I parked my jeep for the winter and this spring i tried starting it up, turn and the and nothing. all the lights work, guages work, but it wont crank, no noises, nothing, tried dropping it into neutral, still nothing. any ideas??
Starter motor jammed/bad connection
SOURCE: 1996 Jeep Cherokee intermittently only starts in Neutral
Neutral Saftey Switch located on top of your transmission. Costly to replace but often can be taken off and cleaned.
Testimonial: "After doing a little research I thought that might be the problem. What would be used to clean it?"
SOURCE: jeep will crank but wont start also fuel guage not working
Will it try to start if you spray some carb cleaner in the throttle body? If so you need to check fuel pressure and if low, power to the fuel pump while cranking, the gauge not working could be a seperate issue. Could it be that the car is out of gas since the gauge doesn't work? Just asking. If so you may just need a sending unit. If you end up needing a fuel pump, you'll get a sender with it. I've never seen a sender and a pump go out at the exact same time, the use two different circuit's. The ECM really doesn't have any thing to do with the fuel gauge on this car.

Try this first. With one of you under the car whack the starter with a hammer as the other of you turns the key t the start position and holds it there. No wimpy whacks here give it one or two good ones. If it is a bad starter it may start this way. If it does, a new starter motor is in your future. Very easy to change on a Jeep. If it doesn't work let me know and we will go further.

Try putting the car in neutral and starting. If its a manual trans it might be the clutch pedal safety switch or it may be something as simple as a loose battery connection.
