i found a thread on here and it seems to be the shift solenoids so ill start there but does this sound right

I had the same problem on mine and just changes the whole TCM (transmission control module) and it solved all my problems

ok ill look around for one of those and i just drove it really hard and it didnt do it again it seems that it only does it after being on the highway and just checked the tranny fluid and its pretty dirty so flush and fill next weekend and i just might replace the shift solinoids while the pan is off i hope this works

greengoblin

well didnt make it that far drove great so far till today and had to manually shift it home about 20 miles on back roads drained it and the oil was dark so new fluid and filter still trying to find the solenoids so hopefully ill have them by this weekend and ill be good to go

When you refill it, add some of the Lucas Trans Fix.. I had a 97 ZJ and had a problem with the Trans Slipping and shifting bad, replaced the fluid and added a bottle of Lucas and it never had a problem again. I have used it in many of my Jeeps and it always helps. I have recommended it to other people with trans problems and it has fixed theirs too.

Getting same 2 codes on mine, plus a P1698(which sounds like may be just result of other 2 codes from what I've read online).

Did you find the problem and if so, what did you fix/replace?

I'm thinking either TCM or solenoids as well. Anyone know what year Cherokee TCM's will be compatible with my '97 if I go looking for one at salvage yard?

Saw a remanufactured TCM online but want $404 for it and I don't have that kinda cash at moment.
