What's going on fellas? I had stock 90 cherokee lardeo a few years ago but it was my daily so I didn't want to do anything with it in case something broke. I finally broke down and bought another cherokee today, 90 laredo as well. Picked it up for 1600, has a few issues nothing I can't fix except for one... The power seems to always stay on, not sure if has to do with the ignition assembly or a bad relay maybe? It's able to start without a key so I'm not sure if that helps any... I was lurking around earlier and saw the posts about just installing a kill switch but how hard would it be to replace the ignition assembly (if thats the issue)? Anyways like I said, new to the forum but not the Jeep world. Going to be doing some upgrades in the next few months (lift/tires/rack etc etc)

Thanks!
Jake

Ignition assembly replacement looked pretty easy when I watched a locksmith do mine...

I was driving it around earlier today and it was actually kind of nice not having to reach for the keys and fumble around with them, so I might just end up installing a kill switch some where. I've only had the thing for two days so I'm still fumbling around with a bunch of ideas...

If you rig up a push button start you'd get a lot of props.
