Default Clutch Safety Switch blues 911 Covid free

Well, car won’t start, took out the starter passed 3 times,,, new battery,,, new Alternator,,,
if I pop the clutch she runs looked a 308
if I step on the clutch to try and start her nothing
the rubber stopper came off so if I hold the switch in with my finger and turn it over it just clicks and does not start or turn over and try to start?
I have checked the fuses
HELP please Help, no idea what to do
and I can’t get my hand in there to remove the clutch switch to try and bypass it (any tips to remove it? )
should I scrap here and get a Toyota?
I need a expert

to remove the clutch pedal you first have to loosen the clutch cable all the way and then theres a 14mm nut on the left side of it

but what you really need to do is see if your getting spark at the starter when your trying to start the car
disconnect the wire that goes to the solenoid on the starter
and make sure its getting 12 volts when your trying to crank the motor over
with the clutch pressed down

Didn’t know you could take the clutch pedal off like that, got a photo of that assembly?

the car is getting spark, it runs, and starts when you pop the clutch...

what else could it be? I’m at a loss here
thanks anyone with a answer

Try removing the plug from the back of the clutch switch and jumping it. That way you can at least rule out a faulty switch as the issue. 5 minutes and you'll know if the switch is the problem, or if you need to start looking elsewhere.
