Does anyone know where I can buy a diagnostic checker thingy... How much it costs and is it made just for a Jeep Cherokee? More particularly a 4.0L 4x4 Auto 1990 2DR XJ...

What all vehicles does this plugger work on?
MOOSE16285 said:Damnit, I have the Renix version... As more and more time passes with this Jeep and even with all the memories, I'm really getting sick of have such an awesome 4x4 dead in the driveway... Quick, someone slap me... I might actually be considering to part way ways with my 1st vehicle... My 1st 4x4... My 1st Jeep... It's been taking up WAY too much money, time, and space... I'm really sick of being pissed off for hours after spending ALL freaking day working on it to no further advancing... Toyotas seem to be the favorite and most common 4x4s in town... Since I was a little boy, helping my dad work on his '84 XJ, I knew I wanted one. Now I got it and it's been worthless for 5 months and almost a year of great times... *sighs* I'll give it a couple more tries but I just keep getting disappointing and non-reassuring news and unsuccessful attempts at getting it to work again... Whatever, I'm outta here... - MOOSE
Or, go to pirate4x4 at http://www.pirate4x4.com/tech/billavista/PDFs/Jeep_Renix_Fuel_Injection_manual.pdf.5-90 said:Join the "strokers" group (groups.yahoo.com/group/strokers) and find the RENIX FI manual in the "files" section - that's most of what you'll need to know, as far as specifics.
No you need a very hard to find scanner for a renix system, about $1500 for every thing.DIGITRUCK said:Hey,
Can't you just use the Ign Key Sequence to get the MIL Light to flash the codes?
So for these older XJ's (mine's an '88) do I really need to spend money on a diagnostic test meter or will the above suffice in getting any codes I need?
Thx, Phil
