Default ignition accessory position?

Am i supposed to have one? I've got a 99 4.0. There seems to be a spot on my ignition that does nothing... Is there certain fuses I should check? I just noticed it after having it for like 5 months lol

Turn the key back towards you.

I've tried that too, I'm confused on this one. Does someone have a manual on the ignition positions for the newer jeeps? lol

Unless it changed after should be '97, it should be one click forward. Check your fuses, including under the hood.
