1993 Jeep YJ 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual 140000 miles
I just got my 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ. It worked perfectly fine for about two weeks now, but every so often the battery would seem weak when starting up. Took awhile for it to roar to life.
Then this morning, i went to start it, and it just clicked. It didnt even try to turn over. I tried it several times then gave up. I charged the battery all afternoon so it was at 100%. still nothing. I then tried to jump it with another truck. Still nothing. So the battery had enough juice to start, but something else was preventing it from doing it. i then cleaned the heads of the battery so that they were sparkiling clean. tried again. once the motor turned over, but that was the only action. again tried to jump start it, it still only clicked.
I need a solution to this problem becuase i would really like to drive my new jeep that i just spent all my money on. Please help, thank you |

Load test the battery if okay -the problem could be the starter, starter relay, clutch switch and ignition switch |

replaced the starter, battery is fine, clutch should be good. just bought a new ignition switch and hopefully that works. im using a remote starter right now so if its not the ignition switch then its probably some faulty wiriing |

if that doesnt work check the main ground cable and any other ground cables for tightness. while you are in the check and tighten any of the alternator cables |
