Re: problem getting cherokee part
Hi Shephen,
I would take the Stealership at their word, and buy a new brain
box: http://www.----------.com/powertrainModule.pdf You may see by the
pages just how individually programed it would have to be to control
your car, sure it's a grand, but what choice do you have?
God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O

Re: problem getting 99 cherokee part
Unless the power was being fed by some other component, like the ign switch
in the crank position.
I have seen some fuses or terminals make contact sometimes. UGLY problem to
find usually. I would prefer DEAD over sometimes dead! :-)
Gauges shutting off indicate, to me at least, that power has stopped. Gotta
find where that power is coming from and the Ign. Switch comes to mind.
good luck Stephen and let us know what the problem was.

At this point not much choice. I tried several other places and they
have them on backorder also. I found one place that will refurb the
existing one and a couple of places that sell used ones. Seems that
not a lot of those are held in stock due to the high cost, their being
very vehicle configuration specific, low failure rate and so on.
