Hi all, I'm preparing for a big road trip in about a week (god help me), so naturally my 2000 XJ has decided now is a good time to start giving me some unexpected trouble.
For the past few days, about every other time I try and crank it, all the battery powered stuff clicks on but there's no sound from the engine at all. Wiggle the shifter, it gets going just fine, which made me suspect the NSS. Before I add on to my already pretty big tune-up budget and buy a new one, I wanted to be as sure as possible its the NSS. Again, it cranks up just fine about half the time, isn't throwing any codes, and my backup lights are working.
What's the best way to confirm for sure that it is the NSS? What else might be giving me these specific symptoms? Any advice much appreciated!
