To start or not to start?

Think it could be the switch that tell the car that the clutch is/isn't pushed in?

If that switch is bad, the car won't know the clutch pedal is down and therefore, won't start (or even attempt to).

Yes. Could definitely be that as well. That's an easy one to bypass to test (pull the connector off the switch and insert a jumper between the two pins).
