Default what pin is the clutch switch on the PCM?

2000 Trans Am

Trying to put my 2 step in, and I have nothing in pin 35 where it should be. Kinda getting frustrated right now. Any help would be great.

ok so I found that pin 32 on the blue connector is it, but the voltage does not change on me with it in or out.

Yea, I was going to say it's C1 (which is blue) and pin 32 is the clutch pedal anticipation wire IIRC it grounds through the VCM.
There is a C2 32.

Heres a link to the schematic I used when I converted from an A4 to M6.

It is a ground because some guys just run the wire to ground and it kind of works but not correctly.

Yes, in a book.
I could be wrong but there might be one in the manual trans forum, the sticky about A4 to M6 swap, it's not in the auto trans forum sticky.

I may know off the top of my head, IIRC there are two switches on the top of the pedal arm and one on the floor for the neutral safety. What do you need to know?

Here are a few more schematics.

There are two switches, one for crusie control and one for starting system.

No there are three switches. Two on top for cruise control, and other things. One on the bottom for the starter, nothing else.
I have argued this before.
You want the car to start with the clutch pedal on the floor.
You want cruise to release as soon as you tap the pedal.

I did not look under my dash, was just going by what I found in schematics.

They must use 1 for Cruise to PCM, 1 in series with Cruise Brake switch to Cruise Control Module, and the third to Starter Relay.
