BRZ won't start (Problem solved)

Problem solved: Loose switch connection (underneath the clutch... don't know what the name is).

The car (BRZ sports tech/ limited) won't start and is stuck at ACC mode (electrical components ON). Also the keyless access is blinking green (not yellow).

I made sure that the parking brake is set, on neutral, brakes and clutch in.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Check your brake fuses. Mine had the same problem, my buddy who works in the Nissan plant blew two of my fuses with his multi meter because he had it on the wrong setting -.-

How do I check or where is the brake fuses. I know the brake lights works when I step on the brakes.

Under the steering wheel on the left side is one of the fuse boxes, jus use the diagram to find the right one. Can't remember where on the top of my head. Another in the engine bay. I also don't remember if my brake lights were working or not because I was way to upset haha.

Problem fixed. It was a loose switch underneath the clutch. It was my own wrong doing... was trying to adjust the clutch height earlier today.
