Hello all,
I bought a 95 YJ a few months ago and now I'm a beginner mechanic. I had the jeep running but it wouldn't always start on the first turn of the key. I usually turn the key off and then back on again then I would (hopefully) hear a click, click, click errrrrrm sound and the jeep would start. I checked the starter and the solenoid. They both checked out. I replaced the ignition lock cylinder but not the ignition switch actuator. Then I decided I needed a new ignition starter switch. I got the old one off and the new one on but now it doesn't crank. The dash lights work and the headlights are working... But, when I turn the key to start it, I get nothing... nothing not even a click.
What did I do wrong?
