Exclamation Cherokee central locking prob

I have no fob so i open the doors by flicking the cl switch on the drivers door pad. But when i do that it keeps blowing the fuse. Do i need a cl solenoid or is it likely to be a cross/broken wire cause?

If you use proper english, some people might be able to understand you. If it pops fuses then its probably a short

What is a CL switch?

It sounds like you have a short. I know it is a lot of work but you could disconnect each lock solenoid and try. If you find the problem one you can either replace it or leave it disconnected.

Thanks razor. CL is central locking and a fob is the door lock remote pad. Which i dont have. I would appreciate a photo of the interior fuse box if anyone has one for the 1995 cherokee. With a key to what does what. Thanks.
