If the security system on a 1991 Jeep Cherokee will not allow the Jeep to start and the key will not turn in the lock, disconnect the battery for a few minutes. Try the key in the lock with the battery disconnected. If it works the first time, reconnect the battery and the system should be reset. If the key does not work in the lock, reconnect the battery and reprogram the key fob.

My sister just had the same thing happen to her 1994 Jeep. Her security lights were flashing and there was a clicking noise when she tried to turn her jeep on. She tried resetting her locks with no luck. Therefore, we ended up using jumper cables to try to restart her car and it worked.

Where is the security reset switch on a 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

Put the key in the driver's door (from the outside), and unlock the door. That resets the security system.


How do you reset 1995 Jeep Cherokee security system switch?

Depends. That system is a real bear. IF you have a battery that is 'suspect' in any way, you need to replace it with a quality battery. the security module will dump into 'security' status when the voltage drops during crank over. A healthy battery is really important on this system. Also, check the door entry key switches AND the tailgate switch which is a magnetic proximity switch as opposed to the front door microswitches that hang on the entry key cylinder tails. Next, check or just disconnect the hood security plunger switch near the battery. The possibility exists that the overhead console is contributing to your problem as it is wired to the security module. I have a 92 Cherokee and have been holding my breath for 5 years that it continues to run. I had an infrared security key built by a firm I found online. The jeep came without one. as the front door lock switches had failed and I got tired of unlocking the system at the tailgate, I wanted a normal way to unlock the doors and disarm the security system. Good luck on your problem.
