Trying to start the car

ok i think i have something to go off of finally. looked at wiring diagrams and what not to see where all the ignition switch runs through. checked the fuses it would go through and all came up good. long story short back when i did the 5spd swap in the car i had to cut a wire on the starter relay. the wire i had to splice into for the clutch pedal pulled out of the plug so i cut the wires off the plug and added connectors on the wires to plug them individually into the relay. it seems like the clutch pedal isn't flipping the switch so to say so to bypass it im gonna ground it and see what happens. grounding it the clutch pedal doesn't have to be pushed down for the car to start
