Exclamation Bypass clutch sensor

I have a 1992 7.3 F250, how do I bypass the sensor on the clutch pedal so the truck will start without the pedal depressed. There are 4 wires, 2 sets of the same color, going into the plug and I don't know which wires to splice together.

I know it's not a good Idea but its a quick fix till warmer weather. I have to push my pedal till my foot almost goes threw the floor because the post that attaches to the peal is severely worn. I have tried different washers to fix it but it's so bad they just break. I need to bypass it till spring. With this problem nobody else in my family can start my truck except me.

Ive looked and can't find any info on it.

two sets of wires.. one set disengages the cruise control when pedal is pressed... the other prevents starting until clutch is depressed.. unhook one set, clip together and see which is which. then connect accordingly.

I had the same problem, have you installed the firewall/master cylinder fix? It's a small plate that goes inside the truck on the firewall to prevent firewall flex. They have a TSB out on it. My clutch was like a new vehicle when I put that in!
