Best place to start is checking your fuses.

SOURCE: I have a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. All of a sudden my power windows, passenger side mirror, and sunroof all stopped working. Also, I can only lock my drivers side door with the power lock swi

All of these functions are controlled by a central electronic module referred to as the BCM (body control module), you must have the dealer scan this module and run it through an active test to see what is wrong, it may be a defective BCM causing this, but that needs to be programmed and is not a plug and play part.

Check the dash for proper grounding and also check the door harness where it passes through the boot for breaks or shorting. The door may be completing the body ground through the latch.

Keyless remote 1996 jeep grand cherokee laredo programing

Instructions
  1. Programming the First Transmitter
    • 1

      Unlock all of the Jeepicon1.png Grand Cherokee's doors and open the driver's side door. Keeping the door open, lock it using the manual lock on the door itself.

    • 2

      Put the manual key into the ignition and switch it to the "On" or "Run" position, whichever applicable, without starting the engine.

    • Sponsored Links

    • 3

      Point the remote at the receiver (located by the little bulb on the caricon1.png ceiling) and hold down the "Lock" button for up to 5 seconds.

    • 4

      When the driver's side door unlocks, you know the remote has been programmed correctly. If you are only programming one remote, jump to the next step. If not, manually re-lock the driver's side door and repeat steps 5 and 6 using each remote you would like to program and then continue.

    • 5

      Turn the key to the "Off" position and turn the ignition on immediately. This must be done within 20 seconds of programming the last remote. You're finished!

Could be a fuse, but to be sure take it into a shop and have them run a diagnostic on it. If they ask you to pay, call another shop. Or you can take it over to Auto Zone and they'll run one for you for free. If they can't tell you anything you'll have to bring it to a shop where they have more sophisticated diagnostic tools.

Dashboard Gauges stopped working on '96 Jeep

If you wired anything into the fuse panel, check those fuses first. You can test all of them with either a test light or meter without removal. Just probe into the cavity at each end of the back of the fuse. Sometimes it matters which side of the fuse you used to supply power (dosen't make sense but I had that happen a few weeks ago). If fuse is not blown take power from the other end of same fuse and see if it works. If you did blow a fuse, try another connection source. I can't tell you which fuse because I don't know what you tapped into.

1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo Electrical issues.

the button that pushed in when you close the door could be bad its literally like a $10 part and plugs in and is only held in with one screw. My interior lights used to flash on and off and i replaced that and now good as new, but you would need to figure out which door is doing it by pushing the button in manually
