Glad to hear it's working again. Keep the spare handy. It sounds like you fixed the problem (not just an intermittent that went away for a while), but the switch is likely to fail again soon.

According to the 2009 FSM, the interlock switch is a simple SPST switch - the module is looking for volts present or not. Some controls in the car are "smart", eg, window switches and SLU, but not the clutch interlock switch. Edit: Ie, the module doesn't know the switch is there until it closes.
