Check the plug wires. It does no take many loose connections to take the kick out of an engine. Turn off the engine and press all the wires down around the cap of the distributor and do the same for each plug.


If that does not help, one of the wires may need replacement? New set of wires start at $30 on a six cylinder.

SOURCE: Airbag light indicator: Jeep Grand Cherokee 1997

there are many sensors and and each airbag have sensors so you will have to get it scanned to know where to start. just a note air bag parts can be very expensive so check out your local salvage yard. they can save you hundreds. good luck

SOURCE: where is the pcm on 1997 jeep grand cherokee 6 cyl?

I don't think the PCM is your problem, is the check engine light on? It could be you idle air control motor this is located on the throttle body, but because this happens while driving I am thinking you will need to replace your crank shaft position sensor it is located on the transmissinon bell housing it is very hard to replace without the correct tools. If the check engine light is on take it to a local auto parts store and ask if they can check the check engine codes for you they usally will do this for free.

I have a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, 6 cyl. It will stall while I am driving, and may restart right away or may not restart for 20 minutes. I keep hearing this is a common problem for these Jeeps...

check fuel pressure regulator.....Fuel on one side of diaphrag, and vacuum pressure on other if there is fuel on the vacuum side then diaphragm is leaking...causing ecu to think there is plenty of pressure and holds back the signal to turn on fuel pump....

I have a 1997 jeep grand cherokee with automatic and 4.0 six cyl engine--it drives great for a day or two then stalls out seemingly for no reason--now tonight it has no spark from the coil--so I feel it is...

Unlikely that it's a computer. Check your coil and the grounds, make sure you don't have any breaks in the wires that could cause an intermittent problem.
