I'm going to give it one last go round before I part this thing out. This is my nightmare wired Renix XJ I posted about previously. Now that I am ready to try and start it again I'm having yet another issue. What I've checked so far:
-Battery Good
-Starter Good
-Fusible links Good
-Ground Good
I'm not really sure how to check the relay as the PO has some really shady wiring going on. He had the starter wired to a push button which worked when I first got the jeep but now there is nothing not even a starter click. I'm getting power inside to the lights etc but nothing else. I haven't done anything with the wiring other than clean out plugs and cover his splices with shrink tube instead of tape. I'm giving it two more days or so before I put it here and on CL for parts for a couple weeks then tow it to the junkyard.
