    The clutch switch is under the dash up near the hinge of pedal. There is just a square plastic box with 4 wires coming out of it mounted on a bracket next to the pedal arm. The switch is a solid state magnetic type so it doesn't physically make contact with the arm. You have to remove the kick panel around all the pedals to get to it. You really have push the pedal through the firewall it seems sometimes, if you have a floor mat that is restricting the pedal travel, that might be your problem.

    ok update on starting problem, took in to Crawford truck repair in Aberdeen SD and after 2 days trying to figure this out they think they found a problem. there a wire going from back of the dash to the starter that was to small for the amps/voltage so the had to run a new wire and so far its been starting
