So,
yesterday i went to leave 7-11 and when i pushed the clutch in to start it nothing happened:mad:, so i reached my hand down and pushed the NS switch in with my finger and it just clicked, so i pushed it a couple times really quick while cranking on the motor and it finally started. so now i have to push it with my finger every time i start the car.

im confused, so any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Theres two wires running to that switch. Cut them and splice them together. Problem solved.

One better, bypass the starter relay under the hood and eliminate another potential problem later.

Bingo. The S13 starter relay is a known problem area, the Z32, D21 pickups and Pathfinders uses the same one and they constantly go out. Bypassing it eliminates the potential for replacing it yearly.
