Sorry no pic,but it is some sensor or switch under the battery.Built into the tray.I am planning on building a new tray to hold a bigger battery and i was wondering if i need to keep this part.So what is it.

 

oh thats one of theses

 

Battery temperature sensor. Yes you need it. It's commected to your PCM and you'll get a Check Engine Light without it.

 

seriously?

what years are these in?

I'm upgrading to a 95 xj harness engine trans etc. and don't have that tray...

 

Seriously. I'm not sure what year XJ's had them other thab 97+.

 

I lurned meself sumtin noo today!

 

I think they are in 96+ XJs.

 

Sounds like 96+ XJs. My 91 doesn't have that one, TG. That's about the only useless XJ upgrade mine doesn't have....

 

me 2 }:O) . Frank, you always seem to amaze me with your knowledge ...Tj

 

Knowledge? Me?!?!? No way hoser! It's all about the bookmarks.

 

I don't have one thank god.

 

My 98 sport didn't have one and i have had the battery try out plenty of times before she got wrecked.

 

Yes it did. It's in the bottom of the tray and damn near impossible to see.

 

dun dun dun, another one bites the dust!

Frank and his amazing big book o jeep loredom. It's the awesome knowledge that brings us together.

 

My tray was just a piece on flat metal bent to fit with holes in it. Either some PO had takin it out or it was some where else but it want on the tray.

I wish I had pics to show but I never thought to take pic of the tray.
