hey everybody
Well as of about 2 weeks ago everything was completely find with the cherokee. it sits quite a bit now that my brother and I dont live at home anymore. I put a diehard platinum in it last winter and haven't had any electrical issues since then. (dead battery was causing some weird issues). Well this weekend I was home for a couple days and decided to fire up the XJ and go for a spin. I get in a turn the key, and nothing happens, no dash lights, fuel pump doesn't kick on...nothing. then all of a sudden, fuel pump primes and dash lights come on, and I fire it up. everything is running fine, until i turn on the windshield wipers to clear the Dew. XJ immediately dies. I think its coincidence, but I repeat this 2-3 times in a row. I drive down the road, and everything is driving fine, and no other electrical accessories cause it to stall. get back in the driveway, hit the windshield wipers, and it stalls.
the dash lights would kind of flicker a bit before either going completely on, or off so I'm thinking it may be a ground issue. but the wiper causing it to stall:scared:
any help here...95 XJ if that helps
