Hello all,
Hoping someone can give a hand....so my ST has had kind of intermittent starting issues due to a failing clutch safety switch(presumed). What would happen on a semi regular basis was I would hit the start button and have a no start situation(no starter engagement). I naturally operated the clutch pedal a few times and it would then start. This went on for a bit, however recently it totally failed i believe. Come to find out we have 2 safety switches, and I had tried jumping the switch that is easily accessible but to no avail. So I just went ahead and purchased a new switch to replace the one I didn't check(the one that reads from the top, where the plunger is depressed when the clutch pedal is not depressed). What I'm hoping someone has some insight to is how the heck do I get to it? I'm plenty capable of it, I just want to avoid doing unnecessary stuff. Anyone? Thanks to all!

I had intermittent issues starting, I would engage the clutch and hit the button and my display would say press clutch to start, but it turned out to be a bad battery 🤷🏼‍♂️
