03 TJ no crank no start

[Jeepman23]

I’m having a little bit of trouble with the TJ last night, I’m trying to leave my house however I’m not getting a crank or start, stereo, sub, lights, and air all come on but no start or crank, I tried putting it in N it started up, turnt it back off to make sure I wasn’t just lucky, turns out I was I try and restart no crank no start. All fuses look fine there shouldn’t be a problem there, I recently replaced the ignition due to no start there shouldn’t be a problem there. Anyone know what else I should be check???

Have someone turn the key to crank and check for 12v on the little wire on the starter.

If you get 12v when cranking hit the starter with a hammer.

If you don't put the key to run and jumper the big and little wires and see if it cranks and fires.

Try smacking the starter with a screwdriver while someone is cranking it. If it starts you need a new starter.
