Hi all,
I am new to the forum and could really use some help.


I have 95 ZJ with a 318 V8.


When I turn the key 1 of 2 things happen, it either sounds like the battery is dead and I can here a clicking noise as if the starter is trying but cant get enough juice or nothing happens. to get around this I have been removing the positive battery cable for about 10 sec and then restarting and then the engine starts up fine. I thought it was the security system but I am not sure. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 

Welcome to CF!

I would suspect the battery cable clamp. It may be stretched and not clamping tight enough even though the bolt is tight. Try replacing the clamp and see what happens.

 

Thanks dave1123, I will try that and see what happens.
