Default Name That Switch....

What is the switch for the clutch that is right behind the quadrant? It is just 2 wires with a female spade style connector. The wiring comming off of it is about 6-8 inches long. Anyone know what it is or what wiring connects to it? I don't have an extra connector for it on the main harness under the dash....

You would think so but its not. That switch is on the left side right above the pedal and had 2 plugs going to it.
This is the switch and wiring in question.
