Jeep Cherokee XJ Instrument Problems

This video was one of my first uploads, so I'm sorry about the length.
The signal wire or cluster appears to be the source of the problem. I've traced all the grounds and power supplies with no problems located. In my next video, I'll remove the cluster and see if we can locate any broken solder joints or bad breadboards.

Okay . Your 42 min video proved you were unable to isolate and fix the problem .Thanks.

I had the same problem. It is a ground issue. reground the black with green stripe to the body just below the windshield. I used a splice connector so I did not cut the wire.

Bryon Hills a ground issue? I was getting no power so I connected it to other source of power that i saw in a youtube video

...its been 2 years now ... what are the UPDATE results ? Reconnecting the main plug behind the instrument cluster with superglue fix the gauges to now work after every fuse proved to be good OR did this not work and still have no working instrument gauges ?

[@miomine3527]

Would you happen to know where the fuse for the 98 jeep cherokee is located at.. For the instrument panel

[@wolfeatsheep163]

Number 17 under the steering wheel

Stupid lhead light switch is too big for the hole.
Any tips?

[@freedavidson7069]

Thanks for the video tried the same thing and it worked

[@deedolla3461]

Can a bad instrument cluster cause speed sensor problems?

[@seccionaurea5272]

Hi Brendon!
Nice video. I have the same problem. All gauges are dead and airbag light is on and the XJ is runing fine.
In your video: 29:46 ... what are you doing? And how are you doing it?
How can i check the airbag control module is working fine?
If you could help me with this issue, it would be very appreciated by me.
Thanks Brendon!!😊

Unplug your airbag module land clean the connector
