My 2002 Jeep Cherokee has been stalling (otherwise running fine). I assumed it was a fuel issue and put gas tank cleaner in hoping to solve the problem (or at least help) since I do not drive it but maybe ten to twenty miles a week. Once the weather got warmer, it was stalling much less, or not at all. Suddenly, it was stalling and stalling more than it ever had, and before I could get it to a shop, it COMPLETELY died and lost ALL power as if the battery died. I tried to charge the battery twice and still nothing. I am wondering if I blew a fuse since I had to restart it a lot in a very short period of time. Any suggestions? I would love to get it running so I do not have to tow it to a shop, or better yet, repair the entire issue myself. Thank you so much for reading and posting. It is MUCH appreciated.

welcome to CF!

It sounds to me like the Crankshaft Position Sensor was starting to fail and then finally did. I'm not saying this is a sure thing, but that's my impression. IDK how handy you are, but they are a PITA to change. It's hard to tell if all those short trips had anything to do with it.
