Replying to: boboli (Nov 16, 2006 10:37 am) isn't it in the lock itself on those cars? Replies to this message: boboli (Nov 16, 2006 11:58 am) Mr_Shiftright (Nov 16, 2006 12:15 pm)

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Nov 16, 2006 11:26 am) That is a thought. That door also has a child safety switch that will lock itself at times. Any ideas on what to look at, or how to test?   Thanks for any help. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Nov 16, 2006 12:15 pm)

Replying to: boboli (Nov 16, 2006 11:58 am) sorry no, I have just heard that this is where that dome light switch is. I'd suggest going to the Explorer topic (see make/model drop down window to left of this page) and then once there use the "search" feature and plug in "door switch" or "short in dome light".

Replying to: boboli (Nov 16, 2006 10:37 am) yes, the door ajar switch is in the latch, I have "fixed" several of them in the past (mostly on taurus's) by just spraying some penetrating fluid in the latch, and working it for a bit, in fact, out of the dozen or so I've seen, Ive only had to actually replace 1, dont even take the panal off, just spray directly into the latch and work it back and forth.

#699 of 1085 94 Jeep Grand Cherokee Electrical Puzzle (Radio - Interior lights problem) by 94grandcherlar Nov 25, 2006 (4:14 pm)
Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Aug 04, 2005 7:46 am) When any door is opened or the dash lights dimmer switch is pushed to ON, the interior lights come on but many other things don't work - radio turns off, pwr locks, map lights don't work. Another piece of this puzzle; when the key is turned off then turned on again later, the radio resets to 12:00 with the stored radio stations still there, but not any "recently" saved/stored radio stations. The radio is the original unit and I'm not aware of any electrical issues from the previous owner.

Replying to: fanuttin (Dec 06, 2006 2:08 am) Headlight Dimmer Switch GM Blazer/Jimmy/Typhoon/Bravada 1983-1993   REMOVAL & INSTALLATION      1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.    2. Remove the lower column trim panel, then remove the steering column-to-instrument panel fasteners and carefully lower the column for access to the switch.   If the ignition switch shares fasteners with the dimmer switch it may be necessary to remove it first.      3. Remove the dimmer switch-to-steering column retainers, then remove the switch from the column.   To install:      4. Position the switch to the column and loosely install the retainers.    5. Insert a 3/32 in. (2.38mm) drill bit into the adjustment hole provided in the switch to limit travel, then push the switch up against the actuator rod in order to remove lash.    6. Tighten the switch retainers, then remove the drill bit.    7. If removed for access, install the ignition switch.    8. Raise the column into position and secure, then install any necessary trim plates.    9. Make sure the ignition is OFF, then connect the negative battery cable.
