REMOVE IGNITION SWITCH 1976 JEEP CJ5 - 1983 Jeep CJ5

should be a small pin hole in the face of the ignition switch itself, straighten out a paper clip and use it to push into this hole it will release the switch to come out, may have to have key in and turned to accessory position to let it come out

what page and step did you, get stuck , in the FSM.
no book?
cant log into alldata.com and see it?
most cars, remove steering wheel, is first (new cars its, defeat air bags or die)
pit falls. those pesky antithieft tamper proof screws hold the switch in place?
or cant get the plastic covers off (look down under then up)

here are some points to check.fuel tank empty,fault in the fuel injection system,fuel pump faulty,excessive on or to ignition components, worn faulty or incorrect gap on sparkplugs broken loose or disconnected wires at the ignition coil

should be able to, you can get a new keyswitch at NAPA or other parts store.

Dave , I have one in my cj5. The info I got on it was that it was out of a Cadillac Fleetwood from 69-1976. I was able to get a switch from Rock auto for it.It is basicly the same as any other GM column. They were also use in other gm models in those years. Larry [email protected]

Most likely the dimmer switch is bad. It's a very common Jeep problem. If that's not it I would check the grounds to make sure they are good.

need a special tool to remove the locking plate behind steering wheel then pull turn signal switch back a little then remove screw that keeps lock cylinder in place

Willys Overland merged with Kaiser and became Kaiser Jeep Corporation in 1963; AM Motors Corporation bought Kaiser in 1970. There is some interesting info at willysoverland.com

With the engine off, Look down into the carburetor and move the throttle. If you don't see a healthy squirt of fuel. the accelerator pump has failed. The carb may also have deposits in the fuel passageways and may need an overhaul including a good soak in carb cleaning solution.

I' have seen 2 headlights go out at the same time. Pull the plag on one light and see if have 12 volts with the switch on. If you have voltage then your headlight is bad. If you do not have voltage then there could be a bad switch or wiring problem.
