    What did you do to your jeep today?

    0/5/2024 - Replaced my starter because the one I installed last year failed. At least it was under warranty. That didn't take the sting out of having to do it again. Replaced the starter relay. 0/6/24 - Removed the stuck disk out of my CD player. I may disassemble it today to see why a disk...

    Lights, radio, wipers, power windows and locks work but Jeep doesn't turn over.

    I may have finally resolved my issues but I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch. The day before yesterday I got it home. I disconnected the battery cables overnight and the next day after reconnecting them I tried it. It wouldn't start. So I crawled under it and gave the starter a few...

    Lights, radio, wipers, power windows and locks work but Jeep doesn't turn over.

    Hey, KLC, I tried switching the relays around and that didn't work. I then bypassed the relay and I got it started but I had to finagle the jumper wire a bit before it started turning over. I then shut it off and put the relay back in and it started again. I shut it off once more and it didn't...

    Hey, KLC, thanks for the reply and the heads up. I sure hope that's all it is.

    Lights, radio, wipers, power windows and locks work but Jeep doesn't turn over.

    Hey, folks. I have a new problem. I went to town today and made a stop at Lowe's. My Jeep started just fine when leaving there. I then went to the grocery store and when I came out, my Jeep wouldn't start. When I turn the key, everything works. It just isn't cranking over. I get nothing. I just...

    4x4 shifting issue

    Okay! I got the bushing in place. 4WD is working. I dropped the bushing once and it appeared to have completely vanished. I found in on top of the cross member. I also found the clip I dropped the other day on it. Thanks, everyone for your input regarding this issue.

    4x4 shifting issue

    It's at the transfer case. There's just no way the part I got is going into the eyelet on the end of the shift rod. The diameter is way to big. I went to O'Reilly Auto Parts and I think I got what I needed. I"ll find out tomorrow when I attempt to install it. At least the Jeep is mobile now.

    4x4 shifting issue

    I got my Jeep moving. The part I ordered was wrong. I ordered the JL1Kit1 as suggested above. It was way to big to go into the hole for the pin. The part I need is only the center bushing. It's like the part in this video. Anyway, I decided to try something just to get it to go. I put the...

    4x4 shifting issue

    I had to wait for the rain to stop but I finally got under the jeep to take a look and it is indeed the linkage is disconnected. I was trying to get a hitch pin on it to hold it in place so I could at least move it. It's very tight in there and I couldn't get a good angle to push it on. I'm...

    4x4 shifting issue

    So, I've got the Jeep on jack stands but I can't seem to find where the transfer case linkage is. I may be looking in entirely the wrong place. Any help identifying the location is greatly appreciated.

    4x4 shifting issue

    Okay, here's the issue. I was having difficulty shifting in and out of four wheel drive the other day. Today I had to move my Jeep to shovel snow, so I backed down the driveway. I then attempted to put the transmission into four wheel drive. I moved the shifter and there was tension on it then...

    No heat while idling

    Good luck! I hope that's all it is. I wouldn't wish changing a heater core on anyone after what I went through.

    No heat while idling

    I'm sorry to hear that you have this issue because you may not want to hear this. I don't want to put a scare into and here's hoping it's not the case but but do you smell coolant? Monitor your coolant level and see if it goes down. It may be imperceptible at first. I had that same issue last...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I replaced the clock spring a couple of weeks ago. Replaced the heater blower motor resistor today. The fan works on all four speeds now for the first time in years.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I installed a new clock spring. I watched a video on Youtube on how to do it. It took the dude in the video a few hours to get the steering wheel bolt off so I was a bit apprehensive. He finally got it off with an air impact. I removed the air bag, two screws and three wires and the nut turned...
