Clutch engaugment starter switch for manual conversion

[v8e36]

Hi team,

I'm doing a manual swap and one area that I haven't found any information on is if a manual converted car has to have a clutch engagement switch wired in that disables the starter motor from working unless the clutch pedal is depressed.

I didn't find any notes about this in the LVV documents.

If someone could shed light on this it would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers
Mike

Hi Mike

There is no requirement for a clutch switch for a manual swap, it is only automatic transmissions that require an inhibitor switch fitted.
