I have a 2002 TJ jeep 6 cyl 4.0. On the clutch pedal there is a part that attactes to the firewall. This is a black plastic, that has 2 wires attached to it. This part has become detatched and can slide up and down the link.
What is this part called. My Jeep is still covered but I like to tell them what needs to be done otherwise ...
Thanks
Clutch interlock switch ? Serves two functions - prevents the Jeep from starting unless the clutch is depressed, and switches off cruise control if you are daft enough to change gear without disengaging first.

Place the car in Neutral and see if it will start without depressing the clutch pedal.
Drive the car and set the Cruise Control, then see if the cruise disengages when the clutch pedal is depressed.
I'm not sure what you have found, but I think it is the Clutch Safety Switch. These two tests should tell us something about that.
That is the clutch interlock switch.

It's a doohickey. Unless it's grey plasic then it's a doodad. The thingamajig has a light on it. They didn't replace the doohickey with a what'is till sometime later.
