Clutch Switch wiring

Correct,  they're short.  All the diode does is to allow the starter motor when in gear provided the clutch is in.  It's ok to leave it out - it's just more inconvenient.

OK Mike Thankyou, looking at DS, they're £25 and out of stock so maybe I'll leave it out.

Thanks

I'll have a look in my pile onthe weekend.

stevush:
Great stuff, thanks

I've studied the circuit and ran some simulations.  If no diode is available there are two alternatives;

*  Leave the diode out
    This means it will only start when the clutch is pulled in, even when in neutral.

*  Short the diode out.
    It will work as normal except pulling the clutch in makes the neutral light come on

This is the best option
