How to replace antenna on 1994 Geo Prism?
Just did it... You have to buy an exact OEM replacement. Unscrew the antenna unit by removing the two screws. Pull out the remaining metal antenna and the wire. A plastic tube that houses the antenna will need to be removed. I was unable to remove the antenna cable as it is clipped behind the dash. I cut the wire leaving about 6 inches remaining above the roof of the car. Remove the inside trim along the top of the driverside door, all the way to the fron window. Additionally, remove the small trim piece along the edge of the door beside the drivers side dash. With the new antenna unit, begin to thread the antenna cable through the existing roof opening along-side the original cable that remains. As you thread the cable through the body, take notice of a hole in the body on the inside of the car above the drivers side door. You should see the new cable pass by the hole. Pull the cable through the hole.(I had to enlarge the hole to accomodate the plug that attaches to the radio. I used a dremel tool with a grinding bit to slightly enlarge the hole.) Once you get the antenna cable through the hole, pass the metal antenna and cable through the hole in the roof until you can mount the antenna housing to the roof using the two screws. Run the cable under the door trim and down under the dash. Make sure the new cable does not interfere with your steering wheel or and thnig else. I hope this helps you. I would have loved to see this before taking on this project. I just replaced the antenna on my 1994 Geo Prism and found that only one piece of trim needed to be removed. It is the piece with the fuse box door on the inside drivers side. Once you have it removed you have access to a plug and cable that runs from the antenna to the radio. Unplug the antenna remove the screws on the outside, pull the old antenna and cable out,put the new antenna and cable in, plug it into the cable running to the radio, replace the screws and trim, job done! I followed above answer with one modificarion. Only had to remove fusebox molding. Unscrew antenna from roof.cut antenna wire and leave as much as possible. Pulled out clear plastic piece. Taped end of new antenna wire to end I cut off old antenna wire. Pulled new wire thru and connected to wire that goes to redio. No grinding.
Bad smell coming from the heater of your 95 Jeep Cherokee what could cause it?
A bad smell coming from the heater in a vehicle can indicate a bad heater core. One way to check this out is to see if the smell is worse when you sit in the passenger seat. If it is, there is a good chance the heater core is bad.
Where do you put the jack on a 98 Jeep Cherokee?
The jack is located under the spare tire. If you remove the spare tire, you will see it in the center of the well.

How do i bleed the breaks on a 1999 Jeep Cherokee?
The 1988 jeep Cherokee Laredo has the sealed cooling system. Many bloggers have posted instructions on how to bleed or burp by removing the rad cap. This does not exist on the 88. Here is what I have come across during my search ( I am currently attempting to bleed my system), that you need to remove the temperature sensor valve. There is a bolt near the back of the valve cover under the hood on the driver's side. There is a small temperature fitting on top of the bolt that is easily pulled off. This is the sensor that feeds your dashboard gauge. When pulled off the temp will read zero. This procedure must be done after the car has cooled off, otherwise you will end up badly burned and needing to replace the bolt you just launched after being sprayed by boiling hot coolant. To start, be sure that the sensor bolt is higher than the front of the valve cover. In other words you need to lift the back of the car or park on a steep enough incline so that the back of the valve cover is higher than the front. When the bolt is removed you will hear air bubbles escape and hiss out as it leaves the hole. Immediately replace the bolt when coolant begins to flow. This process will need to be completed 5 or 6 times and will take most of the day because after each attempt you need to run the car to temperature and let cool before trying again. This will fix problems related to the jeep running cooler than usual or over heating in heavy traffic. It will also fix the problem with your heater not blowing hot air. The bolt requires a 13m deep socket to be removed. It may also fix problems with leaking coolant.
What I did the other day was to Remove the upper radiator hose and finish filling the radiator that way. It can take forever trying to add through the coolant bottle and then it still will not take as much coolant as needed. Very frustrating, be nice to have a real radiator cap.

What causes a 2004 Jeep Cherokee to shake at any speed but shakes violently at 47 mph and below?
I have a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee that had the same problem. I found out it was a rod that went from the front right wheel to the main body, it's called a STEERING DAMPENER. After I replaced it she drives like a dream now.
How do you change an oil pan gasket on an 1992 jeep Cherokee?
- 1 First check to see if the bolts holding the cover are still snug. Most after market repair manuals will give you torque specs if you want to get that particular. If the bolts are tight and you still need to change the cover gasket, and you are not to familiar with components, just mark every hose and its matching connection with masking tape and a number system. Careful with the vacuum hoses, over time they become brittle. Dont worry, if you crack one, new hose can be purchase by the foot from any auto parts store.
Once you have marked and removed lines, remove cover and clean both surfaces thoroughly.Place a clean shop rag over and around the valves to stop debris from falling into the valve area, as well as controlling oil mess.
You may use either a replacement gasket or an automotive silicone. Follow directions of gasket material manufacturer. Before you do either wipe the mating surface with acetone or Laquer thinners. This will allow a clean bond of new materials.
Torque bolts to spec when reinstalling, recheck them in near future.
- 2 It is often necessary to remove one or two radiator hoses to remove the valve cover. These will spill some coolant when you remove them if your radiator is at normal levels. In order to avoid this, you may choose to flush the radiator in conjunction with your valve cover gasket replacement. Also, while there are aftermarket gasket replacements for the Cherokee available (usually made from cork), the chorokee did come from the factory installed only with a silicone sealent for a gasket. Some people decide to simply replace that sealent. Be sure to remove and clean off the former gasket residue thoroughly while not scratching the metal surfaces to be mated (spray brake cleaner on a rag to wipe down the area as a last step). If you decide to use RTV silicone, be sure to apply an even, continuous bead, and follow directions on the packaging. When torquing bolts, only tighten until you can see the silicone seal begin to flatten out. The bolts do not necessarily need to be tight! If you cleaned the valve cover surfaces properly, the silicone will hold the valve cover on for a decade or more.
What does code 55 mean on a 1995 Jeep Cherokee?
Code 55 comes at the end of every code reading. It tells you that that is the end of the trouble codes. What ever code you get before it is the problem. If you get no code before, then you have no problems that you powertrain control module recognizes.
Are there any quick diagrams for how to install the neutral safety switch on a 1996 Jeep Cherokee?
No This link may help you though,http://www.cherokee-jeep.com/1-2swremov.htm
The information given is only for the AW4 transmission. You have the 42RE or 44RE, depends on if you have the I6 or v8. It is a $20-30 part from the dealer and is located on the drivers side of the transmission. Some tranny fluid will come out so either do a fluid change at the same time or pick up some extra ATF+4 to replentish.
My FSM isn't giving much information to tell the location but go buy the part and look for one that matches, it is right above my tranny fluid pan about center 98 I6.
I put a thing on my blog to help you out and anyone else that finds this and needs it. .

Engine should start in Park and Neutral only.
on a flat bed tow truck Addition>>> if it is part time 4wd it can be lifted and towed short distances or longer distances on dollies and if it is a quadra trac driveline it can be towed with all wheels on the ground (same for part time 4wd) in DRIVE with transfer case in Neutral (PER JEEP) with the ignition OFF. Quadra trac drive lines also can be lifted and towed on dollies. NOTE: In this instance the term Dollies refers to the auxillary wheels used by tow truck operators to tow vehicles that do not have wheels that will spin freely, NOT the front wheel driveon trailers used to tow cars. This type of trailer is not suitable for towing full time four wheel drive vehicles.

How do you change the transmission fluid on a 4ltr strait 6 1996 jeep Cherokee 4x4?
Since it is so high mileage I think I would just pull the pan and change the 4-6 quarts that are in the pan and replace the filter. If you go to a place that flushes transmissions, I have known that with the new fluid the lining comes off of the fiber plates.
. use atf+4 from Chrysler dealer or it destroys the clutches.
