So here's one for you!

Asked by Jesse Oct 06, 2009 at 03:37 AM about the 1996 Jeep Cherokee

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a '96 Cherokee and for some reason my selector switch that decides if the heat goes to the floor, dash, etc. has stopped working. I can move it to any position and it's stuck on defrost. If I climb under the dash I can manually move the motors but if I let go they snap back into position defrost. I know they are vacuum operated but I don't know where to look either for a broken or fallen off line. Anybody have a good idea? Please don't say tear apart the dash *prays*!!! Thanks for any help.

Vac hose comes out thru the fire wall near the heater core connections and goes to the brake booster connection. Look for it cracked, broken or disconnected. Let me know if you need more info

1995 Jeep Cherokee OverheatingHello all,Got a slight over-heating problem with my Jeep. Actually I noticed this from about 2 years ago and it's still the same today.When I'm stuck in bad traffic, or sit at a red light for too long, the temperature gauge would slowly creep upwards over the middle marker toward the third marker. I have not had it sitting idle for so long that it went into the last red region.But as soon as I start driving again, the temperature drops back down below just under the halfway mark.To me it sounds like an airflow problem, i.e. the engine is not getting enough airflow when it's sitting idle.Could this be the fan? Or a clogged or dirty radiator?I see two fans. The fan on the right always spins. The fan on the left does not spin when the engine is started. Are they both suppose to spin?Thanks in advance for any advice.Regards, 2 Answers
