Jeep Cherokee

Oh, what a lovely question! For your 2004 Jeep Cherokee, you'll want to use a coolant that meets the specifications outlined in your owner's manual. It's important to choose the right coolant to keep your Jeep running smoothly and happily. Just follow the guidelines provided, and your Jeep will be as happy as a little tree in the sunshine.

so you replace the light

It takes a few seconds for the oil pump to fill the oil filter and then pressurize the engine's lubrication system.

If your Jeep has the earlier AMC based 4.0, 4.2, or 6.0 liter engines, the oil filter is rather large and takes a few seconds longer to fill. If you change your own oil, you can prefill the filter with oil if the filter mounts with the filter pointing upwards... horizontal mounting makes for a mess.

If you change the oil and the pressure registers within 6 or 7 seconds of start-up and idle, there is no damage to the engine. I have had an engine that was run for three or four 15 second runs without damage (I made an oops installing an oil pump and it wouldn't prime).

If you are concerned about oil pressure, have the engine checked with an external pressure gage. If the pressure is below specifications, the pump may be worn and is taking too long to build up pressure after an oil change. The AMC pumps give long service and usually only need replacement after very high milage.

I just had the same problem with my '91 wrangler. It would sputter after it was warm and then not start once engine was off. I had to let it cool down for a good 2 hours. It was electrical. I needed a new crank shaft censor. After that she ran like an angel. I also got an injection flush. Good luck.

First remove the windshield wipers, pry up the small tab near the vent cowl on each wiper. Then remove the screws that hold the vent cowl, pull the vent cowl off and you will see the wiper motor on the driver side

Up streem or Down streem. The up streem is right after the exhaust manifold attaches to the down pipe, and the down streem one is after the cat and before the muffler.

remove the black plastic liner in your front passenger side wheel-well...this can be done with the removal of a few screws or rivets..... The power antenna motor and assembly will then be easily accessed. Remove the old one (not much to it) and replace, sites such as Ebay offer new ones for under $40 dollars.

There is no actuator. The connection is made inside the transfer case when you put it in 4wd.

its either 355 or 373 there are tags on diff that give you numbers

The switch is either on the acccumulator or close to it. Just unplug it and short across the two wires. Don't run it this way for an extended period of time if it is low on freon as the compressor won't get lubricated and it will crater. GoodluckJoe

As you stand in front of your Jeep, the radiator drain plug sticks out the bottom of the left side. With a large gathering container on the floor, loosen the drain plug with an open-end wrench (or more suitable tool if you have one) only until the coolant flows through the spout, it's made so you don't have to (or want to) completely remove it. Now empty, you can either use a flush-N-fill kit, or if you're on a budget, run water at moderate pressure through a garden hose at the radiator cap opening for 20-30 seconds and let it drain. Tighten the drain plug and refill with a good mix 60/40 or whatever's best for where you live. [Take care to refill slowly - even though OEM radiators are supposed to purge air pockets, I had already installed a new aftermarket radiator and didn't want to take any chances. Air pockets can cause cooling system malfunctions and engine damage in a general sense, I'm not enough of a technician to list specifics.] Good luck !

The oil sending unit is on the bottom of the engine towards the back of the engine compartment. It's located under and slightly behind the distributor cap, and directly above the oil filter. If you still can't find it take it to a shop because you have no business working on the vehicle. The above statement is true for SOME, not all. The oil sendind unit on my 2002 4.0L is n the sparkplug side not far from where the oil dipstick enters the crankcase. It is nowhere near the oil filter. It is close to the firewall and hard to see. Look for the wire harness.

The quick answer is around $205 (if you live in the Phoenix area). But there are other things that come into play such as if the molding is included, if you have rain sensing glass etc. Additionally, the area you live in can affect the price as it will not be the same across the entire country.

under the dash - about where the drivers right knee would be on a left hand drive model.

check main fuses under dash and hood , if you recently had a remote starter system installed there are fuses for the remote system that might have blown last the main connection for power door locks could be disconnected its on the driver side either behind the plastic panel on left or above the gas pedal

You can order one through your local Chrysler Dealership. That's what I did. Or, for the tech savvy, order one through the Jeep website. You can download a copy for free(2004 and newer) or pay to order a hard copy.

It sends the proper signal to the ecu to allow certain curcuits to close to allow power to the acc, on and run positions with the key.
