If it has a V8 then it's a GRAND Cherokee, not a Cherokee. Big Difference. Whitish hue in the dipstick usually means that there is water in the oil. That's not good.

Where is the location of the oil pressure sensing unit on a 2001 Jeep Cherokee?
The oil pressure sensing unit is right above the oil filter on the front of the 4.7L 2001 Grand Cherokee.
Check the keyswitch.
How many quarts of oil do you need for a 95 Jeep Cherokee?

How can you tell if the throttle position sensor is bad on your 2001 Jeep Cherokee?
Stop at Autozone and ask the counter person to hook up the code reader. It will tell you if the TPS is bad. You (as the driver) will have an idea because sometimes your idle will be high, sometimes low, making the engine seem to run rough at times. If you drive a manual tranny, the shifting engine speed (clutch depressed between gears) might not be correct.
Why causes jeep Cherokee steering column to seem broken?
Normally the four screws that hold the tilt wheel assembly come loose. This is a common problem. Info is availale all over the net.
What will fix 1994 Jeep Cherokee headlights flashing on and off while driving?
Did you upgrade the headlights? If you did by chance at some point, they may be draining more current out of the circuitry that it is capable of running, overloading it and causing these blips. Try going back to the factory recommended bulbs.
== == == == Bad headlight relay, loose connection, Bad ground. I cannot speak to your specific make and model, BUT most vehicles, some for many years, protect the HEADLIGHT circuit with "automatic resetting" CIRCUIT BREAKERS, instead of fuses. The purpose for this was so that if a short circuit occured while night driving, the headlights would only be out for a few seconds, returning momentarily to provide light for safely slowing and stopping the vehicle. This was a safety improvement over the old fuse system which once "blown" would leave a driver at highway speed, possibly in total darkness. Since the auto-resetting circuit breaker is a thermally operated device based on amount of current flowing through it, the cyclic rate of off/on will vary depending on the relative severity of the short circuit. Sometimes, if the short itself is only intermittent, the issue will arise only occasionally, and seem to "come and go." And of course, there could be other causes. Regardless of cause, the issue you describe IS a SERIOUS SAFETY problem, and you should take your vehicle to an auto electronics technician, or a qualified mechanic. He/she should troubleshoot your electrical system, identify the cause of the problem, and PROPERLY correct it.j3h.
How do you set the clock in a 1998 Jeep Cherokee?
If it has the stock radio there are two holes about the size of the tip of a pen in the screen just to the right of the display. The top one is hours, the bottom one is minutes.
Is there much involved with replacing an oil pressure sensor harness on a Jeep Cherokee 2.5 Diesel?
I wonder if the harness is faulty or the sensor and or gauge. First consult the wiring diagram.. I check ground on the harness first. Are there other electrical problems, possibly related to the same electrical issue? As for the pressure sensor, check for voltage, or, if you remove the wire feeding the sensor and ground it, with someone watching the gauge for movement. If you see movement at the gauge, the fault is the sensor. If no movement run a temporary line and bypass the harness. If this is successful, make plans to change that temporary title to permanent. Needless to say, harness changing is daunting and unneccesary.

How can you locate the starter relay on a 88 Jeep Cherokee?
== == Follow the positive battery cable down from the battery until you hit the relay. The starter relay is located next to the battery. On the positive battery post, (red) you will see 2 red wires, one thicker than the other one, The thicker one connects to the starter SOLENOID which is attached to the Starter, while the thinner of the two wires off of the battery goes to the starter RELAY, which is where you will find your alternators B+ charging wire, and your connections for fuel pump ballast resistor,starter solenoid, ignition terminal and ground terminal. All the wires connecting to the Starter relay are connected with spade terminals and use FUSIBLE LINKS between the actual terminal and the red wire. The FUSIBLE LINKS are your protection for that circuit, and should not be replaced with regular wire at any cost, but replaced with a new piece of FUSIBLE LINK of the same gauge as the one removed.

How do you change the fuel pump on a 1990 Jeep Cherokee?
There are two ways, jack the jeep and do it from underneath or remove the gas tank altogether. First, remove the gas cap to relieve fuel pressure then remove the negative cable from the battery. From underneath, the fuel pump is normally in plain sight and not too difficult to get at. Remove the fuel lines and watch out for gas that will come out of the lines, unplug the fuel pump electrical. The fuel pump is held in place by a lock ring, it has three tabs that you use a hammer and screwdriver to undo. DO NOT TAP TOO HARD AS A SPARK MAY OCCUR AND GOOD BYE FELLA!!!!!!!! The lock key will hopefully spin without too much effort and once free you can slide it off along the wiring. You should be able to pull the fuel pump out, if the tank is in place then it will be a bit tricky to get it out and around the axle but it can be done. Do not drop or place the pump on the ground, you don't want to pick up dirt that will end up in your gas tank later. There is a seal and if the seal seems ok then you can reuse it but most people don't take the chance and replace the seal. Now, when installing, you should notice that there is a black rubber stopper that is attached to the bottom of the pump, if not then it's still in place in the tank which is not a problem. If the stopper came out then when putting the pump back in, the black stopper will go into a pickup housing. If it stayed in there then the tube at the bottom of the pump must slide back into the black stopper or the fuel pump wont sit or seal properly. Installation is the opposite of removal. Good luck.
