Car has new fuel pump/ gas tank/ battery/alternator (replaced over time with none of these items over two years old). car has had regular tune ups and oil replaced at every 5K
I think the PCM at fault but I am not to experienced with the many sensors the car has on-board. I wonder if a faulty sensor could be triggering the shut down and hope to lean on someone with more experience before dumping $300.00 on a new PCM
Any help or direction would be MOST appreciated. Thanks in advance for any possible suggestions to resolve my issue.

the other webisite i listed for you is the one i actually bought mine from so here is either one that has a 1994 pcm good luck
unhook the battery and remove the plug of wires use clectric cleaner to clean contacts put dilectric greese on contacts put back together should work
think you got antifreeze mix inside conector
I'm new here and am hoping to get some input to resolve my problem. My inline 6 started misfiring at 35 mph and the check engine light starts blinking on and off. I had the codes checked and all that was indicated was cylinders 1, 3 and 6 were misfiring. Upon resetting the light, the problem went away. Next time I drove it, the misfiring and blinking light came back. Any ideas or similar experiences?
Thanks.

So after all this I am at a loss here. Can anyone give me another idea on where to go from here? Again I have a running 5.9 to swap parts from and to check my parts with to be sure if its working...So please anyone have somewhere to go?
The only other thing I was thinking was a crankshaft ps..but is that any different from the camshaft ps? If so where is it located?
Thanks so much in advance,
Jeff...and son.
Thanks,

miles,and old PCM model number. They range from 165.00 to 250.00 and have
lifetime warrenty. They are plug and play,no trips to dealer etc and have phone
numbers if you need guidence
They wanted 1000.00 to replace. Furnished VIN,miles & PCM Mdl num to ebay dealer. Got it overnite,free shipping. Installed with same results. Saw msg here about Crankcase Position Sensor so I found the connector(located on right side of
engine near pan-block join by xmission ck tube) and disconnected conn. Gas lite out and showed correct gas,SKIM lite out,gauge and ck eng on but should be. Could now link to PCM.
New CPS @ AutoZone $46.00. Installed(A MAJOR PAIN because of space)-disc shift link & bracket first and small hands help. Started and runs fine(leave run for 10 plus minute so PCM reads all inputs)
Repair shop no can find in fac bull. All is well.Thanks to advice from forum
If ignition switch wasn't the problem, the online mechanic recommended flashing and/or replacing the PCM next.
If not your problem, try having the PCM (power train control module) reflashed or replaced (expensive).
That's my only advice re: online mechanic I paid and consulted. He indicated for my specific problem to do ignition switch first, and it seems to have worked.
It was a $45 part, and my husband replaced it in an hour. dealer wanted ~200.
Please Help !!
we first changed the fuel pump that was bad then looked like it had 4 lbs of mud in it. Cleaned the injectors checked for codes still same problem. Recently the distributer had been r&r new. code 320 replaced the Crank sensor. it started and ran better. But ruff idle, Then a noise started in the distributer but all of a sudden it was running better HUH? Changing the distrib in a few min. Maybe I should leave the noise alone. Auto Zone distrib hint hint... By a Chevy next time!
1. What are my rights (their obligations) since they are not honoring their warranty; they can't tell me when, if ever, they will be able to get the PCM Module to replace it; and I can't use the car in its inoperable condition as a trade-in on any other makes if I choose not to buy another jeep???? Note: the Jeep District Manager refuses to meet with me to discuss the situation.
2. At this point, if they can't get the part, and since no one at Chrysler corporate will help, how can I get them to buy me out at the Kelly Blue Book trade in value so I can shop for another vehicle make?

Hopefully you are still on this site. I have major problems with my 2001 JEEP Grand Cherokee. It first started a few months ago while driving, the JEEP would jolt as though it was trying to cut off. After a month of that it did start cutting off while driving and at stop signs/lights. I would have to put the car into neutral and restart- while driving!!! After about 2 months of this it would not start easily, or it would start and cut off within 10 seconds. After this it totally died and I had to replace the battery. So, after I replaced the battery the JEEP started, but still with the same problems listed above. Additionally, there are other things going on that I believe are related: the speedometer fluctuates up and down, the digital gas reading fluctuates- it will say 100 miles to empty then 0 miles to empty then 24 miles to empty and so on. Not sure if these are all related. Additionally, I had the altinator tested and it was 13.5 (kind of low).
The dealership ran diagnostics, but couldn't get a reading because they said "it would fix itself and no codes would come up."
Now they are telling me to replace the PCM. They want $900 total! I have already put so much into this JEEP to no avail. After reading some of these posts I am wondering if it may just be a coil? Please help. I need to know what questions to ask these jokers- like did they test for spark??? Please give me some ideas and maybe a list of questions to ask the dealer to see what they did to determine that it is the PCM.
Thanks!!!

Checking the battery connections everywhere, including the firewall or wherever they terminate may help. But I'm no mechanic.
My jeep is turning over great but wont start. One day my Girlfriend went to start it and it turned over Ok but the cells in the batt were kinda shot and it just did not want to start. I knew the batt was going so I replaced with new one and it turn over great and I'm waiting for it to start and nothing just turning over great. I went through the Haynes check list and went step by step and the only thing that I seem to have wrong so far is the wire harness going to the coil rail when you turn the key on position but not try to start it charges the line to 12.8 volts and then dies right back to zero.. The book said it should stay at the 12 volts and if not check the auto shutdown relay well I have looked and I can not find it I thought it was on the engine fuse block and then under the steering wheel located over the fuse box and none of those relays seem to go to the coil rail wire harness. Oh and if it matters the alarm was not working correct right after the batt was changed but seems to be working fine now. If any one has dealt with this or knows what to do or has another good reason I should be looking at something else I would be grateful for any thoughts you had or pointers I just cant afford to throw more money into this jeep and it's still has a loan on it so I could really use some help. Even catch me at my email. I don't care at this point burnzallmedia2k5@yahoo.com subject Edmunds jeep help..Thanks every one..Will also check in here.
