 PROBLEM RESOLVED
So - it turned out to be the clutch safety switch. Apparently, the prev owner had a clutch stop installed at some point and had bypassed the switch by duct taping it closed and moving it behind some of the wire harnesses (which is why I didn't see this the first time I got to look under the dash). After I found the switch, it was clear that it had moved to the open position. Holding it closed and turning the key started the car. Either tonight or tomorrow afternoon, I'll return it to its stock position. For now, I've just taped it back closed. |
