this is on my 97 XJ. I posted in here a couple months ago looking for wiring help; I wound up going to a yard and replacing the engine harness and computer; no good; I think my problem is in the rest of the underhood harness; I know it will be a major PITA to change. problem is, I was told...

a 94 will be an RH trans NOT an RE; they changed the governor from hyd. control ("RH") to electronic solenoid control ("RE") in 96; there was a 93-98 GC in a yard I went to today that had its T case and trans laying on their side next to the truck, with the valve body laying next to it...

Had a phone company tech-buddy come by with a "tone machine" they use for finding shorts in the 2000-wire bundles in those roadside "towers" he thinks I somehow have a short with the fuel pump circuit and that being where my back-feed is coming from; I need to search that PITA schematic to see...

OK will do; As far as the TPS; I have 4.69 V thru the scanner on the TPS WITH THE TPS DISCONNECTED!!! under that condition I should have 0. When I connect the TPS I have 4.92V key on eng off nobody touching the throttle (I have the cable unhooked from the throttle body) so having this...

any insight will be appreciated; I have the Chrysler factory service manual for it but as compared to other factory service manuals this one makes my head spin; I'm back in school now (18 credits worth, 5 classes, 3 of which with "labs" attached so it's like having 8 classes) and just swapped...

crickets.... popcorn... my pot of coffee is empty and this Jeep SITS.

I am not looking at it right now but IIRC it is Feb of 97; when I went to the stealership to ask about a wire harness they said it had to come form a '97 only; there was no "has to be from before______ (date) or after________". as long as it has a 4.0 A/T, 231 T case and from a 97 it's the...

no I have not replaced the TPS; I am getting a 4.59V signal via the scanner and 87% throttle application with nobody in the vehicle (nothing touching the gas pedal) key on engine off and the TPS DISCONNECTED! so having that kind of voltage showing for a sensor that isnt even connected tells me...

A REPLY!! thanks... lots of crickets lately.... I'm out of popcorn and I'm not a coffee drinker (Coke Pepsi or RC and no diet version, either!!) All kidding aside I thought I put that in my initial post; the symptoms; some test results, and such; it's after 11 PM 6AM will be here way too...

Screaming UNCLE for now; the insurance is off the Cherokee, it is parked in the garage (mine; I could not afford to spend $80+/hour if I wanted to, on disability) until I can get my head to stop spinning long enough to become un-confused so i can hit it again witha clear mind and start over...

I don't see any fusable links (I know what they are have been bitten by them before) I believe that they went away from them when they went to the dual fusebox one in the cabin and one under the hood; I have a replacement wire harness on there. I have been checking everything (that I could...

I'm drowning and gettin tired of A) my wife complaining about having to drive a vehicle with a Clutch pedal; (ie, my 97 TJ) while I try to figure out her XJ headache and B) not being able to drive the TJ, because she has it!!!! and also why I still have 2 CARBUETED vehicles hanging around...

this is on my wife's XJ; been down over a month; It started running erratically; trans not shifting right; high idle; surging; I have had a few codes pop up, mostly PO0123 high TPS; but have had TPS does not agree w/MAP, at times. I am showing a MAP voltage of 4,69 WITH TPS DISCONNECTED it...

ooh; I dunno now; I love this cherokee, 2nd one i've had; ( my then-16-yo kid rolled and totaled the 01 we had) but I've found a few things taht make me not so sure about "this" one; I bought it in a lil it of a hurry mode as my wife needed something to drive after the kid's wreck, between...

97 XJ. Not really interested in junkyard ones. I they have the wheels off and them propped up so I couldnt tell if they are any good. I DON'T like doing anything over again. So i am looking at new. I know you guys don't wanna hear this but I'm looking at stock but heavier duty replacements this...

MICHELIN, BFG, or nothing.

I had this happen on a 79 Dodge 1/2 ton with a Slant 6 and 3 on the tree. :roll: My mistake was loaning the truck to a "buddy". He brought me the truck back and handed me the clutch pedal w/ the keys. I pulled it apart and it had broke right at the factory weld; this was before I had my own...

throw that haynes book in teh garbage. thats about what its worth; is this piece that moves about 8-10" long and thick heavy cast iron? That is the pitman arm. If it moves side to side, then yeah the box is shot; it will also probably be coated in leaked out PS fluid and road grease; otherwise...

Chrysler products have had a ~1/2" wide groove in the original shows for years; DO NOT replace the brakes "just" because of that. I have a 1978 Plymouth Fury 2 door with 48K original miles on it; and still has the orig brakes out back. and yes they are grooved. I THINK their idea was that once...

"what" rod/bar? there are a few under there; the most common "troublemaker" has nothing to do with the steering box that would be the track bar. then we move onto tie rods, steering box coupler and so on. I have info on a rebuilder in Chicago if you need it; I just was there last friday and got...
