The lights should not be connected to the clutch. You might want to check the grounds. There should a ground wire on each cornner of the radiator support by the hood bumper and one off the negative battery cable. After that, it's probably miss wired. I don't have the wiring manuals handy. Let me know if you need more help and I will look it up. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
