    Engine stall and starting issues

    This must be 2004 16V CRD....unfortunately we do not have Service Manuals for the 2004 KJs but the 2003 manuals should be close enough other than the color of the wiring! Download the Service Manuals here.....there is a good section explaining how to check the fuel system for leaks...

    2003 kj liberty sport 2.5 Ltd turbo diesel 5 speed bus problem

    Is this an "Export" 2.5 CRD with the fixed-vane turbo...such as I have...or the newer variable-vane-turbo 2.8L? Either way you can download the Jeep KJ Service Manuals here...if it is the non-variable model then also download the section "2_5 2_8 Export Diesel" section s there are some...

    New power steering pump - white (Teflon?) gasket?

    What year is the KJ? Early 2002 KJs like mine came with Mopar Power Steering Fluid ....a sort of light honey-colored fluid. They then issued a TB stating that all of these Jeeps need to have the Power Steering completely flushed-out and replaced with the reddish ATF +4 fluid. I had no...

    Your knowledge required please

    ausjeepoffroad is generally pretty quiet these days as regards the KJs but very useful to get to know the local owners who can help you out with spares etc. and there are some differences between the USA and Export models!

    Sentry Key shows up and jeep will not turn over

    You must have bumped loose a connector or damaged a wire. No point in re-entering the SKEES number. Does the ASD Relay energize? The engine should crank...but not fire...no matter what the SKEES is doing. Remove the Starter Relay and identify pins #30 and #87 in the empty female slot. With...

    Have you joined the www.ausjeepoffroad.com Forum? lots of clever people there and they have Jeeps with the steering wheel on the "Right" side as well as other slight differances to the USA models!;)

    2005 Jeep Liberty wont turn over, checked ignition switch and not broken.

    A bit of an old post but just saw this now. Jumping the Starter Relay will turn over the motor but the SKEES Anti-theft will not let it start if a SKEES problem is present. On the CRD the ASD relay needs to be energized by the ECM if it is happy with the Chipped key. Same on the 3.7...

    Engine stall and starting issues

    Be careful when replacing the fuel filter. It is possible that when you remove the old filter a rubber seal gets left behind. You then put on a new filter that has a rubber seal fitted so now you have two seals on top of each other which causes air to get sucked in!:oops:

    timing belt won't go over tensioner

    Have you slacked off the Tensioner? I believe the Tensioner has a Left-Hand Thread bolt keeping it in place. If you do not have it already, download the 2006 Jeep KJ Service Manual here: www.colorado4wheel.com/manuals/Jeep/KJ/

    Engine stall and starting issues

    When last did you replace the fuel filter? I went for a fair amount of time with a new fuel filter sitting under my seat waiting to be fitted. On the open road the engine would just cut out. I wait a few seconds and it would start up again. Eventually I replaced the fuel filter...pumped all...

    New Alternator and Battery. System not charging.

    Yeah it will be difficult to trace the wiring much further...they dissapear into the PCM and some lines from the PCM then dissappear on CAN C BUS lines to "Computer Data Lines System" somewhere....a White/Light Blue line and a White/Black line! I have seem some posts over the years where Owners...

    New Alternator and Battery. System not charging.

    Look at the sticky in front of the KK General Discussion Section...has some links to wiring diagrams for certain KKs! I have some "overall" diagrams for the 2008 and 2012 KKs....generally show most wires going into the Totally Intergrated Power Module...Left Front of Engine Compartment! The...

    PLEASE HELP Problem with my Headlights staying on

    What year/model is your Jeep?....we can look through the Wiring Diagrams if it is a 2002,3,5,6 KJ;) As stated above the Multi Function Switch is known to fail fairly often. This is the switch that has your Turn signal stalk, Low beam/High beam stalk etc. on it.

    New bad clutch?

    It is possible to install the clutch disc the wrong way around on some vehicles......when I was young and stupid....I am no longer young...I did this on my 1984 BMW E323 6 cylinder. o_O Vehicle did not move an inch so it was a case of start all over again! Definitely worth reading the 2002...

    New bad clutch?

    The KJ clutch flywheel is not flat...it has a slight curve in it! The Service manual tells you how you can remove slight scratches on it with Emory cloth but the flywheel must never be machined flat! The clutch friction plate must be the correct one to match the flywheel. I bet some previous...

    2002 Jeep Cherokee/Liberty Radio Head Unit Problem

    There is always a possibility that a previous owner has messed around with the original wiring for some reason or other. I have never seen a Relay behind the steering wheel that could be clicking...you need to check if that looks original or added on. My Export Diesel is coming up for 20 years...

    2002 Jeep Cherokee/Liberty Radio Head Unit Problem

    I have the same Radio/Tape deck in my Export 2002 CRD but do not have the rear CD player/shuttle. If you lose power to the Radio you have to enter a 4 digit code to get it to work again...hopefully you have that code written down somewhere in your manuals!:oops: I believe there may be a fuse...

    2002 Jeep Cherokee/Liberty Radio Head Unit Problem

    Check the fuses and wiring using the 2002 Jeep KJ Service Manuals here: www.colorado4wheel.com/manuals/Jeep/KJ/ Section 8W has the Wiring diagrams. Get the fuses in the correct positions and the correct values and see what happens! ;)

    Another question about a weird rattle in my 2003 Jeep Liberty

    Only the CRD and the 2.4 L 4 cylinder have an alternator with a one-way clutch fitted! ;) This is to compensate for the 4 cylinder roughness which the V6 does not have.
