Were those results with the alt in the JEEP or removed.

Can you elaborate on your rant a little bit? Are you saying that the previous tests of the alternator were false positives that could have been detected in some way? I watched them do it every time and they always did it the same way, even at different stores and chains. If there is some way of...

Problem has been fixed, I hope. I ended up using one of those pay for an answer sites and they gave me the diagrams and pin outs I needed. I connected two new wires from the alt to the PCM and nothing happened. I checked the voltage on the exciter wire coming from the alt and my meter went to...

OK, I am 98% sure that the cause of my problem is the connection between the computer and the alternator. Does anyone have an EVTM for this year Cherokee? I need to know which pin on the computer is the voltage regulator signal and which of the two tabs on the back of the alternator does it go...

I located all grounds under hood and sanded the sheet metal down to bare metal and coated the area with dielectric. Still no love. I have the battery on a trickle charger right now because the Jeep died as my GF pulled into the driveway. I hope we didn't over discharge the battery. There is...

OK, I managed to find a replacement computer for $55. I replaced the computer and guess what... the problem came back two days later. So, I am back to square one. When I did the test described earlier, I had the MM set to 20V DC. I put the negative lead on the signal origin and the positive...

I did the test as described above and got nothing on the multimeter. I did the test while the problem was occurring and after resetting the computer to remove the issue. I also tested the voltage across the battery in both conditions and verified that the generator was not charging before the...

OK, I will try that. The ground cable is new, replaced it a couple months ago when the problem came back. The positive cable at the battery has new ends on it. I cut the old clamp off and cut back to where I could see clean shiny copper then soldered two new ends on it. I sanded every connection...

I have done several tests. Would you please give me a little more info on this test?

I am having the opposite problem and have narrowed the possibilities down to the PCM. Where is it located in a 95 Cherokee Sport? I am 99.5% sure it is the PCM because I have replaced/tested everything else and the problem always goes away after I "fix" it and then it comes back. The alternator...

I forgot to mention that I changed the fuel filter when we got it, it is just one of my things. I do a complete tune up on all used vehicles that I buy. The problem ended up being the pump. I tried to get a complete assy for the replacement but parts stores only had the pump and sock. I...

Will do, thanks for the help.

Correct, no fuel came out of the schrader valve. Is there a specific relay that you would recommend using for the swap test? Is it possible to jumper the connection?

I am thinking it is the fuel pump. I had her turn the key on while I listened at the tank and I didn't hear anything. I pushed in the shrader valve on the fuel line under the hood. I checked the fuse and thought I heard the relay click. Is there a way to test the relay? I don't want to buy a new...

Dandy, Did you do an SYE? I am thinking of swapping the ACOS and bastard pack from my Chief project onto my GF's 96. We just want to fit 30s and we don't really care if we have to do a t-case drop. I just don't want to have to spend $$$ on extra parts to use parts that I have laying around. Sean
