?What do you mean NSS? Neutral Safety Switch? NSS is not an Abbreviation that I have ever heard of in 40 years. If you are talking about a Neutral Safety switch it is located in the transmission and would keep you from starting the vehicle unless it is in park or Neutral. Assuming you are talking about this and it's not the more common problem in the vehicles of the Linkage being out of adjustment it is located inside the transmission and can actually be replaced without any special tools or dropping the transmission in most cases.

More then likely it is you heater relay. it is located inside the vehicle on the passenger side under the glove box. You will have to remove the cover under the glove box and you will find it there. Should take about 30 to replace it.

The backup lights on my 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee won't work. Have checked all the things I know how to except the NSS. Where is the NSS located and am I better off trying to clean/adjust it or replace it?

the backup light gets its power from the neutral safety switch on transmission.
\When you put vehicle in reverse it toggles the switch in the tranny to engage the backup lights.
if that plug has the wire broke off the backup lights will not work.

Located a chilton for 1998 jeep will it work for 1992 jeep cherokee. need to replace the alternator

Depends on which engine you have. If it is a 4.0L it should change out the same. This one must be removed from the bottom of the vehicle. Pay particular attention to the belt loosening technique in the maual which adjusts with the power steering pump.
