    If I installed clutch bypass switch, in knockout on dash, do I have to push the button on switch and turn the key to start at the same time? Also, can I just wire the two wires together at the clutch switch that the clutch activates and only have to turn the key to start the truck.

    1. Ignition on
    2. Clutch start cancel
    3. Start vehicle without depressing clutch

    do i push the button at the same time I turn the key or does the button stay on by itself until I turn the key and start the truck. In other words do I have to use both hands to start the truck if I install the bypass.

    No turn key on, press button, button will illuminate, make sure truck is out of gear or safe from running anything over, turn key and start truck.

    Where is the best place to buy the clutch bypass switch. Dealers in N.ca want about 90.00 to 120.00
