On most 4x4 vehicles made today require you to put them in neutral before any transitions in changing to 4x4 or back to 4x2. On older models neutral and then move selector to range desired.I hope this will help you. Jesus loves you, John 3:16-17 (KJV)

SOURCE: 2004 Grand Cherokee: oil pressure fluctuates

if you know for certain that the sending unit is correct and the guage is accurate, then yiu may have big problems.....while the engine is running open the oil filler hole.. is everything wet with oil? or does it look dry or just a little lubed? you can allways install an aftermarket oil pressure guage(crappy tire) if you get the same results with that then you may have a week oil pump....worst case scenerio... need an engine rebuild as the moter may have wear issues.does the pressure slowly drop as the motor warms up? at idle ? does it jump up when you step on the gas?

SOURCE: stuck in 4x4 low range

My wife just recently had a similar problem. She got stuck in the mud and put our 2004 F150 in 4x4 Low to get out. She didn't. Had to have AAA pull her out. She then left a bit later and the truck was still in 4x4 Low even after switching to 2WD. She even tried going backwards to get it to switch. So she called me frantically because the car would not go over 10 mph w/o the RPMs getting way too high. I said I'd call her back. So I called our local Ford Repair shop and he gave me these instructions (loosely based on what the owner's manual says to do) 1. Start Vehicle 2. Switch to 4x4 Low 3. Put in Neutral 4. Switch to 4x4 High 5. Go in Reverse for a bit and then Forward a bit again (You should now be in 4x4 High) 6. Put in Neutral 7. Switch to 2WD You should now be good. If that didn't work, then try repeating step 5 after step 7. Which reminds me. I really should call her back :) (It worked)

SOURCE: My 98 s10 is stuck in 4 wheel drive low.

Pull the kick panel on the passenger side. there is a small box mounted there that is the computer that controls the actuator for the 4wd system. this is notorious for problems due in fact that the connector likes to pull out and away from the module. I had the same problem and the solution is simple.. take a long zip tie and get it between a few of the wires and around the module. tie it in and have a nice day.. it wont come off or try to pop out anymore and you should have no issues getting into 2wd, 4wd h, 4wd L.

SOURCE: 1999 Jeep grand cherokee limited - irregular idle

I don 't know if I can solve it, but I had a very similar problem on a 2002 Grd Cherokee Laredo. It ended up being the Throttle Positioning Sensor (TPS). Unfortunately the part alone is about $125 and and total installed cost was about $250. It would idle high at first, then gradually work it self down to a normal idle. Once it was warmed up it it would have an up and down RPM during idling, and several times it stalled out at intersections. There was also a lot of transmission clunking going on when you put it in reverse or drive.
Runs like a dream now. Clunking is gone and idle speed is just right.

Four wheel drive will not work on 1999 quadra trac II

First you need to check the transfer case fluid. It may be low or the wrong type. You need to go to the dealership to get the right type. It would be hard to go into more details without more info from you. Does both ranges not work? (4 wheel high and low)
Or is it just the 4 wheel high range that doesn't work?

Should the transmission on a Jeep Grand Cherokee be in 4 wheel hi all the time.

If there is an option to run 2wd, that would be the most fuel conservative option. You shouldnt need 4 wheel drive unless you are driving in snow and or mud, or need extra torque while towing a load. 4 wheel high would be the most common under the given circumstances. 4 wheel low is a lower ranged gear that gives you more power to climb hills or remove your vehicle from "sticky" terrain.

My 06 grand cherokee laredo has a 4x4 emblem on the vehicle, and a traction button on the dash, how do I operate the 4x4?

Your jeep should have full time four wheel drive. To place the transfer case in low range look down to the console towards the rear and you will see a "T" shaped handle. To place it into low range you should stop place the vehicle into park and lift the T handle and in the dash a 4X4 indicator lamp will light up. The traction button on the dash would be used in 4 wheel high mode when you start to experience wheel slippage upon take off from a stopped position. This will give you a little more control. You only need to use the low range for very slow speeds in mud or snow. Otherwise just leave it in high range because it is always using 4 wheel drive. This is a very reliable system which Jeep has refined over the years. Your Grand Cherokee is not designed fro hard core off road use. Hard core off road use will destroy the undercarriage. The Grand Cherokee is more of a luxury soccer mom 4X4 with good road manners, a comfortable ride, and good reliability.

How to put a 95 or 96 jeep cherokee sport in 4 wheel drive. handle is left of the gear shift.

You can change on the run but as a general rule stop to change to 4wd.except 2wd to 4wd high.Just slow down to about 15mph and back off the gas.
2wd high is normal running
4wd high(is full time 4wd)this is slippery roads or muddy roads.
4wd high lock For bad and slower slippery and rocky roads.
4wd low lock is for extreme 4wd conditions
Don't use the last 2 on the main roads or transfercase will be damaged
Hope this helps

I have a '90 cherokee laredo, and I am wondering if there is any special sequence to engaging the 4x4. also, there is a red and green set of toggle switches on the console by the e-brake that don't seem to...

You can engage the 4x4 into high range while driving at lower speeds, to go into low range, you will need to come to a stop to engage 4 low, and also to disengage 4 low. As for the toggle switches, they are aftermarket that someone may have installed for some type of accessory they may have mounted, i.e. fog lamps, driving lights, auxillary interior light, etc.

Have 2005 Jeep Cherokee

it will be very noticeable in low range verse high range has a big gear reduction so you would notice truck very jumpy and revving high when taking off. if you are having problems getting out of low have vehicle in nuetral when switching sometimes helps if truck is rolling just a little so when you are going about 5mph shift into nuetral and let truck roll flip it into high range will usually hear a clunk from shaft when it shifts
