    Just a stab in the dark.
    Yea most of them do its like a nutral safety switch (on an Autobox) however it would not be cranking if it was this...

      Ok couldnt swap the cam sensor on the dissy as the plugs are different to the one from the XJ. It started once today, but failed again soon after.

      Seems weird that its intermittant. Im outta ideas for the moment.

        From the limited knowledge that I have.....

        The symptoms you said the TJ had sound like it is the ECU.

        You reckon that it was running funny a while back and you changed the throttle body.
        The Guages don't work, or sometimes do.
        The car starts but then dies...

        These all seem to follow what others have described happening just before their ECU died.

        I searched some jeep forums and it looks pretty common.....unfortunately.

          And people laugh at me when I mention the days when you only needed to clean the points or blow out the jets on the carby.

          Have you got an FSM for reference, Jimmy ?

          Hope you get it sorted soon - mind you, it is a better excuse than Azas for not Jeeping this long weekend.
          I hate watching simplicity and reliability being ruined by bureaucracy and technology.

              If it started the on board diagnostics will have started working. Try the key trick and see if it has any new codes.
