Question

I purchased a 86 Jeep Wagooner recently and I love it. I used it for work first week then I let it sit for five days and tried to start it and has no power at all. Well I change the battery with a new one. Still no power. I check the cables and I don't see anything wrong. Please Help

Answer

Are there any lights on the dash, and it just does not crank.?

Possible Starter, relay or ignition switch problem. First check to see if you have a constant 12volts to the red wire at the starter terminal and also check to see if you are getting power to the dark green wire at the starter when the ignition is cranked.
