Hey guys im trying to get the ignition back together were it was all riped out. I got the peice thats the auto lock key assembly kinda back together, they car NOW get power but when i try to start it, it would turn over. The clutch pedal is kinda week becuase they bent it getting the clutch lock off. I also saw that when they broke the whole assembly off the streering wheel there was a metal peice that once touched the metal on the streering wheel--i hope this makes sense if not then oh well LOL.

from what i see there are no wire cut at all. How is the clutch not engaging(sp)???




the piece that i circled in red in what i put back together and made the car have all its power.

 

if it won't turn over i'd say that points towards the ignition wire

 

yeah........... do the civics have a sensor on the clutch somewere that relays to the compture that its to the floor or ingaged??

they could'vemessed it up when they used the pry-bar on the clutch lock.

 

yea there's a clutch safety switch

 

could i do this just to make it run for an hour?? would you have a diagram or a step by step im alittle comfused on were this switch is located

thanks

 

switch is located at the top of the clutch pedal
i've never done it before, but from a simple understanding of electric circuits i can tell that there must be 2 wires coming off of the switch that are part of the same current and the switch interrupts the current, so if you put the two wires together and leave the switch out of the equation it should be right.

 

i duno about newer civics but i know egs have a neutral safety switch on the clutch i can tell you how to get rid of it i had to do mine cause it broke

 

you have two plugs going to your clutch pedal. The bottom one is the one you need. Just unplug it and jump the two wires together. The top one is for cruise control and if you don't have the top plug it's because your car doesn't need it. Hopw that helps.

 

thanks ill look in the morning

 

bummer dude, similar **** happened to my car

 

hope you get it figured out man. its not hard to bypass it. just dont make a habit of starting your car with out pushing the clutch in lol

 

ok so i went out and i looked under the dash by the clutch and all wires seen to be ok. i didnt find the switch or anything like that. I did see a white box or a conector-all wires were ok-- there is so many wires and the space is extremly tight i just felt around and everything seemd to be ok, just the pedal arm need the floor board(fire wall) is extremly bent and its off track is facing the brake pedal. If i bend it back so it fits in the track would that help?? im def goin to have to get a pry bar for this.
