Dang really? I've seen on this forum some people say theirs doesn't have a clutch switch and didn't come with one
And no i haven't tried push starting it, we really just want to actually get it to actually run by itself

But could my theory still be possible? I've read some people with the same issue and they said a new key with a working chip made their car start right up
