Car won't start!...and it's not the Steering Lock...

Any thoughts as to what might be causing the problem on Tracie's 7AT?

I was looking at this diagram from the service manual


as well as the diagram on this website trying to figure it out 251 Switch :: Body Electrical :: Genuine Nissan Parts :: 370Z Parts (Z34) 2009-2013 :: Nissan Parts, NISMO and Nissan Accessories - Courtesyparts.com

There are two switches for each the brake and clutch pedals. One switch on each pedal assembly appears to be basically the same thing: 25320N is the brake part and 25320Q is the clutch - both are called 370Z SWITCH ASSY-ASCD CANCEL on the parts website. In the service manual, the one on the brake pedal assembly is called the ASCD Brake Switch, and it makes sense to me that this would be the culprit. What throws me off is the equivalent ASCD switch on the clutch pedal assembly is referred to as the Clutch Pedal Position Switch and does not appear to be the switch that wheee! fixed to solve his problem. Is it possible that the other switch on the brake pedal assembly (#8 Stop Lamp Switch in the service manual) is the switch responsible for allowing the vehicle to start?
