Gentlemen,
I'm sorry, it's an 1997 Jeep Cherokee, 6 cyl with automatic transmission, two wheel drive, and though it doesn't say scout on it, I've seen others that do...

Re: 1997 transmission sensors
To start off, I would get a spray contact cleaner and clean the contacts
on the TPS which controls the transmission shift points. These throttle position sensors on the 4.0's are notorious for getting bad connections. Same goes for the other computer sensors like the one on the transmission, they are easily prone to corrosion and intermittent failures because of it because they only pass low power computer signals. Using a spray contact cleaner that the electronic stores sell does them wonders. Coating the plug seals with dielectric grease also helps keep them clean. When electronic parts fail, they normally up and die. Bad connections usually make the intermittent failures. I would do the clean before spending money on parts.
