Dorman - HD Solutions Clutch Starter Safety Switch P/N:901-0003
Help make sure your truck cranks only with the clutch pedal pressed with the Dorman - HD Solutions Clutch Starter Safety Switch 901-5207. This heavy-duty Dorman switch is a direct-fit replacement for the 2007-2020 Freightliner Cascadia. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine specifics.
A clutch starter safety switch monitors clutch pedal position. It is designed to complete the starting circuit only when the pedal is depressed, which helps prevent the engine from being started in gear. If a worn or failed switch is causing a no-crank condition, or a starter that engages without the clutch pressed, this unit replaces it.
