96 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo shuts down while in drive

My Jeep will just turn off when you're driving. Feels like it is going to down shift and then nothing. Then it won't start for a bit. After ahwhile it'll turn back on. Just now I can't get it to start. Replaced coil last night. Any ideas? I read about a Crankshaft Position Sensor in another post, do Jeep Cherokee's have these as well? Thanks

Quite possible you have a bad ignition coil. As coil heats up it breaks down and will not return to normal till it cools down. Check for spark the next time this happens. If spark is weak or not there, it warrants testing or replacement.

SOURCE: 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee not getting power to coil

I don't work on Jeeps, but the Rangers have a power relay for the ignition. You might want to try asking at Autozone or O'reillys if the Jeep has any relays. It might be worthwhile to check the fuse panel to see if something blew that might control 2 or 3 things including the ignition. Hope this helps you.

SOURCE: No fire to coil from coil on 96 model Jeep Grand Cherokee.

You need to put the harmonic balance for the 96 jeep on this motor,then put the crankshaft sensor on for the 96 jeep on the vehicle,this should fix you up.The crankshaft sensor and the harmonic balance have to go together.If I can be further help,let me know.>>[email protected]

Inatallation: 4.0L Engine
New replacement sensors will be equipped with a paper spacer glued to bottom of sensor. If installing (returning) a used sensor to vehicle, a new paper spacer must be installed to bottom of sensor. This spacer will be ground off the first time engine is started. If spacer is not used, sensor will be broken the first time engine is started.

New Sensors:
Be sure paper spacer is installed to bottom of sensor. If not, obtain spacer PN05252229.

Used Sensors:
Clean bottom of sensor and install spacer PN05252229.

  1. Install sensor into transmission bellhousing hole.
  2. Position sensor wire shield to sensor.
  3. Push sensor against flywheel/drive plate. With sensor pushed against flywheel/drive plate, tighten mounting bolt to 7 Nm (60 inch lbs.) torque.
  4. Route sensor wiring harness into wire shield.
  5. Connect sensor pigtail harness electrical connector to main wiring harness.
