CP Jeep Folks
2001 XJ, won't turn over. Electric works. Took it to a shop I thought I trusted yesterday who said the starter was bad and replaced it. Picked it up and brought it home last night. Just went out to run some errands and it won't turnover, same thing, electric fine just won't start.
Any thoughts on what's wrong with it? This thing has been stolen a few times in the past, ignition maybe? Did I totally get jobbed on replacing the starter yesterday? ***it's an aids thing, I completely understand*** ***off road through an antifreeze puddle*** |

Engine needs fuel, air, spark. Check for spark at a plug. You have that, and it isn't electrical. I don't know about "newer" jeeps. Mine is 68 years old. Not sure what '01 jeeps have as far as fuel systems. surely not carbureted?

Ignition starter switch or the Neutral Safety Switch. NSS is expensive as hell. Can be self reconditioned if you are comfortable doing so.

Was replacing the starter logical, or was that bullshit? I'm just trying to get some insight before I take it back up there to have them look at it again. |

For a shade tree mechanic it might be but not for a shop. They could have checked to see if the starter was -1st, getting power-2cnd, would crank when it did get power. Someone didn't take the time to diagnose it correctly.

I'm betting it's the bold. I had a car with a manual that had the safety switch on the clutch go out and it did the same thing (wouldn't even try to turn over though electrical stuff worked).

my 90s cherokee had a NSS problem. If you can start it by pushing the gear shifter forward it's the NSS. I can't remember if mine wouldn't turn over or if there was nothing happening at all when I turned the key.

Electrical will function. Purpose is to prevent ability to start when in gear. For safety reasons the NSS will only allow start in park or neutral.
