PLS HELP..97Gr Ch,still the locks keep clicking nonstop.disconnected actuator. Chngd melted master swtch. Checked fuses,wires thru & to drive door.WTF ELSE IS THERE? CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. LOL

This can be a possible issue with the part commonly called the BCM or Body Control Module. The operation of the locks is you guessed it computer controlled. I suggest you see the dealer and have the BCM scanned with a special tool to see what is going on.

Fast Blinker

Usually a fast turn signal means that there is a light out. You should probably check all of your lights, including back-up lights, and turn signals. If there is one out then replacing the burnt out bulb should fix the problem.

I have a 97 grand cherokee larado and when I shut it off it won't start back up for a few mins..then it fires up...is there a kill switch on it or something else wrong possibly

No kill switch. You may have a fuel pump pressure issue, it may being losing pressure after shut down due to a faulty fuel pump check valve. Do a fuel pressure leakdown test, start the engine with a fuel pressure test gage hooked to the test port on the fuel supply rail to the fuel injectors, looks like a tire valve. Start the engine and run it and check for leaks at the pressure port to the test gage, repair as needed, once you are sure the test gage is leak free shut the engine down, if the fuel pressure bleeds down very quickly then you need to replace the fuel pump.

1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo interior dome lights come on sporadically, usually when road is bumpy but not always. Then lights and door locks go on and off repeatedly.

so if the car worked perfect at the dealer ( i bet it did) then he is a crook because, is not god like.? really how can you fix a car that tests ok. you tell me... Ill bow in reverence. find a shop that can drive it for a week and fix it. it has to fail for them to find it. diagnosis is that, using tools to find a live failure. i could fix it but it might take me 1 to or more days work driving and with my data logger attached, to find the culprit.

Where does the fuel pump wiring harness ground itself on a 1997 jeep grand cherokee?

With fuel pump module connector loose, use a test lite connected to battery voltage, touch the black wire terminal, if the lite comes on, the ground is good enough to turn on the test lite. I wasn't sure of engine liter size, but, ground is usually black. As far as physical location of G300, I don't know? I have had good luck with redundant grounds. 26349580-d1zrb5ammg2pdepturmtcrey-4-0.jpg

Graphic display panel not working

when the graphic display is not working, three things might be occurring: 1. You disconected the battery for a long time, so when you finally reconnect it, the capacitors inside the graphic display module take some time to charge. After that time passes (an hour or so), the display will lit again. 2. The graphic display module is not being energized. Unplug the device and test its power supply. If there is no adecuate power or ground the device will not operate. 3. The capacitors are too old. If that is the case, just open the unit and replace the capacitors for new ones. They are cheap. just make sure the new capacitors are rated as the previous ones.

Why does my 1997 jeep cherokee laredo suddendly stops and wont restart for awhile

It might very well be that the idle air control is failling. Its coil might be heating up to much during use and so it stops working until it cools back.
