Default 94 wont start

My son in-law has a 94 (same as mine) and it will not even try to crank over. We put a Brand New starter in and it does the same thing. We jumped the solenoid and it starts right up. The starter was tried in another jeep and works fine...I'm at a loss here so any help would be appreciated...Tj

Yeah, I can't believe it Joe. I'm totally out of guesses here, unless it's a bad ignition switch, or bad/dirty connector. Sorry.

If it is a auto tranny try starting it in neutral moove the shifter around when trying to start it you might have a neutral/safety switch going bad or out of whack. also check the connector at the tranny.
