Little help here! So this morning I jump in the jeep to go to work - turn the key - and it acts like dead battery. No clicking, but a half turn and then nada... I go get the neighbor for a jump start, and then go to roll the jeep down the driveway to get access for the jump. Turn the key to put it in gear, and it starts right up. WTF? Is there a starter relay going bad, or the starter itself? Any ideas???

Default No start

Tough call on the no start, sounds like possibly a bad connection at the battery or the starter. otherwise an electrical gremlin got in there, and those are a "B" to track down. May want to get the battery checked just to be sure.

Sounds like It's your sensor switch that tells the computer your in park before the starter will kick over. It's mounted right in front of your shifter if it's an auto or under the dog house if manual.

Yeah but we have seen you get towed or winched by other jeeps.

So I guess the moral is just don't go out alone.
