On vehicles equipped with “one push” or “keyless” start function, the clutch switches are monitored to check they are functioning correctly. This monitoring function is not sufficient to detect a switch malfunction in all cases. If the clutch switch fails and is not detected correctly, it may be possible to start the car in gear without the clutch being depressed. This unexpected vehicle behaviour may cause an accident.
