I appreciate videos like this where you have a rarely seen problem but reminds you to really pay attention to what you are seeing compared to the diagrams. Also the final testing to see what the voltages should be is invaluable. Thank you for another great video.

This just started happening to me today after I put my doors back on, I also have an after market remote start that was on there when I bought it, 2014 Rubicon. Guess I'll be pulling start apart soon. Great video. Thank you.

Hindsight being 20/20... it is logical that the aftermarket remote start might need to have some way, either with semiconductor logic or a physical connection, to "trick" the car into thinking that there was a key in the ignition - otherwise it probably wouldn't be able to start the car when the start function is called from its remote. It may very well be that whatever device or logic that the little remote start module used to trick the car, might have gotten stuck in the activated position - leading the car to think the key is always present. Nice job spotting the mismatch between the wiring diagrams and what's physically present, saved a ton of time checking different connections and whatnot. Good stuff!

Thanks for showing the good known voltages at the end. I am sure it will come in handy when diagnosing good vs bad. Although I noticed AC voltage (may have been a mistake?) - I get some client asking me to install remote starters - Hate to deal with them, I never done them. How hard is it to install them? And what brank you recommend? Once again thanks for posting these videos very informative. 👍👍

I need to get rid of this annoying chime. Your video is the first I've seen opened Ignition switch (Mopar nr is: 4685 719AB). This sensor is responsible for resistance change for key in/out but it is in line with other resistors for turned key sensing. Have You tried (on any jeep) to disable the key-in chime while open driver door? I guess the right resistance must be simulated...
@autodiagyt6 ай бұрын
I’m guessing you want it disabled because you have your doors removed?
@-BlackDeath-6 ай бұрын
@@autodiagytI put my anwserearlier, but it vanished... anyway.... no. I have XH/XK. And the reason i I often leave my driver doors ajar with key in ignition. I looked into XH manual and I know how the Ignition Switch is constructed in a principle. I am still thinking how to make chime go away... I already looked to several sollutions, but none of them is OK for me. I do not want to cut the wire (unplug it) from the door actuator, I do not want to disable the chime speaker on the back of the cluster. I am close to just disassembling the ignition housing and making the pin shorter, so it wouldn't engage the resistance. There is a trick though: the equivalent resistance of key in/out is paralel to resistance of the position of the switch Off/start/acc/run/lock. So diabling it it may cause a problem to signal reciever: the steering control module, to read the key position correctly and by that communicating correctly with Front Control module....

@@AFatherToTheFatherless it is irrelevant if there is no difference between the vehicles. It’s also irrelevant to mention specifics about a vehicle if the system in question is common among several different modules. This same ignition switch is used in many dodge and Chrysler vehicles. This fault could happen to any of them. My videos are never about this specific vehicle has this issue and here is the fix. It’s for technicians to see a thought process. My channel isn’t about repairing vehicles, it’s how to troubleshoot problems. I could do every video without giving any vehicle information and it will still be valuable to the audience it’s intended for.
