Used to live in Greer and work at the Hyatt Regency in Greenville over 20 years ago. Visited recently, man that downtown area has changed! Welcome to TN

Intermittent no crank this time around.....but I'm sure that sensor is in my future as well. Taking a break from it today other than maybe shopping around online for cheapest ignition switch I can find. I took the old one apart as best I could and cleaned, adjusted and fiddled with the contacts as best I could then reinstalled. No luck. pretty convinced it's that part or the PITA to change keyed part and shaft.

Update.... Pulled the ignition switch, plastic box on left side of steering column opposite of ignition key. I jumped two random holes in the harness I disconnected and it cranked! Thinking its that plastic box ignition switch wore out or the the keyed part of the ignition not activating the switch properly. The keyed part has a shaft and plactic pin the turns and pushes where it fits into the ignition switch. Ignition switch is a $30 part. Ill try that first......Actually 2nd as I replaced neutral safety switch already. Reminds me of my Army parts changer days... Seems like sometimes we kept changing parts till it fixed the problem. Uncle Sam has deep pockets though.

That's what I'm starting to find out. Probably going to sell eventually but easier to sell if people dont have to get under hood to start it.

But if I have key in on position I can start it by jumper wire at fuse box....key has to be on. I guess key all the way clockwise to start is a different position than on/run though. A possibility I guess. That fuse/relay I pull to use the jumper wire...is that a fail or work part or do they get glitchy sometimes? I switched it out with another one that was from the same fuse box and the same age but maybe I should try a new one?

Even youtube can't help me on this one, any 04 Cherokee owners solved this issue?? I inherited an 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee 6cyl automatic with 50,000 miles. It has intermitent no crank problems. Replaced the Neutral safety switch that was a screw in plug thing with a plunger and three terminals, no help. Has a new fully charged battery. When problem occurs I can put the ignition key to on and pull a fuse/relay at the fusebox and touch a jumper wire there to start. So its not the starter because that works every time. About to rig some sort of start button from fuse box to cab soon and call it done! Any Ideas? I'm no mechanic but was a pretty good parts changer in the Army at one time.

Don’t buy conversion kits of the web.

When I first glanced at this post I thought it was an ATF sting like chucktshoes mentioned. I wonder why like prostitution stings, the ATF hasn't tried more sting operations? Seems like something the antigunners would be pushing for. -
Prayers for an easy and peaceful passing.

It sure looks much better than all the canned anti gun letters I used to get from my representatives in Oregon when I used to live there. Keep writing! I'm sure one of her interns has taken note, extracted your concerns from your correspondence and added that data to a graph or pie chart that she reads once a week or so. As cold as that sounds, don't be discouraged. No matter how she digests the information the important thing is she actually hears and sees that we are paying attention. You got me motivated anyway!

Stupid auto correct. I meant to write ND, No ND.... I could disable it but then my posts would be really bad on the spelling.

This guy lost it when it fell from his waist band while intoxicated. Good job on whoever found it and safely gave it to staff as it was loaded. No ND here just NC. Negligent Carry!

2-year-old Johnson County girl struck by stray bullet
OLDNEWBIE replied to Garufa's topic in General Chat
"Ignorance and carelessness are considered the two leading causes in accidents," Potter said. "If you're going to be carrying a gun, shooting a gun, you need to know all you can about the safety rules and location of the shooting." Heart breaking tragedy for the girl and her family. Not only that but stupidity like this helps bolster the anti-gun crowd's mantra that guns are not safe anywhere anytime. -
Just wondering is it going to be less expensive and quicker to obtain soon.

I've been dragging my feet getting a TN permit, I wonder should I wait a bit now and see what happens?
