    Hey Steve, I have been looking up codes all day til 30 minutes ago. I have learned a tremendous amount by all the forums. I suspected all along that the problem was the Security System, but the Key method wouldn't work, until I figured out that Fuse 6 & 7 were not even in, so even tho Security System was tripped, it would not do its light blinking thing, so I put two fuses in, then the car I guess was able to recognize the Security System was Tripped, then One Turn of the Passenger Side Key and like Magic, lol, it started right up.
    Thank you for responding, I'm sure I will need this help in the future.
    Thanks Steve

SOURCE: Very rough idle on 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited Edition V8

If you haven't changed the plugs or had the fuel system cleaned, now would be a good time to do it. The number 1 culprit for rough idles is dirty injectors or plugs. You can try an injector cleaner in a can (or bottle) for under $10 and see if it helps, and then work from there. If there isn't any improvement then if you are able to, check the plugs for any gunky buildup and if you find a bad plug, make sure you replace them all (or have them replaced) at the same time.

What is diagnostic code 22 for a 1994 Jeep Cherokee grand limited

That code is for the engine coolant temperature sensor. "...input above maximum acceptable voltage." I would try a new temp. sensor. If that doesn't fix it, you may need to have an engine scanner hooked up, and see what the sensor is sending to the computer, and go from there.
A bad coolant temp. sensor can cause hard starting like your symptoms.

94 jeep grand cherokee. starts,idle. throw warmup. as soon as I touch the excellerator let up the rpm drop & engine stalls.

Most low idle speed problems on these engines are due to a faulty idle air control valve but since you state the idle will go up and return to idle then i would say it is working properly i think you have a throttle body coking problem ( dirt and grit accumulates around the butterfly valve in the throttlebody ) to fix this simply remove the fresh air hose from the throttlebody and open the throttle all the way up use a clen rag and wipe clean you may use a solvent such as B12 on the rag but dont use too much 1_4_2013_4_54_06_am.jpg

2000 Grand Jeep Cherokee Limited, V 8. Just died at a red light. We got push it to the side of the road and 2-3 mins it started. This has happen 3-4 times. What could be the problem?

Right after it stalls (and you are in a safe place) Turn the key on and listen for the fuel pump to come on (in the tank). If you don't hear it, likely it is going bad. When they do that, the pump gets hot and binds...after it cools off it starts working again.
If you can hear the pump, chances are that the crank position sensor is failing. The symptoms are nearly identical.

I'm trying to find out what the code 12 means for a 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited?

Code 12 on any Chrysler or Jeep vehicle simply indicates the battery has been disconnected. Most of the time this code is induced when someone has disconnected the battery as a means to clear trouble codes. This code will clear itself after several successful starts
