My jeep will not start up when you turn the key to on. I already replace the switch. The radio comes on and lights it just want crank up.

Hello,

Have you tried jump starting it? If not and you can get someone to help do so. If vehicle starts take to local parts store and have them check Battery.

You can jumpstart it it wont start with the key. You can start it with the relay switch under the hood.

Also have you checked Fuse #12 (40 amp) in the Power Distribution Box in the engine compartment on Passenger side.
