Seems like you might have wet the no 1 injector sensor..(little black plastic thing with 2 wires) It sends a pulse back to ecu and if wet it,s no good....

the washer pump is located in the bottom of the washer bottle.if you remove the bottle disconnect the washer hose and electrical plug.most of the pumps you just pull it out of the rubber o ring that seals the pump so the fluid won`t run out and holds the pump in place.

it sounds like you have an internal trans problem that needs to be checked out by a trans tech it could be something easy like a solenoid but it should be checked out

P0700 is a generic fault code indicating a transmission problem. It's possible it's a left over code from the bad transmission you replaced. You may need to have the code cleared at a transmission shop that uses a different code reader to clear the code. Unfortunately, unlike the standard OBDII code reader, the transmission codes don't always reset themselves after a repair is made.

P1494 code is a leak detection pump switch or mechanical fault, leak detection pump switch does not respond to input. The leak detection pump (if equipped) is located under the air filter housing on models through 2001. Check if the vapor and vacuum lines are securely connected to the leak detection pump or a diagonstic trouble code my be set like this. The leak detection pump switch may be bad and need replaced.

either the lights are turned on manually from the headlight/interior light switch, or you have a defective door switch that is telling the module that a door is open, or you have a door that is open, or your module that controls the interior lights is defective. I would start with the simple things, I would make sure all doors are closed. If they are, then check the headlight/interior switch to make sure the interior lights are in the off position, then check all of the door switches. They are simple normally closed push button switches that should be mounted on the car frame near the door hinges.

Some vehicles do that and it's OK. It is cooling down the transmission fluid. Once it reaches the set temperature, it will shut off.

There are codes stored in the PCM. Go to an Auto Zone (or possibly other parts stores) and have them hook up a code reader. Its usually a free service.

Might have to reset the codes on the computer. Take the + battery cable off the battery and reconnect it afer 5 minutes. Next try to start the engine without holding the gas petal down, it should start and run rought till the computer resets itself. If engine stops, restart the engine and hold the gas petal down and give it enought gas so it will run smooth, it may take 5 minutes or so for it to smooth out and run at idle speed. If this did not fix the problem, check for a vaccum hose that may be off some where on the engine

If you are talking about the rubber in the balancer itself. You can not do this. Balancers are fairly inexpensive. I would get one at a junk yard. I think they are about 40.00 dollars new.

You folks really need to learn to give more detailed info when you need help. The answer is, "it depends". If you have the small Cherokee, the answer is no. If you have the Grand Cherokee, the answer is yes. You will have to remove the motor and regulator to get them apart.

comon problem was the fuel tank float.

You have to remove the door panel to access the mounting bolts. Once you remove the screws that secure the handle and other components from the door panel, the panel will pop off when you pull it outward. The top of the panel will come off when you push up after lossening the bottom and side clips. There a flat tool that is used to release these clips, but they do break when you try to remove them, but are easily purchased at any auto center.
There are three bolts to remove the mirror. If you have the rare heated rear view mirror option, you'll have to disconnect the harness before removing the mirror.

I suggest check your electrical section in the 2000 Jeep Cherokee Service Manual ( pass : pdftown.com )

If need other details, just ask us later; hope this helps.
