The key cylinder has no electrical parts in it, it only moves a long steel rod up and down the side of the steering column. The rod moves a slider switch that sits on top of the steering column way down under the dash, above the brake peddle. Google "ignition switch Jeep
" and you will find many great pictorial ans how to threads on that switch. That is just one of many parts in the start / run circuit!!! But it sounds like you are trying to say it is dead in the run and start positions, but not the ACC position. Also Google "No start Naxja Jeep" and should find a days worth of threads on troubleshooting no starts on jeeps.
