Replying to: ryan99 (Aug 21, 2008 3:41 pm) Looks like I had a faulty guage to check pressure with, the system was low on freon and got nice and cool when I added a little freon, The AC is the only real problem I have had with this Jeep for 6 years now, but its been a pain since day one.

Replying to: fatboybryan (Aug 22, 2008 12:20 pm) the brake light,just like a oil light,works when it gets a ground.. to check it,unplug the wire going to the switch that turns it on..on the brake system,there is also a wire going to the proporting"splitter" valve..it's where the front and back brakes split-follow the lines down from the master cylinder..there should be a wire there..if you unplug that wire,and the light goes off,you may need to bleed the brakes,or have them serviced professionally.. ..try unplugging theswitch on the hand brake first..whatever switch you unplug-then the light goes off,that's where your problem is.. electrical problems can be some of the most difficult things to track down..     of course,you could always do the un-approved method,and pull the bulb!!(lol)!!
#2398 of 2529 Squealing Brakes by torrymendoza Aug 25, 2008 (3:57 pm)
I recently had my rear drum brakes replaced, everything's new, lines, drums, everything. I replaced the from disc brakes with my brother, but the rear brakes squeal like crazy once I get moving. I'd say after about 5 - 10 minutes they become audible. Does anyone know what might be causing this or if this will go away? Replies to this message: dancerman (Aug 25, 2008 6:36 pm)

Replying to: torrymendoza (Aug 25, 2008 3:57 pm) That's not good. Your description indicates to me that something inside the drum is loose or improperly installed. I would pull the wheels and look inside the drums for signs of metal to metal contact (such as metal filings or places that are ground down by rubbing contact).
#2400 of 2529 Anti Freeze Leak by bricksie Aug 29, 2008 (2:39 am)
I smell anit-freeze inside the cabin of my 2002 Grand Cherokee. I suspect the heater core is leaking. Any info on how to get at it? Like a schematic or drawing showing bolts and parts? It looks pretty buried. Replies to this message: lildavidjax (Aug 29, 2008 7:52 am) loosenut (Nov 17, 2008 12:03 am)

Replying to: bricksie (Aug 29, 2008 2:39 am) Your suspicions are probably correct. I would suggest getting the manual, as that will be no picnic pulling the dash, If that's the case. If you don't smoke, I suggest you start, if you don't drink, I suggest you start. 'Cause it is an all day event and usually requires two people. Just to let you know, Ido feel your pain, because I too have been smelling antifreeze in the cockpit of my Nissan Pathfinder. I suspect I will have to pull the dash soon.Good luck! David
#2402 of 2529 Grand Cherokee 06 water on passenger front floor by dmphil Sep 07, 2008 (8:11 am)
The floor of the front passenger side gets very wet. I am convinced it is connected to the air condlitioning. Any way to fix this yourself? Has anyone else had this problem? Replies to this message: tidester (Sep 07, 2008 10:56 am) loosenut (Sep 09, 2008 1:36 am) dancerman (Sep 09, 2008 9:43 am)

Replying to: dmphil (Sep 07, 2008 8:11 am) It could be a disconnected air conditioning drain hose. Perhaps a Cherokee owner can tell you how to check and fix. Anyone?   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: dmphil (Sep 07, 2008 8:11 am) a two year old jeep,with a bad heater core??it has happened..,but,your suspicion of the blocked condensation drain might be it as well.. my advice-if you plan on keeping this jeep for any length of time,and/or fixing stuff yourself-go back to the dealer,and get the body service manual for your model..this is the book written by the people who designed and built it..   i've worked on a lot of old stuff,ans having the book from the builders is a valuable thing..they can show you how to get to the "secret" bolts they always seem to hide in places i'd normally never think to look..most of those haynes and chilton manuals are so generic,they seldom help when you get up under the dash,and need to find that mystery screw.. --one other source might be THE LOCAL LIBRARY!!..i once found service manuals for a packard!!..aparently,some old mecanic had donated his collection..they shure were handy!!..try there!!?!
