    I thought that was part of another little sub harness at the front? Probably have to look at a parts list.

    Trace the clutch switch wires from your old harness, compare to your new harness. Find where some idjit cut off the wires for your new harness and splice in the clutch switch wiring from your old harness, BOOM fixed that shit.

    The wires for the clutch lever switch are part of the controls pigtail and not the main harness as shown in this eBay listing

    Hope that link works...
