Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo

It's really not that hard. To change the Front brake pads (the rear are similar):

1) After jacking and supporting the Jeep, remove the wheel.

2) Use a C clamp (about 6" to 8") to compress the piston.

3) Remove the 2 Hex Key slide bolts that are under the plactic caps. Clean the bolts and set them in a clean place. These Hex Key bolts are Metric. If I remember correctly, they are 7 or 9mm.

4) Remember, hang the removed caliper on a piece of wire or tie-strap. Never allow the caliper to hang by the brake hose.

5) Remove the pads and get a new set. There are 2 different kinds calipers for this Jeep and they use different pad sets. You can't tell which one it is on OEM callipers until you remove it.

6) Insert new pads being carefull not to get any grease or oil on them. It usually comes off your hands or fingers.

7) Place caliper on rotor.

8) Lubricate the Slide Pins. sometimes the lube comes with the new pads but other times it doesn't. Find out before you bring the new pads home 'cause there is a special lube for the slide pins.

9) Install the slide pins and tighten them to 25-30 foot pounds.

10) Reinstall wheel, lower and you're done.

11) APPLY BRAKE PEDAL 3 TO 4 TIMES UNTIL THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS FIRM OR WHEN YOU PUT IT IN GEAR YOU WILL RUN INTO WHAT EVER IS IN FRONT OR BACK AS YOU WILL HAVE NO BRAKES

12) Seat the brake pads, the methods vary but the first 3-5 applications while driving will have less than desired braking so allow extra space for stopping

The serpentine belt goes around all of your pullies in the front of your motor, behind the radiator.

Could be one of your belts.

If you have replaced or unplugged any antitheft component, the computer in the car has to relearn the identity of the part. To do this simply attempt to start the car (some times it will start then shut down instantly) then just leave the key in the running possision. The theft system light will be flashing on the dash for about 10 minutes, when it stops flashing the computer has finished learning the new code. Try starting again, it should run fine now. Also, check the EGR valve. If the car seems to run fine until the engine is warmed up, and then stalls at idle, it's possible that the EGR valve is sticking open.

you have to remove the back driver trim in the back of the jeep..........you will find a green plug, the aftermarket wiring will plug into that.......................good luck

The airbag light comes on at start up for a bulb check. It stays on when the computer detects a malfunction and sets a code.

Where is the filter? The fuel filter is on the passenger side under the door near the front wheel well. It is behind a curved shield and a flat plate covering the fuel filter that is marked "fuel filter replace."

How do you access it? There is an aluminum plate held on with 3 13mm bolts. Remove it. Behind it there is a black plastic shield, held on with 2 10mm nuts. Remove that and you will see the fuel filter, and the bracket that holds it on.

How do you replace the fuel filter? This fuel filter has three lines attached to it. You need a fuel line release tool for one of the lines. You can get this tool for $10-$20 at most good auto parts stores. The line that requires the tool is the line that is by itself, and has an additional safety clip that must be removed to gain access. The other two lines have clips that release without a special tool. These clips are called R-clips. Each one has a little locking tab that you release, which allows you to squeeze the ends of the clip toward each other and slide the clip partially out of the connector housing, which releases the line from the filter nipple. Study the clip carefully before you attempt to remove it so you won't damage it.

there is a ford recall for this problem. contact your ford dealer.

I have a 2003 Chevy Impala and I am bringing it to my mechanic, the dealer said it could be just a blown fuse and also may be the switch, i can get back to you on it.

I have an 89 Jeep Cherokee Laredo, and both my doors, and back panel have 5.25" speakers... I'm not sure if the 93 Cherokee is the same, but I hope I help.

My 92 Cherokee also has 5.25" speakers in both doors and in the rear hatch...however you can fit 6.5" speakers in the door with little or no modifications. Also you can fit 6.5" speakers in the rear hatch with a little cutting to the fiberglass.

It is under the front of the passenger side cylinder head.

As on many cars these days, we often can be "bumped" in the rear while parked or otherwise and this can shut down the fuel system temporarily. Open your trunk lid and on the left side(fender area) there is a box or compartment cover. Just look around for it, its there... Inside there is a reset button... just press it and your vehicle should restart. Anything beyond this may r4equire the assistance of a mechanic..blah, blah...

My Dana 35 is in a 98 ZJ with a 5.9. It has 30 splines.

The spring that assists the window to the up position is very strong and do not attempt to remove the old motor with the window in the down position. Your fingers wil thank you. -Inspect the power window switches for broken or loose wires. -Check the power window fuse or circuit breaker. -Remove door panels and check power window motor wires to see if they are loose or damaged. Inspect the glass mechanism for damage which can cause binding. -If it's only one window not working and all the above checks out ok then you may have to replace the window motor.

What size engine?

The light assembly has screws on the outside take them out then you need to firmly place a flathead screw driver on the edge of the assembly to pry it loose.

I have a 2001 RAV and will be changing them this week at 99K+ miles...

maybe it is the security system

Ive had no less than 7 mechanics trying to fix this problem on my 98 Jeep GC. We have replaced half the car already and it still does it. It is not the timing chain, it is not out of gas, and it is not the security system. Jeep/Chrysler has no idea what is causing this in a large number of 98 Jeep GC. If you own one that shuts down do the world a favor and distroy it. We are trying one last thing before I junk mine. I am sending the dash cluster to a technician to check it out. I'll let you know.

If it's 3rd party car alarm maker such as Clifford, then yes, you can. You'll find the answer in the manual. In case you don't have a manual, you should be able to get it from their websites. For clifford, you'd go to clifford.com -> "guides" and pick the one that's matches your alarm best. Even if you don't know the exact model, chances are that the reset codes remain the same.

They aren't free?

My first gues would be that you've used a bulb with the wrong wattage. There are some dual-filament bulbs that can be inserted the wrong way.
