Default 1996 Accord EX 2.2L

I purchased a 1996 Accord EX 2.2L and found out the previous owner had installed an alarm system and messed everything up. I removed the alarm then I discovered that he also replaced the female flag connectors on one end of the ignition switch cable connector in the wrong spaces, so I put them back by placing them in the same spots as the other end. Now, when I depress the clutch pedal, the engine cranks over, LOL!! If I turn the key to start it starts. Any ideas?

There is a short somewhere between your ignition switch and your clutch switch. That circuit is staying hot and depressing the clutch closes the entire circuit to start the car.
