I have a 89 4.0 Renix. I took it wheeling a few weeks ago went through a mud hole right after getting through it Jeep died had to wait about 20 mins and it started. I finally took it to the car wash clean it up. Cleaned the engine and XJ would not start afterwards.
So I towed it home. WDed all the connectors and got it run. Took it to work couple days no probs died on me once. I moved it out of driveway and it died again. So I tried replacing the ignition switch didn't make any difference.
I checked my Fuse links and they were fine. When I turn on the key the starter turns. When I turn it to run there is no acc., no fuel pump, no head lights, no turn signals, nothing is working other then the starter. So took my voltmeter and tested the body. The body has 12v when the key is on. No volts when the key is off. So I take it have a short somewhere. I have no idea and I was wondering if anyone knows where I should start looking.
