Okay so this is related to a no start issue and yes I've searched through three different forums and read all possibilities. And so far I've narrowed it down the the clutch interlock relay, ignition switch or bad ground. The clutch switch has been bypassed and been working great for 1 yr, alternator, starter and battery I was checked 3 times at autozone. It all started the other day when I started the car in gear and the car jumped. I tried starting it again and nope power cuts out completely even when I stick the key to on no power, no radio light, ect. I can jump start the car but it'll die if I don't rev it. And when I try starting it just makes a CLICK! and power cuts out. Please help, KA-T.org was no help at all...

Maybe a bad ground on the battery terminal. The only thing that wouldn't pertain to the ground is that you have to rev the car after jumped. check connections at the battery and clean the plug on the alternator and see if that helps.
