Clutch Switch ?

How do I disable the clutch switch?
I am guessing that I have 1 wire going in and 1 coming out. I would just cut those wires and conncet them together!
Thanks for the help!

That's what I did, but if I remember correctly there were 3 wires.

Is it just a straight wire to wire connection?
Also, can I just yank the switch totally out?

Thanks!

It's been over a year but I just removed the switch, cut the wires and spliced the two I needed together and capped the left over wire.

I cut the switch off and tied the two wires together, leaving the stock wiring intact so that I could replace the switch eventually.

That fixed it!
I disconnected the female plug from the switch. I then cut the plug off and twisted the wires together. I then soldered them and it works great. Car starts everytime.

Thanks Again!!!!!
