Thank you!!! This series of videos just saved my ass in a big way. I was driving down a bumpy secondary highway and my keys FELL OUT of the ignition while I was driving. I drove another hour to the beer store, bought beer and then I experienced the same issue. Had to tow the jeep and then used this exact fix to get the beast running again! If I ever come back east to visit my buddies I'll pop by with a case of Schooner for ya 😉. Cheers 🍻
This video helped me a bunch. I have an 02 TJ with the same problem. On mine the ignition wire is yellow. I took a 3 inch piece of solid wire and stripped the ends. I pushed one end into the red wire harness slot, then pushed the other end into the yellow wire slot in the harness. The starter started turning immediately. FYI : make sure your Jeep is in neutral with the brake on.
I had the issue many have. Turn the key to start the vehicle and nothing not even a clicking at the starter. Battery, starter good. It is the steering column issue that costs some 400 dollars to repair. Here is the repair for 20 bucks.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! These videos were a HUGE help! Just installed the switch and im back driving again! You Rock Bro. Beer well deserved! Hahaha. Jeep on brother!
Why didn't you just change the $17.00 ignition switch. Remove the column covers, unscrew the turn signal / wiper switches with a #20 torqx bit. There is 1 #10 security rorqx bit that holds the switch to the colum. After the #10 is removed just pull on the switch. Replace with a BWD brand part # CS812.... problem solved with out hacking up your harness.
Rubbish !!! - i had this problem exactly --- its the "actuator pin" which is a problem on a TJ, - when you turn the key the "actuator pin" turns the starter switch it breaks after a few years 23 in my case - it runs between the key cylinder and the starter switch - only costs $30 and is easy to change over - hope this helps

Great videos on this issue
Tried it and worked great.
Boooooooyaaaaaaaa!!!
I fixed it with a new actuator pin assembly ($40), but I thank you for the diagnostic!
what's the name/ part number of the specific plastic part in the column that goes bad as you mentioned in the vid @louis hachey?
have a 2004 jeep liberty sport won't en start but both tail light and turning were blinking open tail gate and doors close them and it started
Saved my ass! worked like a charm. thanks.
I’m having the same problem but when I remove my starter relay and plug it back in it starts up
THANK YOU! Worked on my 2001.
you have to settle down, jumping all over the place, this didn't help hahaha
So just replace the switch parts. Done? TJ is known for having bad clock springs too, no no horn and airbag. Love my TJ though.
