What is your question?
I drove it to work in the morning, around 8am. I drove it to a client's office around 11am, it was about a 40 minute drive. I parked when I got there and left around 5pm and my jeep wouldn't start. The radio works, the lights work, it beeps at me when i put the key in, just won't turn. I took it to the dealership and they said it was the ignition switch. So we, my husband and I, went and bought the ignition actuator and the starter switch and replaced both. Saved myself a couple hundred worth of labor but it didn't fix the problem. This is the first time this vehicle has broke down for me, in such a way that I'm immobile. I bought the jeep 1/31/15. It is now 3/28/16. I also have had issues with the abs sensor. The abs, traction control, and esp dash lights have been on basically since I bought it. My hubs bought a code reader and it is not throwing any codes. the check engine light isn't on.
We rented a car hauler to get the car from my clients to my parents. After looking around we decided to take it to the dealership to see if the parts were covered under warranty. This is a warranty the place that financed me required me to purchase with the car. The ignition switch wasn't covered. So we towed it home, went and bought the parts and replaced them.
Ok... 'IF' the actuator pin and the ignition starter switch were properly installed (?)..and all other basic checks have been performed.. But the starter will not engage when key is turned to 'start'.. Suspect neutral safety switch if auto trans... It's also possible the starter itself is the culprit, can be tested.
We checked the starter. The starter is fine. Thanks for the advise. I guess I'll check and see if that is covered under the warranty. If not, that will be tomorrow's project.
