how to jump the safety neutral switch
how to jump the safety neutral switch
unplug it from the clutch pedal assembly, and use a piece of wire, cottor pin, or the appropriate connector to jump it.

or just fix it....(the right way)
Take the two wires going to it, and connect them together. Simple as that.

hey you settle down big boyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
The EMPIRE
y do u need it jumped just asking.
Maybee he doesn't want to put stress on his thrust bearing when he is starting the car. Thats when most of the wear is put on the thrust bearing.
OMG..Cmon with that crap. I have seen many cars with 150K miles without a issueOriginally Posted by Batlground
Its designed for safety!!!!
Which I am far against when it comes to Jing Ah Booing.... And the safety of others... I guess you never heard the story's about this crap. I have witness this first hand when my next door shade tree mechanic did this and one day his kid was in the car and started it and it took off into the tree's.. Lucky the kid was ok, but sadley many people have gotten seriously hurt,and killed by doing this... Which makes it illegal for alarms with remote start be installed with a 5 speed in GA from dealers/shops
Get out of here
That's odd I had a remote start installed on our 6-speed accord at a shop no problem....Originally Posted by Tech5
I think it's fine as long as it has some sort of safety mechanism.
Who knows?

I bet they will pass your emiisons too for a fee...That is Illegal too.
But the kill switch for the brake still wont stop the car if you engaged the clutch and put into gear, or left into a gear and remote start it , and it will take off also.
So to the answer your question/answer/comment
its because the place you went to isnt a Corp bussiness and they don't care as long they make the money ...A High end Corp bussiness will not install this as its against the law and safety issues.
LOL at Best Buy being "high end".
some cars have a 4 wire connector because the NSS is also the switch for the back-up lights. To find the wires for the NSS you just put the car in park and see which two wires have continuity with a multi-meter.
I guess one would want to by-pass the NSS as a test to see if the NSS is bad or not. Or if you're swapping from auto to 5 speed. Those are the only reasons I can think of.
High Corp is what I meant not they do high end work big difference there buddy. Best buy workers are high school drop outs making 8 bucks an hour that can't get a real mechanic's job...No harm to those that work for them.Originally Posted by Total_Blender
High end as in a million dollar company not a Mom and Pops that take everything legal or illegal just to make ends meet that week/month...
Best buy has more to lose then a MOM and POPS shop!
I am sure you have taken apart motors that use 2700 pound pressure plates and inspected the thrust bearings. I have.Originally Posted by Tech5
I get your point about the safety issues of disabling the neutral safety switch.
i just had to rebuild my ITR because of the ACT clutch that was on it. thrust bearing was almost completely gone and it ate a nice groove in the crank.that was a good reason to throw the ls crank and rods in there..
so all of my cars have the clutch switch mod now.
also when i worked at circuit city, i installed many remote starts on 5 speed cars. just sayin
actually the remote start system on our accord had to be setup so that the car cannot be started in gear, you have to do a series of stuff before arming the alarm to ensure that the car isn't in gear or the remote start function will not work. that's why it is legal.
Who knows?
I am sure You might do that but if the higher ups found out they will FIRE you ... Just sayin....Originally Posted by LSTurboHatch
BTW what does it matter for the clutch switch modd or not... I mean how many times do you go to crank the car ???
Versus sitting in traffic pumping the clutch in and out, or at the track staging pumping it in and out???
You will mash the clutch in more driving then actually starting a car....
So this is all none proven facts...

bah i live in TN we dont have laws like that so i wouldnt get fired lol.. circuit city doesnt exist here anymore anyways.
Correct .... I agree with that ..But many cars will not accept those modds which makes it illegal.....Originally Posted by Identity_Crisis
Naw meannn
But besides just the legal issue I rather argue the fact that it does nothing to mash a clutch in or not cranking a car.....
Most of all the circuit citys are closed ...Originally Posted by LSTurboHatch
So do you prime your car by unplugging the dizzy or fuel before each start too>>>????
I mean there isnt any oil presure and the head is dry too...![]()

why would you have to unplug anything? if you want to prime an engine you just use an accumulator. i know for fact the sti will have one with the new motor. you can never be too careful. have 60+psi oil pressure BEFORE ever turning the motor over![]()
Who knows?
