I am working on a 83 cj for a guy, it will not start with key, no lights will come on. When i jump across the starter relay it will run and lights come on. HOw can i test ignition switch for power?

I'm not too familiar with that year ignition switch... I assume you'll need to dismantle the column though...

I didnt look under the dash real close, but thats what i am thinking, going to see if i can find a hot wire runing up there somewhere.
 
Is there a fuse for the ignition system? Does anything powerwise on the jeep work at all?
 
Fixed it. i had a wire on the wrong side of the stater solinoid. everything was apart when i started working on it lol.
