    TJ won't start

    There is. I left it because it was a harness going to the fuse box, also. I just put an extra one on. The link going to the starter must have been bad. I replaced the ground going to the block, too, for good measure. And cleaned those other wires on the block and firewall. I had to buy an...

    Oh please!!! Not the PCM. I can't come close to affording that! Do you know how much it is to program one?

    TJ won't start

    A four gauge wire (thick) from the battery post directly to the starter. It's been three days and starting perfect with no apparent problem.

    TJ won't start

    Thanks for replying. But I may have fixed it. Until it won't start. But it's starting strong for now. I hooked a positive cable directly from the battery to the starter and it's working. Maybe you can tell me it that's safe. I left the old positive cable on to go to the fuse box and...

    TJ won't start

    Okay. It will start and run all day turning it on and off. But then, out of nowhere, it won't start. The P codes are saying all four oxygen sensors are out. Will that keep it from starting, though? I know my gas mileage has got so bad I checked underneath for a gas leak. I just had the...

    TJ won't start

    2005 TJ, 4.0 I replaced the starter. Had the battery tested. Good. Cleaned the grounds. Ran a direct negative cable to the block. Ran a direct positive cable to the starter. Put on brass post connectors. Starts sometimes. Single click other times. Out of ideas.

    2005 wrangler 4.0 not starting.

    My 2005 Wranger will run for a few months and out of nowhere it won't start. After a few weeks of messing with it, it magically starts again. Runs a few months and then all of a sudden it won't start. No warning or symptoms. It will turn over but it sounds like no spark. I can smell gas...

    2005 4.0 won't start

    Third time. First time I replaced the fuel pump in the gas tank. It worked. Second time, no spark, no gas, just endless cranking. After sitting for two weeks, it started and ran fine. Until yesterday. Again, endless cranking, no starting.
