The brake is probably from an erratic wheel sensor. Check codes, may have stored it in history. If there are several, then you need a scanner to watch the wheel sensors. see which one is dropping out. The transmission jump is from a bad master or slave cylinder. The system is not depressing the throw out bearing far enough, leaving the clutch slightly engaged.
if cable check the cable for broken wires --replace the cable
if hydraulic , replace the clutch master cylinder
even though the pedal feels good if it is a cable it may be jamming and not allowing full pressure on the clutch plate by the pressure plate
same with the hydraulic system
have some one operate the clutch pedal while you check the throw out arm at the box bell housing
It should have around 2" or more movement
If your shifter wont move to get it in gear, most likely the clutch is not disengaging when you depress the pedal to change gears. Its a hydraulic clutch, check that the reservoir is full on fluid.
If you find the switch, you can temporarily jump across it, 'till you get a new one. When you go to buy it you are looking for a clutch switch. Neutral switches are found on automatic trans vehicles. If you jump it out, be VERY careful to make sure you start in neutral with the clutch depressed as without the switch, it will start in any gear even with the clutch engaged.
how much clutch pedal do you have when the car is running does the pedal feel loose? if the clutch is not disengaging when depressed it is most likely time for a new clutch
