probably clogged up with junk and it's being muffled. Either try to clean it out or snag a "new" ones off a JY XJ.

Right behind the front bumper. There's one on each side. Unbolt them, remove the wiring clip, and clean them out with some electrical cleaner (spray can) and q-tips.

Lol ok ok I crawled under there found them unbolted them and unhooked them they both sounded full of water I brushed off the electrical tabs hooked everything back up and still nothing only a minor difference, and only the passenger side has any sound coming from it I looked at them and couldent really see how they would come apart without breaking them one was a Bosch looked stock and the other said 94 cherokee on it in yellow paint so I'm guessing it came from a salvage yard
