did you manually unlock the door from the drivers side?..this is how you reset the factory alarm system..
-also,my -97,witch i just rescued from a body shop where it sat for two years,had the auto lights,and the instrument lights were controlled by the slide switch next to the headlight switch..i took wd-40,with the straw attached,and gave the slide switch a two secound spray,then worked the switch several times,as this cleaned the contacts inside...it seems to have addressed the problem!!..worth a try!..

98 cherokee electric problem by portercable78

I have a 98 cherokee. This problem has been ongoing for maybe 2 years. When driving over 50 mph it bucks usually while going uphill and while letting up on acceleration. I have had it to numerous mechanics including the jeep dealer who had a chrysler mechanic look at it. no one can figure it out-all they know is that its electrical. ive had the computer replaced, as well as numerous sensors-including the cam and crank sensors. the engine light used to come on frequently-but now stays on all the time. obd code reads cam sensor, but not the problem. it runs fine otherwise-any suggestions?

For several weeks my battery guage would spike to 19 and then go back down on its own or if I turned off the car and then turned it back on.....then last night my ABS light and check engine light came on. I was not real concerned as it has happened in the past and been nothing. I turned of the car and then went back out two hours later...tried to start it and nothing...would not turn over or even register it had a battery....no lights door ding or anything.....helpppppppp do not have a lot money to put in it so ANY adivice would be greatly appreciated!

Rear Wiper Problem on 2005 GC by ajarigo

I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with their rear wiper coming on for no reason. My rear wiper will turn on with the wiper switch in the off position. Even when I shut off the vehicle the rear wiper will continue to run for about 30 seconds or so. I've already had numerous electrical with this vehicle.

97 Grand Cherokee ignition seems to come on by itself by autobodywizard

Here's the problem with my 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Out of nowhere, when I go to get in the vehicle, as soon as I open the door, the heater fan comes on with no key in the ignition. The heater fan switch is in the on position when this happens but there is no key in the ignition and the ignition is in the off position. It happened a week ago and it killed the battery. at that time, I charged it and started it and shut it off, but its almost like the key was still on but it wasn't. The dash lights went off with the key but the fan and blinkers still had power.
I unhooked the battery and waited a minute, hooked it back up but the fan blower and blinkers still worked with no key on. I unhooked the battery overnight and the next day everything was ok after I rehooked the battery.
 
Today I opened the door and the fan started to run with no key in the ignition.
I left the battery unhooked for a few hours, hooked it up and the fan didn't come on, until I opened the door.
 
This is a nice vehicle but when I figure out the problem it will be up for sale.
 
Any clues from anyone?
Thanks, Dan
