2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Remove the clutch pedal position switch. (See CLUTCH PEDAL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Specification:







4. Inspect continuity between the clutch pedal position switch terminals using an ohmmeter.
- If not as specified, replace the clutch pedal position switch.
- If clutch pedal position switch is okay, but PID value is out of specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".

5. Reconnect the clutch pedal position switch connector.

Circuit Open/Short Inspection

Open circuit
- If there is no continuity, the circuit is open. Repair or replace the harness.
- Power circuit (Clutch switch connector terminal A and PCM connector terminal 4I through common connector.)
- GND circuit (Clutch switch connector terminal B and GND.)

Short circuit
