Its pretty simple problem. I turn my ac/heat on and my radio shuts off and i don't get any heat or air. nothing. if i turn my wipers on nothing happens except for my radio going off. just hard wired my blower motor and it worked. checked fuses. starts and runs fine other than that.
96 cherokee
sony radio
no aftermarket stuff other than radio

 

no body?

 

Check for a loose ground.

 

on ac or radio or?

 

checked every ground i could find

 

How long have you owned this XJ? Sounds very much like a few I have bought over the years that came from floods or had been under water can you see any evidence of that, or do you know what to look for?


Electrical problems were the major issues with them along with engine/trans that is why I bid them for body parts only for any resale the rest scrap metal.


Hope yours isn't one of them.

 

No haha I've had this thing for 3 years almost and its been fine. Now has it been though some water but noting major

 

What do those 3 circuits have in common? Ignition switch?

 

yes thats what I've narrowed it down to I'm just trying to figure out whats wrong with my ignition now...found some melted wires and a disconnected one
how ever in my spare time today i painted my dash green and glow in the dark and it came out very cool

 

if anyone can point me to a good ignition tread that would be awesome to btw haven't found anything good yet
