clutch pedal switch to start manual car...explain please

[2fast4y0u]

so my kouki was an auto when i got it. like many others i have converted it to manual. i have no clutch override switch so i turn the key and its in gear i start moving.
well, now that my car has finally been put back together(2 years in the making) i would like to have a 2 step launch controller. i cant do that unless i have a clutch pedal switch. i recently purchased one from another Zilvia member and now i need to install it into my once auto car.

can anyone help me out with this so i can get it working properly?

i searched the FSM for some info, but there isnt really anything that explains it.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just wire the switch directly to the 2-step.

sweet deal.
where is it hooked to a manual car new? is it to the ecu?

No. From the factory, the clutch switch operates the clutch interlock solenoid circuit, and that solenoid closes the starter circuit. The clutch interlock solenoid circuit is also tied into the factory alarm system.

i see, so i dont have to worry about that part because my ignition is from an auto as well
