96 no start problem
alright well i'm new to the forum but soo far seems pretty sweet. but i have a problem. bought a cherokee last month with 99,000 miles on it and you could start the thing when u had it in first gear with the clutch no pushed down or just with the clutch not pushed down in nuetral. So i got in it one day like 5 mins after i shut it off to go into the parts store and it wouldn't start. all the lights and dingers worked but when u turned the key it just didnt' do anything like when u try to start a vehicle with the clutch not pushed down... sooo any ideas on mayb what it could be? is there a clutch safety switch on these that may be the problem? any help would be great thanks for reading.
