I am working on a 96 cherokee that I replaced the ignition switch on a while back. Since I put the switch on it has had an issue not starting sometimes when you turn the key the starter won't crank and sometimes it will. The neutral safety switch is jumped so that's not the issue. Today it started dying like you turned the key off and it won't restart. Also sometimes when you turn the key on the buzzer works and sometimes it doesn't. Could the new ignition switch be bad or could it be something else.

 

actually having this same problem now i thought the nss was going bad but mine is not jumoed dont know how to do that

 

Wheres switch behind key or down on column ?

 

Yes, the new ignition switch could be bad. It could also be the connector.

What caused the prior switch to need replacing? (just asking in case it helps answer anything).
