There is a switch you'll need to adjust so that it senses the clutch is pushed in. You'll need to pull on the switch part to extend the switch so that the car senses the clutch is pushed in and will allow you to start it. I'll try to search for a picture or link for you. This is a common problem when someone takes off the clutch bracket.

Just give it a good tug and it will come back out. I had to pull on it pretty good then it finally extended. I was scared of breaking it too, but you wont break it.
