Driving on and off throughout the day stopping at places no problems park at home go to put the jeep in the garage Kranks dies transmission of feels loose as well as it’s not turning over no crank no start any ideas?

Last week my TJ had a tough time turning over. I had a slow crank before it finally turned. Drove to a friend’s house and shortly after tried to start it but it won’t start. Checked the battery voltage and cleaned the terminals. Voltage was good but my reader said bad alternator. Changed the...

Hey yall, I'm new to the site and I'm having trouble with my jeep starting. It's a 2000 Jeep Wrangler 4.0. I read through a few of the treads regarding starting issues but didn't really see this specific issue. It ran yesterday just fine, but when I cranked it today it would just keep turning...

HI everyone. My 2000 TJ, Old Yeller, has been running like a clock since I got it 3 years ago. I went away on a trip, and it sat for 2 months (in the garage). When I came back, I took it out for a drive because I missed my pal. Started up perfectly, drove it about 5 miles, and... it...

Whenever I try to start my '97 wrangler there will be clicking sounds and it will not start. Previously the check engine light had been on due to needing a new Crankshaft position sensor, I replaced the sensor and the problem is still persisting. I have also tried jump-starting it. Ideas on what...

My 00' daily driven's check engine light came on and we disconnected the negative battery terminal, and the aftermarket alarm system started going off everytime the car would start. Then disconnected the alarm since it wouldn't start and now the jeep won't start at all. We just put a new battery...

Hey guys, I finally bought my dream car — a Jeep Wrangler TJ! Test drove it twice then drove it for 2 days fine, but now it won't start. The details: I insert the key, turn it on, and it makes 1 "click" sound and nothing happens. Yes, the battery is good and I've tried to jump it 5 times just...

Hey I just did something to make my jeep not crank. I took my battery cables off and topped the water off in the battery then put about an hour charge on it. then i hooked it all back up tightened the leads back up and went to start the jeep. WELL all it will do is click or tick real fast. it...

I have seen many posts on this board with people incorrectly diagnosing starting issues, or giving advice that requires a lot more wrench turning and guess work than necessary. I figured I could make a little diagnostic write up to better inform people about how to test the system, and how it...
