I have a 1987 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer 4.0L.. Not Charging...I am not new by any means to auto repair but I am thoroughly frustrated about my issue.. Frustrated enough to ask for help...About a month ago I noticed that my Battery Gauge while driving would intermittantly fall from past 13 to 8 and back. This issue got more and more constant until it would not charge at all and totally died about a week ago... I : Replaced the battery= no charge, replaced the alternator=no charge, thought it was a bad alternator from the store took it back, it past the tests at two different auto parts store, but got another one anyway=no charge, replaced all relays= no charge, replaced battery cables both positive and negative,cable coming from alternator to junction box,and the junction box(or whatever that is called)= no charge.. Thought maybe the new battery was bad, got another one. .....Battery is not being charged while driving what so ever.. Seems to me that it may be a voltage regulator issue..I have found conflicting information on the net so i am here to ask......Is the voltage regulator part of the ECM? Or is this for newer models. If it is part of the ECM why are there voltage regulators listed on the part store websites.....If it is not the ECM what in the heck is it??? Help..... I am am getting ready to give up, sell it and buy another one.....If i can't resolve this I will have a 1987 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer for sale.. you can see it at http://home.surewest.net/fearless4x4 or youtube.com/fearless4x4tv.. its the white one.....
