1991 Cherokee Sport
4.0 HO, 5spd Ax15, 2wd (no tcase), no ABS
Neutral safety switch (clutch switch) already bypassed when I bought it
My ignition went out last week and I thought it was the lock cylinder. Replaced the lock cylinder to no avail meaning it’s the actuator pin. It still started with key on and jumping the starter solenoid. I went to put a button in to give the starter relay power (pin 86) and accidentally put the wire on the auto shutdown relay (pin 86) at first. I realized what I did and put the wire in the “proper” position (as if what I’m doing is proper), but now it won’t start. Will crank but no start.
I know from googling that the auto shutdown relay is controlling the injectors, coil, fuel pump, probably interfaces with the brain on the opposite fender and in turn the crank position sensor. I can still hear my fuel pump kicking on when the key is turned leading me to believe it’s one of the other things in that list. Still have to check spark to rule the coil out. Can’t tell for sure but can’t hear the injectors clicking so I’m thinking no fuel. Am I lucky enough to have not fried my brain or sensor? :wow: Am I missing anything? :doh:
