1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Page 2 Questions & Answers
Dash lights keep dimming
Most likely the dimmer switch. Loose connections from the harness connector to the switch can melt the connectors which would cause a poor connection and be the source of the flicker. You may be looking at a combination switch and wiring problem.
Transmission
Check your rear emergency brakes. A brake shoe pin could have broke and the shoe locks up in 1 direction. but not the other. The other problem you mentioned could happen, but if it is in reverse the trans shifted.
I have a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee with fuel pump
Let me be clear here. Crank means turn. Ignite means start running. So it will crank but not ignite and ur sure u have 35psi of fuel pressure. Next is to have someone gently wiggle the wires at the engine control unit while u turn the key
Fm stereo
FM radio reception relies on a very good working antenna and cable, AM reception much less so. Unfortunately, the problem could be in the radio itself as there are separate signal processors in it for FM and AM. However, the most common problem is a bad cable connection at the antenna or the radio, or a bad cable itself (corroded, pinched, broken wire inside).
.
A couple of simple things to check: if the antenna is in the window, it may have become disconnected from the cable at the window. If the antenna is body mounted, could be a bad cable connection at the base of the antenna, and in this case, the base of the antenna could be very corroded.
You could also check the antenna cable from end to end using a continuity checker. If you can't figure that out, you could just try replacing the cable (or body mounted antenna in that case).

Check your battery voltage. Is it showing at least 11-12 volts?If not try charging it or replace. Make sure you check the grounding strap.
Turn signal quit working but fuse is good
Hope you can read diagram? Did you check for voltage at turn fuse? Use a test light, goes hot with key on. Use a chassis ground when checking for voltage. The voltage wire from flasher to multifunction switch for turn is orange with black tracer, check that also. Let us know what you find?
I have a 1996 jeep grand cherokee and the power
Yes, there is, or yes, there are.
Usually fuses and circuit breakers for large capacity electrical components are found under the hood, not under the dash. Yours should be under a black plastic cover somewhere under the hood.
It should be labelled.
You might also have some bad wires or wiring harnesses causing this.
God bless your efforts.
