine. but when press on the clutch to start it doesn't turn over at all, even tried to push start nothing happen. So im thinking its the clutch sensor by the clutch petal.. or the inhibitor fuse..any suggestion what the problem thank guys...

the plastic buttons that hit the switch fall out and then the switch doesn't activate. stand on your head look up under dash and see if the switch is being activated by depressing the clutch. Or just disconnect. I forget whether the switch opens to start or closes to start. I'm guessing close so jump the two wires together and see what happens or leave them off and see what happens.

That switch wouldn't cause someone not to be able to push start the car though.

Grammar and punctuation go a long way in forums. Typing like a grade school dropout makes your posts difficult to understand.

Did you have the key in the "ON" position when you tried to push start it?
