A shorted CPP switch refers to a neutral safety switch, also known as a clutch pedal position (CPP) switch, having an electrical issue where there is a direct electrical connection or bypass in the switch instead of the expected open or closed circuit. This can cause problems with starting the vehicle as the switch may not properly detect the clutch pedal's position.

Can a switch in the off position cause electrical short circuit?
No, once the switch is turned off the circuit is de energized. A de energized circuit can not be shorted out to create a fault.
How do you fix a light switch after two live wires touch?
There has to be more to this question for a good answer. For the most part a light switch has two contacts, with a wire at each one. One live wire and another going to the light itself. There is also a neutral wire return (from the light to the electrical panel). There is only one live wire in any electrical circuit. [Please, don't flame me with examples of multiple electrical sources in circuitry. We're talking about home lighting.] If somehow you shorted the live wire from the switch to the electrical box (ground) or to another wire in the box, it was only momentary and you can just proceed with replacing the switch. It's a good idea to turn off the power first.
In a shorted circuit what happens to the temperature of the wires?
In a shorted circuit, the temperature of the wires can increase rapidly due to the increased current flowing through them. This can lead to overheating and potential damage to the wires or surrounding components. It is important to address short circuits promptly to prevent safety hazards.
What are reasons for arcing at the commutator?
A shorted coil or shorted coils in the rotor will cause arcing at the commutator. It should also be noted that if the brushes are damaged badly enough where they make contact with the commutator, this can cause arcing. Oh, and let's not forget that a stuck brush or brush spring will prevent a brush from making proper contact with the commutator. Arcing can result from that, too.
My 250 volt wire to my Kenmore electric range shorted out with a large pop. I relaxed the 250 volt wire but range still doesn't work. What's going on?
If the wire shorted out, it's possible that other components in the range could have been damaged as well, such as fuses, circuit boards, or heating elements. It's important to have a professional inspect the range to determine the extent of the damage and make the necessary repairs. Using the range without addressing the problem could be a safety hazard.

I can start my 1995 Chevy S-10 by turning the key to the on position and pushing down the clutch but I cant shift because the starter spins every time I push in the clutch why does this happen?
the ignition switch is shorted or wires shorted at the switch. Your clutch safety switch is just doing it's job and completing the circuit when pushed.

Can a switch in the off position cause electrical short circuit?
No, once the switch is turned off the circuit is de energized. A de energized circuit can not be shorted out to create a fault.
