There are known problems with the blender doors failing on WJ Jeeps with the dual zone climate control. See WJJEEPS.COM.

try tracing down all the small vacuum lines. pay close attention to the ones that run under the battery, make sure they dont have any breaks in them.

1994 cut off. by jeepinjoeszj

My 1994 5.2 just did this today, I turned it on it idled smooth for about 10-15 secs and cut off. No sputtering no "stalling" just cut straight off, as if I had turned the ignition off. And it will not start back, it turns over just won't start. I haven't had a good chance to look at it yet and am just looking to find the best place to start. I believe it to be an electrical problem, be it a fuse or relay or short. Dunno yet. Any ideas?

The problem could be the ECM (Engine Control Module)which is located on the right side of the engine near the distributor. It will be sealed in black rubberized epoxy. This is a sealed unit and cannot be repaired.You need to get a code reader to verify what code comes up. That will point you to the problem area. The other cause could be your timing chain or belt since it will no longer start.
 
Cost for replacing timing chain or belt $350.00 approx.
Cost for replacing ECM (new) $650.00 (junkyard) $200.00
 
Since your vehicle is a 1994 and depending your mileage and how frequently you change your oil, I would suspect the timing chain first. ECM rarely fail. I hope this helps.

Timing chains are also a almost never fail item. If you did not hear any unusual noises when it shut down I would be more likely to suspect an electrical problem.

I too have the exact same problem with my '05 Grand Cherokee. I believe that JEEP knows there is a standing problem because the first several times I took the car in for the problem, I was also having standard oil changes, etc., and at no time did any of the dealerships ever document that I was bringing it in for the stalling issue. Now, two years later, they are saying there is no history of it. My car stalls mostly at slow down or when I am excelerating from a stop, which has caused several "close calls". It started out being once in a while and has increased to almost everyday. It is only a matter of time before a major accident occurs and I am fearful. I have been told by one dealership in Huntington Beach, CA that there is no reason to even bring it in because it is a random occurance that is not showing up on the computer and so there is nothing they can do for me. I am going to leave the car this week with another dealership in Cerritos, CA and tell them I will not be picking it up until it is fixed! Please email me at dkzsocal.rr.com and I will keep you posted as I am going to try to use the lemon law to get a refund!!
