SOURCE: 95 jeep grand cherokee laredo

the best way to look at this problem is with a12 volt test light then remove the ground cable from the battery turn every thing off inside the car close all doors and remove keys then connect testlight to battery cable and touch the test light point probe to the negitive battery post if test light lights up for more than three seconds and stays on you have draw on the system. dont panic it maybe just a glove box light or door switch. if suspect a circuit simply un hook it retest again .if you open a door that will make light test come on recheck all doors closed. if you still have test light on locate fuse box and remove one fuse at a time until test goes out while holding door switch in.when locate circut use wiring diagram to assist from ther. if the light does not light up check altenator output volt meter shoud be 13.2 -15.5 volts when running.

When staring my jeep it does not turn over and sounds like someone has a tiny hammer underneath the battery area, has new battery and alternater... HELP

its like a clicking noise, more then likely it is the starter, you can tap on the starter and see if it starts. First, I would try jumping the vehicle as a dead battery will do the same, even though its a new battery. Good Luck Tim

Jeep grand cherokee slow to start

THE THINGS YOU MENTIONED WON'T AFFECT CRANK SPEED. YOU'RE BATTERY IS PROBABLY ON THE WAY OUT THE DOOR. LOOK FOR CORROSION AND LEAKING BATTERYLIKE AROUND TERMINALS AND POSTS. BATTERY IS PROBABLY LOW ON CCA'S. NOW IF TALKING ABOUT WON'T START AND TAKES LONG CRANK TIMES IT CAN BE FUEL PUMP LOSING PRESSURE IN FUEL RAIL OR LACK OF FUEL PRESSURE CONSIDERING WHAT YOU MENTIONED. EVAP SOLENOID WILL USUALY SET A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND WONT AFFECT STARTING USUALLY UNLESS YOU HAVE A HUGE VACUUM LEAK

1997 Jeep Garnd Cherokee had battery go dead. Once boosted it runs for a few seconds and quits. Also gauges are not working even during the few seconds when it runs. Any ideas ????

Replace the battery if it is at least 4 years old. The computers will not power up if it does not have suficent voltage. put a new battery in it and check the charging system.

87 jeep cherokee tach climbs when ignition is turnd off. and flashers are slow

You say the alt. is dead. Why not replace it? Is the battery light on when you run the car?
If the alt. is bad, you are running all that equipment just on battery power.
