Does a 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport have anti-lock brakes?

ABS was optional. Look for ABS wires that run alongside the normal brake lines, or look for the ABS pump assembly next to the brake master cylinder.


Why do a Jeep Cherokee brakes tap?

If I'm reading the question right, the brakes release when it cant grip the road to avoid a spin out. This would be caused by the ABS. If it is not from the ABS, something could be having trouble, so it would be best to check it.


ABS light on your 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee brakes seem to be find any help?

I have a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I have the same problem. The ABS light came on, the brakes (all four) were replaced. The light would not go off. I just took it to the dealership and they determined that the controller had gone bad and that the part was discontinued by the manufacture a long time ago. They basically in so many words told me to disconnect the light, because otherwise it will never pass inspection. They stressed to me that they could not do this, that they were not allowed to do that. I need to find out how to disconnect the ABS light. Jeep Abs control modules can be refurbished for much less than buying a new one ( around $100 ). One company that will do this is BBA-re manufacturing inc. They have an excellent web site and can also be found on E-bay. Please have the code checked, if it is a sensor or module code the base brakes will function ok. If it a pressure code then the base brakes could have a problem.


How can you turn off the ABS light in the dashboard of a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Nobody can tell what is wrong with it. How can I disconnect it all together?

The easiest way to turn the light off is to remove the lamp. However, the ABS unit will still not work and the vehicle could slide if the brakes are applied hard.


Why is my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo brakes getting hot?

Hi im Mike from Mn, I also have a 2000 jeep grand Cherokee with front brakes that are partially engaged so that they heat up. I got them to release after pulling the fuse and relay for the ABS IN THE FUSE BOX under the hood. The brakes work ok now and have not stuck back on but the ABS system is no longer working. I went to the Jeep dealer and they said they had never heard of this problem before.They said if I can make it happen again they may be able to figure it out. Any info you have about this problem would be greatly appreciated Mike
