HELP: I broke my clutch ignition switch?
Ok, new pair of shoes on this morning, and they are more clunky than i anticipated. I must have half asleep stuck my foot to high when pressing the clutch to start my car.
There is a tiny little push switch that tells the car the clutch is pressed in, so you can start it, its on a little tab high up on the clutch. Well i must have stuck my foot in between the tab that pushes it and the clutch petal and i somehow managed to break the tiny little thing that pushes in. I saw it on the floor mat after i got down on my hands and knees after not starting for a few mins.
I managed to start my car by taking apart a ball point pen, and sticking it with my hand into the tiny hole, and then turning the key.
It works, but how the heck am i going to get something to stay in tehre permanantly without getting down on all fours every time i want to start my car?
I was thinking of maybe getting some tiny dowel rod and cutting it to size.
Good lord how the heck did i manage to even do this?
jon!
