My 99 Cherokee limited has had perpetual electrical issues since I bought it 4 years ago. I love this vehicle but have got to figure out the problem or it has to go. Sometimes the speedometer and tach go out, sometimes all gauges go out. (The gauge cluster and harness have been replaced). The "outage" may last for a few seconds to a few hours. Sometimes the odometer catches up, sometimes it does not. Last week put me over the edge - it would start but died immediately - during which the gauges did not move at all. I left it in the parking garage at work overnight - next day it started like nothing ever happened and has run fine since. The local jeep dealer says they can't tell whether or which harness might be bad. I suppose it is not in their best interest to figure it out. Help please.

Please someone help me... Recently I had my front drive line removed from the quadra-track 02 jeep. My problem was whenever i turned a corner in the jeep it would make a grinding noise and it sounded horrible. The mechanics told me i had metal pieces in my front differential and the best and cheapest way to fix it was to remove this drive line.... Now it sucks because i dont have 4wh drive anymore and if feel this is a safety issue. The mechanics also told me that the quada-track system isn't strong enough to take it off roading in the sand and that thats why it was tearing up the front diff. Has this happened to anyone else?

Assuming your truck has CV joints and not U-joints, the first thing I would look at is the rubber boots on the CV joints to see if they're ripped or torn. If you get dirt or water in the CV joints, they will go bad quickly. |
