According to the 2009 FSM, the interlock switch is a simple SPST switch - the module is looking for volts present or not. Some controls in the car are "smart", eg, window switches and SLU, but not the clutch interlock switch. Edit: Ie, the module doesn't know the switch is there until it closes.
Then shouldn't that mean that I could disconnect the switch entirely? When I press the button, it breaks the circuit, so shouldn't it just think the clutch is pressed if I disconnect the switch? I also tried a wire bridge and it didn't work.
