If your "Check Gauges" light is on, the light means pretty much whay it says...CHECK GAUGES! One or more of your gauges is/are reading outside of normal operating range. You could be having an overheating problem (Temperature gauge near or in the red) You could be having a charging system problem (Battery or Amp gauge reading in the "discharge" or "low voltage" area.) You could be nearly out of fuel (Fuel gauge reading near empty) Your oil pressure could be low (OIl Pressure gauge reading very low)....You have to look at your gauges to find out what is going on that is not normal.

SOURCE: 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Lardo misfiring

You say you changed the cam sensor. A1391 code is a crank sensor on the top of the trans. bell housing.

SOURCE: oil pressure gage at zero

I have the same problem,an erratic reading on the oil pressure gauge.I have been in touch with Chrysler Jeep (USA) and this is a common problem.The oil pressure sensor needs to be replaced this is on the oil pump by the oil filter.I changed mine and no more problems.

There could be two problems here:
1. That buoy floating tank is not working properly
2. That the electrical system that fails to submit the dashboard.

Good luck... and remember rated this help.

SOURCE: Jeep wont start.

Try squirting a little carb cleaner into intake while cranking. if engine lights and stalls then you know there is spark, then look to the fuel system...you said that fuses look ok...check them with volt meter to verify. check fuel pump relay...then check pump...voltage with meter and audible noise. If there is running voltage at the pump and no noise pump, isn't working.

My jeep grand cherokee tells me to check gages when i turn on my jeep on but i dont have the manual to check what are my gages

The instruments on your dashboard are your gauges. Checking them means to make note of abnormal readings that indicate a potential failure or an actual problem. Oil pressure should be above 20psi (usually between 30 and40) charge rate should be around 13.5 volts and temp warmed up and running should be around 200-210 degrees (f). If anything reads much differently you have something that needs to be checked by your shop.
