No it doesnt shift at the column, it shifts at the floor. I dont know what this linkage is, but its definitely connected to the shifter somehow. My shifter is useless now, but putting tension/slack in the linkage does change how it feels. Just not enough to make it shift. There was nothing...

Ive got an 1988 XJ with the Renix 4.0. So I was an idiot, and in trying fix one problem I made another. Though thanks to some folks here, my initial problem is now fixed. I broke the steering column trim in my Jeep, and there seems to have been some integral part to the trim that held some...

Thank you for the info. I wont be able to get back on this until Friday morning, but Im going to try to run the brown wire back to its appropriate place. As ive been digging through and looking at things, I see where the previous owner spliced all kinds of things together or added other things...

Ok, so i think we may be narrowing down the issue. Where should the brown wire connect on the switch? The previous owner seems to have splice the brown wire and the yellow wire together in a "Y" formation, and they both connect to the ignition switch in the place at the yellow wire connects...

I figured out why it cranks in On and corrected that. Question- what is the brown wire? Where does it go? Whoever I bought this off of did some of their own wiring. It looks like they tied the yellow wire and the brown wire together in the harness, and brought it down to where it plugs in...

I figured out why I was cranking in "On" - the ground and yellow wire were reversed on their posts on the switch. So now it only cranks Start, but still no power to anywhere else. I removed the wires from the connector completely. Still nothing.

Ok, then after seeing this, I can tell you that it will begin cranking in the "On" position. If i leave it there, it will just crank and crank. Moving it to Start, it will keep cranking and spring back to "On", but continue cranking. I have to physically move it back to one of the other 3...

I dont know how to edit posts - is there anything I can jumper together at the switch to cause accessories to come on? Im at the point where Id be willing to forgoe a key and ignition switch altogether and make the whole damn thing switches and push button start.

I have tried 2 different ignition switches, 1 brand new and 1 less than 2 weeks old. Both give the same result.

Hasta Ok, so assuming I did this correctly, and assuming you mean a yellow wire and an orange wire (I do not have an orange/yellow striped wire)... I ran a some jumpers to the known good ground at the firewall. Probing the ignition switch, I get 12v at the red wire, but I get 0.0v at both...

Just saw this so Ill have to do it tomorrow. So i tested each side of the fusible links with my DVM and had continuity, so im assuming they are good. I also pulled out a spark plug and set it on the valve cover, and had no spark while cranking. So no spark.. does that leave the ICM and...

Ive tripled checked ignition switch and tried 2 different ones with the same result. Im definitely considering the starter relay. Is there a way i can go about checking the fusible links?

Forgot to add - I also swapped in another ECM I had around from a planned upgrade. It didnt change anything either. Its actually cranking stronger than it was before after all this, but still not firing. Im lost.

Hey folks. I joined because all my internet searches lead me to here. I have a 1988 XJ with Renix 4.0 and the AW4. So the Friday before last, I parked my Jeep after work like usual. Got into it Monday morning, and it would crank but not start. I also noticed that I had no power at the...
