The most simplest things can drive a car owner mad check to see if you are getting gas pull gas cap off and have someone turn the key to on without starting some fuel pumps are loud enough you can most likely here it yourself listen for a brief humming sound that last only a few seconds that sound would be coming from your tank if you don't here it check your fuse for fuel system. if there good most likely you got a dead fuel pump and that is located in the tank

SOURCE: engine code 95 jeep grand cherokee lerado

12 is a battery disconnect within the last 50 start cycles and 55 means the end of the diagnostic cycle.  Basically the computer found nothing wrong. The 12 code may seem incorrect if you haven't disconnected the battery recently, but from my experience the 12 code shows up almost all the time regardless.

SOURCE: My 95 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo will not start.

cj2176 is correct, we need a lttle more info. Sounds like it will need a new fuel pump or something related to it. Since it starts on starting fluid it has compression and air and spark, just no fuel. Fuel pumps can just stop working while driving, and if not working obviously will not start. No caodes will be set for a fuel pump not working. If it cranks but does not start have someone pound on the bottom of the fuel tank with a fist or small rubber mallet lightly (don't damage the tamk) while your cranking the engine. If it starts, the fuel pump module in the tank is bad.

Testimonial: "great imformation. The Jeep is at a NEW shop as i type. I said Nothing to him except use the code reader please. "

SOURCE: Ticking/Tapping when car starts but goes away???

I had what sounds like the exact same problem. It was an exhaust leak from the left (driver's) side exhaust manifold. This engine has a history of the manifold bolts breaking and causing the exhaust leak. The engine is also used on some Dodge vehicles. It sounds like a tick and I almost mistook it for a bad lifter. I took it to the local Jeep dealer who confirmed the exhaust leak. I replaced the left manifold completely and replaced bolts/gaskets on both sides (left/right) and it fixed the problem. Be careful, as the dealer tried to gouge me on the price. You are looking in the ball park of $600 parts/labor. I got parts for $120 and it took the better part of a work day to do the job.

My jeep was idling pretty high and would come down go back up and cut off. I started it let it run for a little while went inside and it shut off. I got in drove it a bit if im going like 40 to 45 miles im...

Could be idle air sensor or throttle position sensor but first run the code check. On Jeeps you turn the key on and then off (without starting it) three times and leave in the on position on the fourth time. Code will appear on the monitor in front of the console. Write down the codes, the first one will be 12 if the battery has been unhooked before and the last one will be 55.
