This may take 5 minutes, but the screw to release the connector is a pain to get to. I spent 10 minutes yesterday and didn't get it done as I ran out of time before I had to run out.

Sorry to resurrect an older thread but I believe I'm having the same issue. Is this the switch? I'm thinking I'll replace it myself this weekend so I don't have to wait at the dealership.

Just make sure you are in neutral!
I read that u can adjust the switch does anybody have a photo to guide me to that switch? I have a 2011 Boxster spyder and the past couple days I have this problem.

After a week I couldn’t start the car but after a week I have no more problem starting the car now and for the couple months the clutch had no problem. I didn’t adjust the switch or did anything to the clutch. Weird.
