Restore a safe, clutch-in start with the Standard Ignition Clutch Starter Safety Switch (NS-205). This switch lets the starter crank only when the clutch pedal is fully depressed, so a manual-transmission engine won't turn over in gear. It's a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of GM trucks and SUVs, including the 2001-2005 Chevrolet Blazer, 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2001-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, 2001-2004 Chevrolet S10, 2002-2005 GMC Jimmy, 1999-2001 GMC Sierra 1500, 2001-2006 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, and 2001-2004 GMC Sonoma — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 26 applications and the engine-level fitment.
Signs this switch may need replacing include a starter that cranks without the clutch pressed, or an engine that won't crank even with the clutch fully depressed. If a failed clutch safety switch is the cause, this replaces it; diagnose the circuit first, as other components can produce similar symptoms.
