CONSTANT TENSION CLAMPS.
CAUTION: A number or letter is stamped into the
tongue of constant tension clamps (Fig. 28). If re-
placement is necessary, use only an original equip-
ment clamp with matching number or letter.

IGNITION SWITCHÐXJ MODELS
IGNITION SWITCH AND KEY CYLINDER SERVICE
The ignition switch is located on the steering col-
umn. The Key-In-Switch and Halo Light are integral
with the ignition switch. Refer to Group 8U for Key-
In-Switch and Halo Light diagnosis for XJ models.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring for ignition switch wir-
ing circuits.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable from battery.
(2) If vehicle has a tilt column, remove tilt lever by
turning it counterclockwise.
(3) Remove upper and lower covers from steering
column (Fig. 1).
(4) Remove ignition switch mounting screws. Use
tamper proof torx bit Snap-on TTXR20A2 or equiva-
lent to remove the screws (Fig. 2 or 3).
(5) Gently pull switch away from column. Release
connector locks on 7-terminal wiring connector, then
remove connector from ignition switch.
(6) Release connector lock on 4-terminal connector,
then remove connector from ignition switch (Fig. 4).
(7) To remove key cylinder from ignition switch:
(a) Insert key in ignition switch. Turn key to
LOCK position. Using a TTXR20A2 or equivalent
torx bit, remove key cylinder retaining screw and
bracket (Fig. 5 or 6).
(b) Rotate key clockwise to the OFF position.
Key cylinder will unseat from ignition switch (Fig.
7). When key cylinder is unseated, it will be ap-proximately 1/8 inch away from ignition switch
halo light ring.Do not attempt to remove key
cylinder at this time.
(c) With key cylinder in unseated position, rotate
key counterclockwise to the lock position and re-
move key.
(d) Remove key cylinder from ignition switch
(Fig. 8).

INSTALLATION
(1) Connect electrical connectors to ignition switch.
Make sure that switch locking tabs are fully seated
in wiring connectors.
(2) Before attaching ignition switch to a tilt steer-
ing column, the transmission shifter must be in Park
position. The park lock dowel pin and column lock
flag must also be properly indexed before installing
switch (Fig. 9).
(a) Place transmission shifter in PARK position.
(b) Place ignition switch in lock position. The
switch is in the lock position when column lock flag
is parallel to ignition switch terminals (Fig. 9).
(c) Position ignition switch park lock dowel pin
so it will engage steering column park lock slider
linkage (Fig. 10).(d) Apply a light coating of grease to column lock
flag and park lock dowel pin.
(3) Place ignition switch against lock housing open-
ing on steering column. Ensure that ignition switch
park lock dowel pin enters slot in park lock slider
linkage in steering column.
(4) Install retaining bracket and ignition switch
mounting screws. Tighten screws to 36.5 Nzm (2664
in. lbs.) torque.
(5) Install ignition lock cylinder:

(a) With lock cylinder and ignition switch in
Lock position, insert lock cylinder into ignition
switch until it bottoms.(b) Insert ignition key into lock cylinder. While
gently pushing lock cylinder in toward ignition
switch, rotate ignition key to end of travel.
(6) Install retaining screw into bracket and lock
cylinder. Tighten screw to 36.5 Nzm (2664 in. lbs.)

to2Nzm (17 in. lbs.) torque.
(8) If vehicle is equipped with a tilt steering col-
umn, install tilt lever.
(9) Connect negative cable to battery.
(10) Check for proper operation of halo light, shift
lock (if applicable), and column lock. Also check for
proper operation of ignition switch accessory, lock,
off, run, and start positions.

IGNITION SWITCHÐYJ MODELS
GENERAL INFORMATION
This section will cover the electrical portion
of the ignition switch. To service the mechani-
cal ignition key switch, refer to Group 19,
Steering.
Refer to Group 8W, Wiring for ignition switch wir-
ing circuits.
The ignition switch is mounted under the instru-
ment panel on the lower section of the steering col-
umn. The headlamp dimmer switch is mounted
beside the ignition switch (Fig. 11). Both of these
switches (ignition and dimmer) share the same
mounting screws.
The switch is connected to the ignition key lock as-
sembly by a remote actuator rod. This remote actua-
tor rod fits into an access hole on the bottom of the
ignition switch (Fig. 12).
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect the negative battery cable at the
battery.
(2) Remove the windshield wiper intermittent con-
trol module and its bracket (if equipped).
(3) Place the ignition key lock in ACCESSORY po-
sition.
(4) Remove the two headlamp dimmer switch at-
taching nuts. Lift the switch from steering column
while disengaging actuator rod.
Before removing dimmer switch, tape the two
remote control actuator rods (ignition switchand dimmer) to the steering column. This will
prevent accidental disengagement from the up-
per part of the steering column.
(5) Remove the ignition switch-to-steering column
attaching screws.
(6) Disengage the ignition switch from the remote
actuator rod by lifting straight up. Remove switch
from steering column.
(7) Remove wiring from switch as follows:
Two electrical connectors are used to connect all
wiring to the ignition switch. One of the connectors is
installed (interlocked) over the top of the other con-
nector. Remove wiring from switch by disconnecting
the (black) harness connector first and then the other
connector. Remove the switch from the vehicle.
SWITCH TESTING
To test the ignition switch circuity and continuity,
proceed as follows. Place the slide bar (on the igni-
tion switch) (Fig. 12) into the detent position to be
tested. An ohmmeter or continuity light may be used
to check switch continuity. Refer to the Ignition
Switch Continuity Tests chart for continuity tests.
Refer to (Fig. 13) for the lettered/numbered terminal
positions.All wiring must be disconnected from
the ignition switch before performing any con-
tinuity testing.
There are five positions on the ignition switch. The
switch positions (in order) are: ACCESSORY, OFF-
LOCK, OFF, ON AND START (Figs. 14 or 15). Each
position has a detent stop (except START), which isFig. 11 Ignition Switch/Headlamp Dimmer SwitchÐ
