Bad solenoid i would guess. Not making a connection there. Any basic wiring and ignition switch problems should be alleviated by jumping the starter with a screwdriver. I would check the solenoid and starter brushes

sounds like you have a short to power inside your headlight/turn signal switch

to confirm you will need to gain access to the connector and check for voltage on the read/orange wire when using your turn signals

the only time you should have power there is when you switch to high beams or flash-to-pass

if you find voltage then replace the switch

Check the Section-8WL-Wiring-Diagrams-General-Information-XJ for fuse description and wiring diagrams about Jeep Cherokee.

I hope helps with this (remember rated this help) Good luck.

the switch itself is likely faulty.
I recommend removing the steering column covering, gain access to the switch and test the wiring with an ohmmeter. You will likely find that the switch is shorting out and will need to be replaced. If you choose to do so I can help you with that as well.

A common problem with a short in the mirror circuit is the wiring that comes from the body to the door. When you open the door you will see a wire loom between the door hinges. If the fuse blows when attempting to adjust either mirror it would be on the drivers side. If the fuse blows only when adjusting the right mirror check the loom on the passenger side. From bending back and forth it is common that one or more of the wires in the loom have broken and possible shorted together. That would be the first place I would start to look to find this problem.

Hello. Call around to all of your local auto parts stores and ask if they can get it and what the cost is. If they say that can't get it for you ask them where you can get one. These parts stores are all very helpful these days because they are all hurting for business. Regards, Joe

I have the same model Grand Cherokee Limited 5.2L V8, nice truck; for fuse panel description and locations, check page 7 and next.

bad pulse board on wiper motor take off the 3 screws and pull it out and replace

Your transfer case could be bad, or your front lock hubs need to be locked. Did you switch over while moving or were you static? If switched while moving, you definitely damaged the t/c.

it should be a filter the screen was not used in 94
unless it is a rare tranny not used much

CALL THE DEALER!!!!!!

intake and or head gaskets are leaking

check the dimmer switch under the column and also those bulbs have been known to blow at the same time on the low side so make sure the filimentts are not burnt out

it sounds like the power wire came off or broke from the ignition switch ,if you can test each wire with the column
cover off,you should be able to determine which one powers the fuse for turn signals

By switch, i assume that you mean inside the column. On a 1994, you have to remove the horn button (it just pulls off), then there are 3 phillips screws to remove. then remove the nut that holds the steering wheel on and use a puller to remove the wheel. then there is a plastic cover that will come off with a flat screwdriver. Next there is the steering column lock ring that has to come off. Remove the ring with a lock ring spreader (yes, you will need one) and remove the column locking plate and your there!!

For removal & installation...

1. Disconnect the battery ground.
2. Raise and support the vehicle on jackstands.
3. On 1989-91 models equipped with a 2.5L engine, it is necessary to remove the exhaust clamp and bracket, and the transmission brace rod before removing the starter.

1. Remove all wires from the starter and tag them for installation.

It may be easier to remove the solenoid wires after lowering the starter. Support the starter before removing the wires. DO NOT LET THE STARTER HANG BY THE WIRES.

1. On 4.0L, 5.2L and 5.9L engines, it may be necessary to remove the oil cooler line bracket and the exhaust brace.
2. Remove all but one attaching bolt, support the starter (it's heavier than it looks) and remove the last bolt.

1. Lower the starter from the engine.
2. If installing the original starter, inspect the pinion gear for damage or excessive wear.
3. Inspect the flywheel gear teeth for damage through the starter mounting hole.

To install:

1. Install the starter in the engine and hand-tighten the retaining bolts.
2. Engage any electrical connections that were removed from the starter.
3. Tighten the retaining bolts and engage any cooler lines, braces and brackets that were removed. Lower the vehicle.
4. Connect the negative battery cable and check for proper starter operation.

Sounds like a fusable link , some of the smaller wires that run from the positive post on the battery have a larger diamiter section about an inch long pull on both sides of these arias together, if it feels spungy then you need to cut out that section, go to the parts store and get another "fusable link" and replace it.

Not sure what engine you have, but my guess is it's a serpentine style belt that drives everything, including your water pump and power steering, and alternator as well as AC, all in one, that has broke. NO !! do not run the engine at all with that off, or you will ruin it, if damage hasn't been done already. Keep fingers crossed, and get that new belt on before you even put the key in the ignition.

you have a faulty ignition electrical switch. The ignition cylinder has a rod that goes down the steering colunm that connects to this switch

Do you have any kind of testing equipment like a digital voltmeter that has "amps" or current capability?
