Am i missing a part
Had a friend come look at my jeep and he pointed out I might be missing a part at the top drivers side of the firewall. You can see the wires are cut and spliced like there bypassed. Here's a pic. And it's an 87 Cherokee 4.0

I have an 87 4.0 I6
I will take a pic tmrw and post up what I find - see if we cant get you on the right track.
Hopefully by noonish.
As well, mine only came with 1 fan so it might just be an "added option" thing that we didnt get.

so shroud around mechanical fan. could you install a toggle switch to the aux fan so it would run manually or is it hooked up to some sensor or computer that if re wired would F up a bunch of stuff.

I have AC and only 1 fan - but i have a fan shroud
but my ac dont work - R12 coolant - im not going to bother to recharge it either - i have 4x70 air
Here are some pictures of my back firewall - if they arent large enough send me a pm with your email address and I will email the originals to you.
But it looks like your tag is the same - so that is what you are missing.

Is that some sort of ECU. Is yours a auto or manual. Maybe that's for the transmission controller? Mine is a manual
