Does the remote starter system have a starter kill/anti-grind relay? If so, that could be bad or partially disconnected. What year is your XJ?

can you put the key in run position and then jump your starter with a screwdriver? i don't really know what this would accomplish... I just know my neighbors old car's key didn't turn it on so he ran a couple wires from the starter to the top of the hood to a switch and started it by popping his hood every time.... **** that was ghetto... haha
