Clutch safety switch under dash?

Does the safety switch have an adjustment or anything on it or can it be replaced or what? Mine is now not working right..have to reach under dash & pull on it to get it to engage the starter..any ideas?
Thanks,Brian

What year is the truck? On the 99+ trucks there is no adjustment on the CPP switch, but there is a positioning clip that holds it in place. Dunno if it's the same on the 94-97.

Mine is a 94.5 or smae as a 95 I guess..It did have a lil clip looking thing but I didnt know where it came from or how to reinstall it & what its purpose was..It doesnt look like you can just change the safety switch out but may be able to..

I would just as soon get rid of it . I've been driving long enough to know to push the clutch in when starting my truck ! Same goes for the warning buzzers ( which I disabled ) . How did we know to push the clutch in to start or take the keys with us before all this crap ? Guess I'm just gittin old and set in my ways !

Hey..that would work for me..but my luck my 3 year old would get in it at sometime & start it & off he goes..I had a friend of mine his lil boy(3 at the time) started a car & somehow got it in drive & totaled it by hitting a tree...I wouldnt even know how to bypass it anyways..several wires running into there..
