I'd try pouring water harshly towards the windshield, (outside, of course). Next, do the same with driver's side door. If this fails, try again with a water hose. Remember, when it's raining, there's much pressure, especially if you're driving. I would really try to get water to leak into vehicle, it would be much easier with a friend's assistance. I hope this helps!

POSTED 2 TIME, BUT THIS ONE LONGER. read other post answer now.?your engines stalls! if engine stalls so does car.BUT DOES IT RESTART EASY,??????Does the restart, starter sound fast and normal or weakcan you prevent the stall with fast right foot action?ever get a tuneup in last decade?most stalls are caused by 50 things.top of list is MISFIRING.http://jeepdied.com/Misfire101.html

car came new with 2 fobs lost the other one,,,?????? battery dead. fob switch, dirty, clean it , google how,no lack of facts there. why not use other fob. if you lost your last fob. is $350 a good thing for a refit. if car runs you can get a new fob at any locksmith in my town drive in, say,, , hey,mista this fob funky. if car his SKIM (IMMO) and you loose fob, car will be useless. with one fob. read this operators guide for new fobs some you can make, mine takes 3 good ones. http://www.jeep.com/en/owners/manuals/ page 15 to wit Customer Key Programming You can program new keys to the system if you have two valid keys by doing the following: 1. Cut the additional Sentry Key Transponder blank(s) to match the ignition switch lock cylinder key code. etc... so for this car always have 2 keys,make 1 more and can make up to 8 total keys. 2 day one and 6 more by you, for life of car or my key shop can reset all mine to zero keys and reprogram from 0. and i just did on my WK jeep.

If it makes a weird screeching noise than it is possible the lock actuator has gone bad. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

Could be the crank sensor. Located between the engine and transmission. On the drivers side. Have to pull it from under the truck. It's a pain, but not impossible. Have the codes read.

press it down and the latch closes. and locks. on all jeeps. if not the latch system is failing. (i own 2010) and JK 08. the FSM covers this, read that yet>? posted 100s of times see WK jeeps? http://www.morris4x4center.com/knowledge-base/index.htm?utm_source=cj#service

Incorrect 4th gear ratio means that it needs an overhaul of the transmission to find the faulty part

the latch is broken/ get it serviced.

jeep dot come had the book. get it before it drops off, next year, 2004 is oldest (now) http://www.jeep.com/en/owners/manuals/

life mode (like?) lope? (LIMP?) my guess, this is an automatic transmission question. and is no longer shifting correctly , right? no codes?, does that mean the silly dash display ?(its useless ! and just a toy) or USING a real scan tool (yes, only this really works! ) how long, well (soon and now) , my guess is you are not using a real scan tool so are blind to all codes. (for sure the speed sensor will be showing trans in wrong gear, for SURE) use an innvova 3160 scan tool and see them all, you can not diagnose cars, with out a scan tool (real) sorry its not going to happen.. (unless wild luck happens ,rare) if the trans sticks in 3rd gear. the TCM would be in fact storing many fault error codes called DTCs. and this is what we call limphome mode. if the transmission brain sees gross errors it has no recourse. it must limit gears. (should be obvious why) (if not obvious, imagine going to 1st gear at 90 mph) bam! rent a tool? buy one? barrow one? or get car scanned at any shop on earth, all autoshops can do this. All ASE shops for sure can.... all. do. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Equus-3160-Innova-ABS-Professional-Diagnostic-Code-Scanner/14644662 have you checked transmission levels yet, using the book not guessing and overfilling like many do? and check fuses?

no engine stated? size, cylinder count? this is covered in the FSM, book the factory service manual. id bet pulling the engine is more easy. (for sure the 4L) id did this, one time by jacking up the engine, mounts pulled. (on a bet) and removed pan. 4.0L inline 6 . to get pan free , had to pull the pump blindly! (hard trick) now the book the WK jeep (05 up) its all here. for free, (I have the pay for links too, ask) http://www.jeep4x4center.com/knowledge-base/index.htm?utm_source=cj#service see front axle/diff, R&R

Hopefully your vehicle will have a drain plug in the bottom of the fuel tank*: remove this & drain the fuel. With the plug still removed flush about 5-10 litres of fuel thru by putting in thru the tank filler hole as usual. Replace the drain plug and put a FULL tank of fuel in (this will dilute any residue as much as possible) *In the case of no drain plug the fuel tank will need to be removed & fuel drained out thru the filler neck, drain fuel, replace tank & procede from the 'put a FULL tank of fuel section of this instruction. If the vehicle has been started with the bad fuel remove the fuel filter. If the vehicle has an electric fuel pump* (more modern vehicles ie. Post 1985 [some vehicles still had & still do have mechanicle fuel pumps]) turn the ignition on with the fiter not in place, vthis will flush fuel thru the fuel lines pushing out the bad/old fuel. Take care as the fuel will be under a fair bit of pressure & "sqirt' out. *If it is a mechanicle pump this can not be done in this way. Replace the fuel filter with a new one. Bleed the fuel system & start the vehicle. Allow the vehicle to idle for 10-15mins before going back to your usual driving. All shld now be ok but it is a good idea to routinely inspect the fuel system for leaks over the nxt 10 000km or six months (wich ever is earlyest) as in the case of puting petrol in diesel or diesel in petrol the different rubber and plastic items (such as 'o' rings) can begin to deteriate & leak in wich case they will require replacement.

The answer to this question depends on several factors such as: Whether the towbar was a factory fitted unit fitted during pre-delivery, a genuine brand unit or an aftermarket unit & who, where & when it was fitted... The majority of towbars & the assosiated wiring out there are simply wired in to the rear tail light circuits such as:

• Trailer stop lights wired to vehicle stop light circuit in eighther of the rear tail lights.
• Trailer park lights wired to vehicle park light circuit same side as the stop lights, as above.
• Trailer number plate lights wired to vehicle park light circuit same side, as above.
• Trailer reverse lights (if fitted) wired to vehicle reverse light circuit same side, as above.
• Trailer left hand indicator wired to vehicle left hand indicator light circuit
• Trailer right hand indicator wired to vehicle right hand indicator light circuit.

This means that if fitted in this manner (as the majority are) the corrosponding vehicle light fuse will affect the trailer lights unless the is an inline fuse fitted to each single circuit (which cld be blown). This is very uncommon & wld be a costly way to do it... In some more modern cars that came from the factory (not the dealership ie. pre-delivery) with the tow bar fitted as standard equipment it is possible that there cld be a sepparate little fuse box or section in the main fuse box (the position of the fuse box/es shld be in your owners manual usually Under the bonnet, under the dash or behind font foot kick panels, & if you dont have an owners manual for your vehicle they are usually available to buy an aftermarket version or these days on the internet & often downloadable for free or @ a small charge). All the best & I hope this is of some help... Referances: Me, I am an auto mechanic.

check for oil level in the transmission9over full or not enough will cause this fault check condition of the oil and if not as new then change it and clean the filter while the pan is off then have the bandss and clutch pack adjusted to remove the possibility of slippage check for engine operating temperature as the transmission oil cooler is in the tank of the radiator and if the engine is running too hot then the transmission oil will also be too hot.

Make sure you have the right key. Check and see if it works in another door or the rear hatch. If it works you could have something rusted or sticking. Does it go all the way in? Will it turn freely both ways? If so then something could be broken inside. If it does not go all the way in or sticks try spraying some WD40 or rust out, or penetrating oil into the key slot. If that does still not work you will have to take the inside door panel off. Hope this helps.

Have you checked for spark to the spark plugs?
