My 87 Renix wouldn't start. The battery was fully charged, but it wouldn't crank. The sarter was fine. I did some research and decided it could be the neutral safety switch. To bypass the switch, I did the following.
BE CAREFUL - your Jeep will now start in gear. Thats a bad thing.
Here you can see the black jump wire I attached to the terminal on the relay.

- Locate the starter relay just behind the battery. Its a silver box with lots of wires coming out of it.
- One of the wires coming off the relay will be black with a white stripe. Find it, and pull it off the relay.
- Attach a jump wire with an aligator clip to the terminal on the relay where you just pulled the wire from.
- Attach the other end of the jump wire to the negative battery terminal
