Default 99 cherokee sport


Hey I’m new to the forum, and need help!!! I have my wife’s 99 Cherokee sport in pieces. Does anyone have a video link, or pictures of how to remove the evaporator coil from my car? I have most of the dash off, and I can see the box. I didn’t drop the steering column yet because I was hoping there was another way to get to it. Please Help or we will just be buying a new car if I cannot get this fixed.

Hey Ol"Blue I have a request for you -

I've got a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited. I've ran UV detection through the AC unit as well as just the red leak detection, and found nothing under the hood. I've got a slow leak every time i recharge the system, and after draining the water out of the "hole" my car still smelled like gym socks.

I'm fairly certain then that the start of my problem is the evaporator. If you or anyone has a manual on how to get to it for a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee that would be awesome. I'm planning on spending a weekend fixing it and want to have all the tools and instructions before I begin.

Thanks!
