What a cheap and silly design for the locking cylinder... mine did the same thing and left me stranded a ways from home late last night. But Your video saved me a whole BUNCH of hassle, time, and headache. It's already fixed this morning thanks to you! Thanks!

That broken "hat" that engages the ignition switch on the end is a common break on 95-96 XJs. If you can get the "Hat" off you can swap the lock cylinder itself, so you can keep your original key, but it's a PITA to get that hat off the end without breaking things apart. Certainly a lot easier ot use the new key along with your old one, just more inconvenient.

Someone on the XJ Preservation Society FB page told me the same thing. It is a pain to use two keys, but it has worked OK. Had to do this in the 99, and it was so easy - keyed right to existing.

Crank but no start could be a lot of things. Hope you can figure it out!

So I have a 1996 jeep Cherokee and it wants to start without a key in the ignition I replaced the starter and have the same issue do you thinking doing this would fix it

If it’s starting without the key, it seems like the ignition lock cylinder would be the problem. Hate to tell you to throw parts at it, but may be worth a shot.

So wasn’t the ignition switch . Was the key cylinder that caused failure ??
@swatscorner

Yes. That’s correct

If any of you are stuck/stranded because of this problem remove the lock cylinder and use needle nose to crank your Jeep for the time being.

I took this off but can't remove the cylinder it's was locked,but does this part come with a new cylinder?I'm no mechanic,just going off utube.
@swatscorner

Yes, part came with new cylinder. It was super easy to do. Wish they made them for the pre 97. I have to use two keys on one of my 1996s.

That halo light is supposed to stay on at all times??
@swatscorner
@swatscorner Год назад
I think it stays on temporarily and fades out.
@jeepinbanditrider
@jeepinbanditrider Год назад
I forget the time frame but it comes on anytime a door is opened then fades out after a bit.
