Default Clutch safety switch for starting

Does anybody know how to by-pass the safety switch on the clutch for starting the JK? I know its probably on here somewhere but I'm at work and don't have time to look for it, I need to check on more youtube wheeling videos .

Only because I'm generally lazy and don't want to engage the clutch to start it up.

i have a habit of putting it in gear once the engine is off. i've had my vehicle jump forward a few times. i'd be scared to disconnect that. folks with manuals who install remote starters bypass it, so it can be done. i think it's a fuse that you can remove, i just don't know which one. i bet you james76 will know or can check at his work.

WOW, I didn't know you could get a remote start with a manual tranny. I would be scared to start it from my living room and watch it tear across the neighbors yard Thanks for the info!

Buy a Toyota, they have buttons on the dash for that (I assume they still do).
