Why does your 1993 Jeep Grand Cherekee make a high pitch wining noise when you accelerate?

Asked by Wiki User

The sound is probably from the power steering pump. If the sound gets louder when you turn the wheel, it's a sure bet. Check the fluid level, but with the age of the vehicle, the noise may be permanent unless the pump is replaced.

Open the hood and look for a acess hole in the radiater support bracket just above the headlite. You will need a long torx screw driver to reach the adjustment screw (only one for each lite). Good luck.

Asked by Wiki User

Allow the car to cool. Remove radiator cap. Add water or coolant to fill radiator. Start engine leaving cap off. check to see if coolant is circulating in radiator. Locate upper rad hose, and squeeze to move air bubbles out, or to ecourage circulation. If large air bubble works its way out, add coolant to fill. Once coolant starts to expand and spill out, replace cap. Watch temperature gauge to esure the problem has been rectified. You may have to repeat this procedure.

How do you remove rear tires off a 96 jeep grand Cherokee?

Make sure the e-brake is fully disengaged. Then even still since the e-brake shoes use the inside of the rear rotor for braking there can be some build up of rust. You need work to rotor off. It takes some time and patience but it works. It might also depend on how much material you have left on your e-brake shoes. When I changed mine I had no material left on the shoes and it was still somewhat difficult to remove the rotor. Hopefully this helps.

Why would the driver brake light go out on a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee when you hit the brakes?

The light-bulb actually heats the base of the plastic lens assembly where the bulb plugs into. This allows the metal contacts for the bulb to sink into the plastic a little bit, causing the metal to loose contact with the bulb.

The simple fix is to pry the metal contacts up a little so they will make contact with the bulb again. It doesn't take much, so be careful.

I myself would not do this as the Jeep is a Uni-body construction and if you catch the plow on a curb you could bend the body to a point where the doors will not open.

Asked by Wiki User

Its on the passenger side underneath the dash. Take off the kick panel that's right below the glove compartment (2 screws you can see underneath, 2 you have to take off the glove compartment door to get to). Once you get that off, its really easy to see. There are 2 bolts (size about 7mm) holding it in and a locking clip with the 4 blower swith wires coming out.

Tail lights-- You have to unscrew the three bolts inside the hatch, pull the tail light toward you, then turn the bulb at the top.

Third brake light-- You have to take (4) screws out of the plastic trim around the top of the hatch inside. Then remove the plastic trim and turn whichever bulb is burnt out and replace it.

I live in the Midwest and my 1995 Country now has 330,000+ miles and I have always gone with the standard 10w30 and 5w30. The main consideration is what climate you live in - then check what is the recommended weight for the temperatures you are driving in.

How do you change the transmission fluid on a 4ltr strait 6 1996 jeep Cherokee 4x4?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

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.

How do you clear ac drain line 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is a ridiculous design it actually drains inside the uni-body frame rail, you will have to remove the dash to get to the hvac unit and replace the seal that seal it against the firewall from the passenger side so it will stop leaking inside the car, or you could cut a hole inside the fender well to get to it and attach a drain hose that will drain inside the fender well through the hole that you made.

Why does my 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee start fine sometimes other times hard start and cuts off?

Asked by Wiki User

I had this problem and found and answer on the internet. Find your computer, mine is next to windshield wiper water bottle. Pull off the plastic cover than unplug the leads to computer. You will see two screws back them out one turn. That is it. Some how the cover is shorting the computer because the screws are to tight, Mine is a 1996 Cherokee Limited.

How do you replace the headlight bulb located on a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I believe all 93-98 Grand Cherokees are the same but basically you just pull and pry (gently of course) until the whole headlight pulls...well pops really...out. Then you have access to the back of it to change the bulb and it just pushes back in. It is a little tricky and i think a screwdriver works best but really be careful what your prying against because most of it is plastic and can crack. Taking this out will also give you access to the screws holding the parking/turn signal lights.

I've got a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo V8 w/ Quadtrac & have had to replace some light bulbs in it. To get the headlight off, you have to unscrew the top screw which is in the corner closest to the fender, and then there's another screw between the headlight & the front blinker even though there's absolutely no room. I could find no way to get a screwdriver or any other took to fit in there & the repair shop had no idea how to replace it. I was told by a friend that you can get an Allen wrench in there? I ended up breaking the brackets for the bottom screws on both headlights, but you can keep the headlight staying in with just the top screw.

Why won't intermittent wiper control wo rk on your 93 jeep grand Cherokee?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

in the kick panel on the drivers side forward of the door there is a control box velcroed to the inside. this is the intermittent wiper control box if your wipers dont park or they wont spray windshield fluid this box is more likely the cause. a quick way to test this is to disconnect the box on both ends. then connect the two plugs together. your wipers will work in the low and high position only but they will park when shut off, also the windshield waasher fluid should spray again too. what you need to do is replace that control box, or if you think you can fix it open it up and look for the burnt solder strip on the board. I fixed mine three times this winter alone and all i used was stranded wire copper wire pieces looped around the broken solder strips
