    2001 TJ Starter Problem

    It turns out that if I put a fuse into fuse block #20 the clutch pedal position switch is bypassed.This is what the wiring diagram shows - sort of.

    2001 TJ Starter Problem

    I found the location for the starter relay in the fuse block. Position 20 is labeled as "AUTO TRANS" and there is no fuse in that position. According to the wiring diagram it must be either the clutch pedal position switch or the ignition switch.

    2001 TJ Starter Problem

    Thank you for your reply , the service manual, and some places to check voltage measurrements from the wiring diagram. I did get voltage measurement between B3 and B5 in the "no start engine compartment hot " condition. The first measurement (with key turned to start position/clutch pedal in) by...

    2001 TJ Starter Problem

    2001 TJ Starter Problem

    2001 TJ wheel offset

    OK - I just checked. There are 1" spacers. I think that means the answer is smaller tires. Thanks to all!

    Are you saying they should already be spacers installed? I’m pretty sure the axles are TJ.

    2001 TJ wheel offset

    I have a 2001 TJ. The previous owner put in a 3 inch lift with 285 70 17 wheels. They are stock Rubicon wheels. The tires rub on the upper control arm in a lock lock turn. I would like the best way to fix this. Is it smaller tires or can I put in an offset spacer to push the wheels a little...

    Wandering TJ

    I measured tow in as best I could with the tape measure. It appears to be somewhere around zero to possibly a quarter of an inch maybe even an eighth of an inch. I measured the pinion angle and it measures between 2° and 3°. The driveshaft angle appears to be around 4° or 5°. What does infer...
