Before the current problem, to start the car, did you have to depress the clutch pedal for the starter to work? That would be normal on a car that has a Interlock switch on the clutch pedal. MOST RX have this feature. Some early ones did not and some have been disabled due to problems with the interlock. So the question needs to be answered to be able to figure this out.
