Welcome to 2CarPros.
If the clutch has no resistance, first, open the hood and check the clutch fluid in the clutch master cylinder reservoir. If it is empty, refill it and watch if you can locate a leak. Next, have a helper pump the clutch pedal to help you locate the leak.
Either the clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, or a line is bad. You need to find the leak.
Here are the directions for replacing the clutch master cylinder. The attached pictures correlate with these directions.
