Truck will start, then shuts down. No gauges working on dash.
Fuses first. as always for ever. (its all electrical ,now to run engine)
and shift.
All jeeps 93 + have a thing (fear box) ASD relay.
nowing how it works and why , makes all this easy
any scan tool will tell you why. Innova 3120 (does jeeps this year)
a $100 tool
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Equus-3120-Innova-Diagnostic-Code-Scanner/14644658
with special cables for jeep , OBD1 DTC port.
the tool will tell you , what DTC failure and why ASD drops.

the key on ,off trick may work
but be warned the keyone off trick does clear some spark failure codes and will not tell you the extended codes, of the factory DRB tool. so the INNOVA can be a "revelation"
id never own any jeep before 1996 , with no scan tool.
not me. first time it saves you, its now PAID FOR.
Investment grade TOOLS. if ever there was.
not $100 shop labor and no tools and guessing parts.
win.
SOURCE: Engine died at signal light, all gauges shut down,
has the chip fallen out of the key?? try the spare key
SOURCE: checked fuses, dash lights don't
take out the plastic panel on the drivers side in the cargo area. tucked inside the body where the taillight wiring is you will find about 6 to 8 wiring plugs. disconect all of them (dont forget to mark them as you disconnect each one. put in a new fuse and turn on the ignition. start connecting them one by one, you will hear the fuse blow when you connect the one thats bad. it should be either the rear window defroster or the rear wiper. it may sound like a lot of work, but it's pretty simple. hope that works it did for me.
