The sensor is a simple push button on the top of the clutch pedal frame. I don't recall if it's normally open or closed. I think it closes (ie grounds) when the pedal is depressed. In any case you can usually disconnect the wire and see if the starter will turn the engine.
Before I can give you a correct answer I really need to know mileage and if you have ever replaced clutch,clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder...You can do a quick look under driver side dash and see if clutch pedal return spring is broken or disconnected...Look at the top of the pedal...Also look under hood while you are at it and check clutch master cylinder for fullness..also check for any leaks from behind master cylinder ..?.There are different things to cause this.....Please send more info unless you see your problem..If you see something wrong I will be happy to guide you through a repair...Thanks..
You need to inspect the feed line if the return line is squezed or kinked in any place it will impede return and the cylinder will seem stuck. If the lines are servicable remove the cylinder and bench test and bleed. it might be a burr left in the cylinder. Also check travel of the pedal without the system in place. Finally When I replace one of these units I have to bleed it out of the vehicle with another person holding the slave cylinder because there is no bleed screw on the slave cylinder. If you removed the little brass screw you broke it. I find there is no way to get out all the air unless the slave cylinder is held verticle with consant pressure applied to the throw arm. Then when bled reinsert into vehicle.
Just push and then lift the clutch pedal toward you to adjust the cable. The mechanism is above the clutch pedal and is selfadjusting as liong as you lift the pedal. If that don't work then the adjust mechanism is junk.
The pedal return spring should be checked. Also the pedal bushings where pedal connects to the pedal support up under dash may be worn and not allowing free pedal movement. Work the pedal with your hand and watch the upper mounting of the pedal to see if you can see the problem. I would expect the bushings need replaced. You might try a little light oil where the clutch pedal attaches.
The clutch is not fully releasing. You can try putting it into some other gear first, then rapidly moving to first gear, but really, you need to either adjust the clutch, or get it repaired.
