So a friend installed an alarm in his RSX and wired the ignition up so that you wouldn't have to clutch in while turning the key.
Reason being garage = tight. Manual car + tight space = lame.
Well, now the cruise control does not work.

How exactly does one go about this problem?

 

why's a manual car in a tight space lame?...is it sloped or something?

 

Because you can open the door just enough to slide your body out of the car but getting in is even worse..

 

Please help me understand this - he wants to start his car without the clutch, because he parks in tight places, right? but he still has to use the clutch to move the car...so if he must use the clutch to move the car, why can't he use it to start the car?

seriously i don't understand.
its not as if he's going to have the door wide-open to start the car

 

Well it's rather annoying to get in the car, start it let it warm up and get in it again.
What exactly does this have to do with a solution again? Oh yeah; nothing.

 

i got it
well...good luck

 

The clutch sensor is hooked to the cruise control so it will disengage when the clucth is puched. I am not sure how he will fix it and still have non clutch starting.

 

Isn't there a way to plug it into a dummy sensor or something?

 

Go to the Audio/Security/Video link and ask them about it. Lot of people knows alot about car electrical. specially fcm.
