2016 Manual Transmission very intermittent no start

[Bobzilla71]

My Jeep has a very hard to find " No Start Problem " I've Changed the Ignition Switch, Battery, Tightened connections Starter is good.

When it happens, I turn the key and nothing, gauges come on with no click. Wait for a bit try key a few times then it will go.

But like I said its only once in awhile, no pattern very intermittent.

Any ideas?

Agree with the above, check the safety switch at the clutch.

The clutch safety switch might just need a couple thread adjustment.
