Default Replaced bad clutch master cylinder, car wont start!

So the other day, I went out to start my car up and go for a drive, and it wouldnt even attempt to turn over. The first thing I thought was ahh, battery died... well I realized the car had full power... HID's turn on, brake lights work, stereo works. I tried turning the key when pressing in the clutch, no go. After some inspection, I realized the clutch master cylinder was leaking. Well, I replaced that today with no snags. Along with a new slave cylinder. I bled the clutch, and tried to start her up, and it did the same thing. I've never had problems with the car starting except sometimes on a cold start, I have to blip the gas a little to start her up because the car is cammed and high compression N/A. Any thoughts?

Maybe the rubber/plastic piece that goes with the clutch interlock...they wear out after awhile..you tryclutch kicking, and see if it starts up?

Doesn't turn over period, doesn't even click, no whirring, nothing. I'll check the clutch interlock switch in the morning.

I will. I want to go out there now and check since it will only take about 60 seconds, but should probably wait since it's 4:45am and I'd wake up all my neighbors. Lol

My Integra did the same thing awhile back. Always seemed like it did not get enough power to start it even though there was enough power to run the radio and everything else. Everytime I jump started the ****** it would start.

The plastic piece at the top of your clutch fell out. It pushes in the clutch safety switch telling the car the clutch is down and to start the car, without it tell the car that it's not ok but really it is so put your finger up there and push in the clutch safety switch button, trust me you'll see it, and try and start the car, if it starts u know to go to honda and get a new little plastic piece (i don't know the name for it) it's less than $6

just an update. Car sorted it was none of what was suggested.
at the end it was a simple fix. Just needed a reset. Mechanic disconected the battery and connected the nuteral an live together for a very short while and car resetted. He then locked the doors with key and opened it and started engine and wala all done.

Re put codes in sat nav display and now up and running
