Everything works.
Volt gauge shows all is good.
Had to push start.

Ignition tumbler or something else?

Stupid Heeps!

Sounds like ignition switch or security?

Immortal · August 11th, 2012, 05:30 PM

No security.
I turn the key and nothing. No clicking noise either.
Maybe starter?

CSFJ · August 11th, 2012, 05:38 PM

starter relay?

Use the tried and true method. Smack the bitch and see if it rolls over.

Or use a test light on the wiring

i'd start with starter relay,
then starter, than ignition switch

Starter or battery. My jeep did the same earlier this summer out of the blue. It.was a shitty connection at the battery.

My fix/diagnosis

I pull out my shitty cheap voltmeter and start reading the instructions.......

So I put that back away.

I go and grab my medium size ballpeen hammer and start beating on the starter! I turn the key and it fires up!
Starter is the problem.
