Thank you for posting this no nonsense video. I have a tip for anyone watching about how to thread the new NSS cable and harness through. I didn't use a string/tape/coat hanger (I see no possible way of pulling the new wiring harness through where the wiring goes as the opening is not big enough there. All I did was... Pay close attention to how the original NSS wiring was positioned. Then I took out the Old NSS. Then I held the NEW NSS wiring harness from above while letting the NSS housing drop down from above through the larger opening area near where it will be (not exactly where the wiring goes trough), while still holding the wiring harness from above (like you are fishing it down!). THEN FLOSS THE NEW NSS WIRING INTO POSITION by firmly dragging it into place, past the throttle cable which is also down there, then zip tie it back to the wires of other parts that the original NSS was zip tied to, above the transmission.

@eddelossantos3083 2 года назад

@jillianmathis3275 3 года назад

I have been being told different reasons for my Jeep Cherokee having problems. All I knew were wrong. This confirms that I do not need my transmission ripped apart or a new starter that was replaced already. Thank you for this. I now have information to get it fixed correctly.

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 3 года назад

@tesscaline 5 лет назад

Thanks so much for this video. It's far more easy to follow than the shop manual, or any of the text explanations on the forums I follow. I've been having trouble with my NSS for years, and hadn't replaced it because of the cost. Now I can do it myself and hopefully solve my reverse light problem (they don't always come on, yikes!)!

@doubletake2448 6 лет назад

Thanks so much for the tutorial. The NSS on my '93 Cherokee Sport just failed. I've actually been starting the motor in neutral the last few weeks which is a sign of impending failure.

@whocares5188 6 лет назад

D Carlson so yours starts fine in neutral?

@doubletake2448 6 лет назад

I noticed that my NSS began to fail when my back up lights would not activate. Eventually, my jeep would not start while in park, and then after a while, I could only start my jeep in neutral. This was clear evidence of the switch was slowly failing.

@whocares5188 6 лет назад

D Carlson my back up lights stopped working to. The only difference is mine wont start in neutral. But sometimes my jeep will start perfectly

@johnnyrancher7197 5 лет назад

I ended up breaking it like you did, the part that the nut tightens onto is the only thing still on the transmission. The rest off the nss detatched from it. I can't put the nut on it now, is there anything you suggest to get the remaining pieces off? Would pliers just get it off with enough force?

@curt63084 6 лет назад

So I just busted the part that you were taking about get stuck mainly on the old part. Any suggestions on how to get that piece off the "arm"?

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 6 лет назад

Curt collins sorry to hear. yeah you got to get it with a couple screwdrivers and a pry bar. I can't really think of any better ways to explain it. You might be able to get a pair of vice grips on there as well. But since it's already broken, bust the whole thing off of their shows just the sleeve left on the shaft

@LittleMikeStarCraft 3 года назад

I think this is whats wrong with mine--- because if I jump the starter with a screwdriver it starts just fine.

@LittleMikeStarCraft 3 года назад

Just got my new piece in the mail, came back for a quick refresher--- and putting it in right after this.

@nathanmccumber8965 Год назад

Was it fix ? I do the something to start mine. I got my jeep for 300 buck it got p705 code I change starter switch nothing but I can turn with screwdriver.

@harvestblades Год назад

And maybe I missed it, but since yours was already off you need to bend out the teeth on that nut before trying to remove it. Well, you don't have to, but it's a hell of a lot easier especially if you are hoping to clean & reinstall which may be what you have to do whike you wait for your new one to be delivered. Also using a mini flat bar may work better than a screw driver as it spreads out the force on that stupid plastic body. Great video btw!

@nickcimino1787 6 лет назад

I have a 96 2wd. Took nss off and tried cleaning it but had no luck starting up. Trying to order a new one but am curious if it matters if in the description of some it says its for 4wd. Would it really effect anything or does it have to be a 2wd drive nss?

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 6 лет назад

Nick Cimino to be honest with you I'm not really sure. I would have to do some research online. If it fits I'd have to guess it would work. Let me know what you come up with I'd be curious to know. Thanks

@nickcimino1787 6 лет назад

It ended up being the ignition switch! Got a new one for 35 bucks from advance and it fired right up. Still glad I had took the time to take the nss off and clean it anyways. Thank you for the feedback!

@whocares5188 6 лет назад

Bro i have a 04 Cherokee and i was having to turn the key to on possession then press the brakes halfway before it would crack no other order. sometimes it would start like any other automatic and just start with no brake. But it wont start with key now. I had to take cover off the starter relay and manually move the arm and it starts right up. Does that sound like NSS ??

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 6 лет назад

That doesn't sound like an NSS off hand. Hard to say without seeing it though. Let me know how you make out

@whocares5188 6 лет назад

NoNonsenseKnowHow i will. But what else could not be telling the starter relay to work? ignition?

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 6 лет назад

@@whocares5188 it could be the NSS, a wiring issue, corroded contacts, a bad relay, bad ignition switch or probably a few other things. But without looking at a wiring diagram it's hard to say offhand. I work on all makes and models so I'm not incredibly familiar with any particular vehicle. Best thing to do would be get a wiring diagram and go from there honestly.

@maximusilive4theking986 5 лет назад

Question, I read on a forum that a NSS can cause the transmission to shift funny, is this true info? It said it caused overdrive not to engage or slip off overdrive, are you aware of this?

@@NoNonsenseKnowHow well the problem I'm having on my 89 is, when I'm cruising on just normal speeds in town, 1st and 2nd shift fine, when it gets to 3rd, the rpms drop lower then they should and the vehicle drags, I accelerate and it's barely gettinspeed , if I let go of the gas pedal and then press it harder then it kicks in just fine I to overdrive and speeds up normal, once I get to 4th gear it does the same thing and sometimes doesn't even let me go past 50mph, not sure what my deal is, I've already done the tps and adjustment.

What exactly does the adjustment on these nss do/adjust

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 4 года назад

If it's not adjusted properly the car may not start when it's in park. Basically there is some wiggle room on the shifter when you're in park. In on the extreme end of both sides of wiggle room it should still start. And it should still start in neutral as well. If all that's good then it's adjusted properly
