    Clutch Safety Switch

    Engine will not turn when clutch is depressed, but does turn when it clutch is not depressed. Is this a polarity problem or bad safety switch?

    Switch your connections to the other set of spade connectors. One set is normally open and the other is normally closed.

    Yes, what Papa said. The brake switch and clutch switch are opposite.
