94 I believe is number 4 on the panel.
It is on the same circuit as the brake lights, but if they are not working, and the bulbs are good your switch needs cleaning or adjustment.
Attempt this first since the switch costs nearly $300 bucks.
On the passengers side of the trans just behind the bell housing there is a fan shaped switch, loosen the 12mm bolt ( smaller of the two, and rotate the switch while a friend checks the lights. this problem is usually accompanied by an occasional inability to start the vehicle, but can be cured by jiggling the shifter.
While adjusting the switch make sure that the vehicle will start in park as well, remember to block the wheels while testing the back up lights, engine off, key in run but not start, shifter in reverse, move switch until lights come on.
Once you find this spot, hold it in place and have your helper check to make sure it will start. This may take several tries to get both working correctly.
If you have no luck the switch may be dirty, this happens a lot. Hold the post to the bottom large bolt still while you loosen the nut, then remove it, then remove the 12mm adjusting bolt on top, remove the wire connector and pull the switch away, remove the bolts on the switch and separate the halves, use electrical contact cleaner and maybe some q-tips to clean all the copper connections completely apply di-electric grease and reassemble, refit to the trans and readjust so all functions work, this switch controls back up and start safety.
Caution! always hold that bottom bolt while tightening the large nut, this is connected to the gear adjuster and you could damage the internals if it isn't secured while you do it.
Lights are on #7 and #23 on the fuse panel.

Check all the mini-fuses in the under-hood fuse box. They are not labeled. 1997-2001 XJ Jeep Cherokee, one of the unmarked fuses is for the factory installed fog lamps.
try cavity #6 5amp fuse should be tan according to owners manual,6th one down on left side of fuse box.
on my 93 Cherokee the horn fuse is #11, a 25 amp fuse.
On my 95 its #14 yellow 20 amps

The gen light stays on when the charging system malfunctions.
I have a 1998 Sport and have several times gotten the low fuel light. Never actually have run out of gas and I have driven up to about 15 miles with the light on.
When my jeep cherokee alternator went bad, the check engine light came on and I didnt have a clue what was going on until my volt guage was reading in the red zone. When I replaced my alternator, the light went off. So in my opinion i wouldnt consider the check engine light as a alternator light.
your door may not be closed all the way or the keys are still in or you did not lock it.
Take it and have it checked for codes. It sounds like the trans is overheating and needs repaired before it is ruined.
No light on 95-96 cherokee. Thay are a self-contained unit.
gear box
OPen the rear hatch. I believe there are 3 maybe 4 bolts that screw in around the light housing. Remove them and pull the housing out. Turn the burnt bulb out and replace everything in reverse order.
There are several reasons why a check engine light could be on a 1995 Jeep Cherokee Sport. A few reasons are a loose gas cap, spark plugs, or low oil.
under the dash in the fuse box
I was told by my parts guy that the back up light switch is the same as the reverse light switch.
Dealer.
check the reverse light switch and all connections
The gen light stays on when the charging system malfunctions.
You have it checked for codes, and have the cause of the code repaired.
There are pages and pages of codes, have it checked by a scanner and then diagnosed from there.
The reverse wire on the side of trans mite have came off or you may have afalty reverse switch on trans or a bad ground from bolbes.
