I was using my jeep this morning no problem at all then I parked it for about 2 hours and went to go drive it again but when I turned the key it shows I have power but web I fully try to turn it over my starter won't even engage AT ALL! Thankfully I live on a hill and have a 6speed so I popped the clutch and was on my way I drive for about 35 min turned my car over and attempted to start it again but again the starter won't engage at all no click, winding, ZERO like as if I had not even had a battery in the car My batt in new and has a full charge What could this be ? |

Starter solenoid or starter motor itself. |

I got under my jeep this morning used a screw driver to get the starter to crank over it cranks over just fine but won't start ... I here my fuel pump so it's not that the only thing I can think of is maybe the ignition? |

sounds like your ign switch, there's a few 5 cent plastic doodas inside the ign switch, try turning the steering wheel left and right while holding the ign switch to the 'start' position and see if it cranks or trys to, if so, it's an issue in the column related to the switch |

This deff seems like the most plausible explanation .... If this happens to be the problem is this easy so that that average wrench turner like myself can fix or am I going to get banged out by the dealer for this also if anyone has had this problem any ball park $ on the repair? Thanks a ton to everyone -Marco |

the actuators like 40 bucks, electrical component of the switch is like 25, neutral safety switch is about 35 it's going to depend on what and how much you end up replacing before you find the issue, and it may not be a physical component, it may be a break in a wire etc at some point you'll narrow it down to a location or range of components and eventually figure out specifically what the issue is it's just a pita considering a good portion of what may cause the issue is either under the shifter console or inside the steering column |

Had this problem before... I put the key in an awkward way and turned it I broke something (maybe those plastic doodas as mentioned) even though it turned on. When I went to the gas station after that, it wouldn't crank and had to get it towed after I turned her off to pump gas. Long story short, needed to have my steering column replaced because the part that was broken wasn't an individual part. Thankfully my buddy that worked for a dealership hooked me up to avoid the stealership's cost. |

I am having this problem. I was out driving stopped at a house came out and could not get it started. First thought was battery but I had all the power I needed. Then I got the shift lever unstuck and was able to shift to neutral. Still not able to start I had a buddy short the starter relay and boom started right up. It appears that the switch in mine is bad. The interlock switch or something. How do I go about fixing this or replacing it. I can not find very much about it other than it has happened to a lot of people. 05 CRD Auto Trans |

Try what you did again, but in Park this time and see what happens. Could be though that it'll still start since physically jumping the connection on 2 wires trumps safety features lol. |
