Re: TJ doesnt start with a key but does with...
I start it with the remote, then when I get in, I turn my key over to kick
it out of "remote start" mode as you have to do with remote starters.
My Jeep is a 1998, I dont have an encoded key nor a Sentury key system.
Most are saying it's my alarm, so I am going to have it checked out by the
shop that installed it 6 years ago. If they find nothing then I think I
might start with my ignition switch.
Thanks for your advise guys...
