Is it std or automatic?
If automatic , check the neutral safety switch, if std check the clutch safety switch.

Usually located on the clutch linkage between the pedal and the clutch fork. Look for a switch on the rod that moves when you step on the clutch pedal.

it's just to the left of your brake light switch mounted the same way.
