SOURCE: 2004 Jeep Wrangler TJ won't

if your jeep has a harder time starting when its warm as well, i would say the throttle position sensor is bad, or dirty. mine does tah same thing. i just live with it. its cheaper than replacing it.

SOURCE: how to replace a jeep tj fuel tank?

I would be really careful with doing this repair as this is very dangerous. You need to relieve the fuel pressure by pulling the fuel pump fuse and starting the truck. Drain the tank with a siphon pump. Remove any exhaust or other parts that are in the way, loosen the straps and support the tank with a floor jack and a block of wood. There are several hoses, and a few wire connectors to disconnect and you may want to replace those hoses while you're down there. Once you put the new tank in, reconnect the electrical and hoses, raise the tank and strap it back up. Put anything else back together you took off the truck.
Personally, I would take this in to get fixed as this is dangerous work (I did mention that). I you do this anyway, use your head and buy a proper container to hold the gas in , as well as jackstands and a class "B" fire extinguisher. Disconnect the battery and don't smoke or use a drop light under the car, and I will not accept responsibility for this.

SOURCE: location of ac drain to try and stop wet floor board on 98 tj?

The problem is with the evaporator drain. There is a, (usually soft flexable), tube that drains condensation from the evaporator to the outside. It is located in the passenger compartment, under the dash. The hose has, (A)-became disconnected from the evaporator. (B)- Has gotten a kink in it. (C)-Became clogged, causing the evaporator to overflow into your passenger floorboard. Your vehicle probably has some covers over these components, you will likely have to remove. Locate the hose, it typically drains just behind and inside your right front wheel. It may be concealed behind a kick panel, or may go thru the floor or firewall. You must find it and follow it to the evaporator and make sure it is not clogged or kinked and is properly connected to the evaporator.

1: check all fuses first... (SOP)
2: then remove the blinker loads from the timer.

see WIRING, (end)

chapter 8w, page 51-4 shows the switch. (complex it is)
note how brake and turns are shared, resources. (blub elements)
now 8w-52-6
see the flasher module.
see C305 pin 2, any load on that pin will cause it to flash.(inside)
that would be any switch in the combo switch stuck on.

2001 jeep wrangler. Brake lights won't work but

Check the brake control switch situated just above the break pedal arm under the dashboard. Could be a wire loose or unplugged or the switch itself could be faulty

Blinkers,hazzard lights,tail and brake lights ,dash lights ,i put foot on brake and you can see the left blinker light flash on when I step on brake but the fuse is already blown ,and it seems when I use...

It does sound as though the trailer connection is the source of the problem, check to see if the wiring has been resting on the exhaust pipe and melted through, shorting the wires. Also check if it is squashed or damaged anywhere. Failing this you may have to pull the trailer connector apart and see if the wires have come out inside and are touching, this can happen if the trailer connector is pulled hard.

When pressing the brake pedal non if my 3 brake

Use a voltmeter and check at the switch that you have voltage before and after the swictch. If you have it before and after switch. Have someone step on the brake and check to see if there is voltage on the wire at the light. I there is then there is a bad or loose ground. If there is no voltage then there is a break in the wire from the swicth to the lights.

1998 jeep wrangler brake lights will not work, fuse appears to be fine. How do you remove switch?

I used to have a 98 wrangler, I had a problem with the brake lights at one point and found that it was do to the blinker switch! This was a little bit of a project to replace it. Steering wheel had to come off and steering column comes off and the whole blinker switch is one piece.

All tail lights in the 98's goes through the blinker switch. I am not saying this is your issue for sure! But it sounds like it.

98 jeep tj, dash light/taillights/licence plate light don't work

disconnect head lights, and replace fuse. Then turn the light back on to see if it blow a fuse again. if not, plug on light in at a time. You might have a bad headlight???? then unplug that one if nothing happens. Then plug the other one in. It could also be a bad taillight bulb. I have had bad tail light bulbs. Do all of them, one at a time.
