Martin you are a blessing to all jeep grand cherokee owners I'm pretty sure they are saving alot money on there repairs thank you so much your awesome.
Thanks 👍 I appreciate that.
I think I'd opt for individual LED's in their original spots simply because it's surely more optimally placed for ensuring evenly distributed lighting, but also, I don't know that I want to rely on adhesive to keep those lights in place. But the big takeaway here is that you marked the positives for us, that's a huge help!
I have seen them use glue guns to patch those in place. Seems to work and stand the test of time.
Thanks for the video. I really appreciate your level of detail. When working on projects like this I try for OEM look and not after market. I see that you do as well but you introduced the LED strips which enhanced the project but kept the OEM look. Great job! Will be tackaling this project on my daughter's 2005 Grand Cherokee using your LED strip method.
I'm glad I saw this vid, my bulbs have blown as well, Thanks Martinbuilt now I can do mine...
once again excellent work Martin..a great piece of work.
this is genius, and I think i'm going to attempt this over the christmas weekend!
keep the videos commng! i always enjoy watching
Good job man ,I like you're work allways ..
Excellent Job Martin ! Regards from GC WJeeper over seas
Thank you for marking positives then getting a nice shot of it.. this will save time when I do my led swap
We're your positives the same as his
This is great. Can't wait to try it myself.
Everyone of my friends who is a WJ enthusiast knows exactly who you are and we were all subscribed to your channel even before we knew we had jeeps in common. Thanks for all the info! You posted tons of the info years ago and I still reference you all the time!
Thank you so much for the comment.I really appreciate it and it inspires me to go out to the garage and do more.
Good job on the upgrade. I like the modern solutions to age old problems. I have been hating the dim lights on my Mustangs since the 90's. With the modern LED's and HID lights I can finally see the gauges at night. I even turn them on so I can see them in the day time too. They get washed out in the shadows.
Thank you. I appreciate that I'm glad you liked it and found it helpful.
another great how to video! any chance you plan on doing a video on the bulbs for our center console where our shifters are??
رائع رائع رائع يسلمو اديك :)
Very good video 🤚
Hey I did that for mine works perfect also for the heated seat switches I soldered 2 LED bulbs and it works perfect
That's good to hear I'm glad you found it helpful.
Good tip for the heated seat switch.
Yeah I did it to the two heated seat switches works perfect
I'm glad it worked out for you. 🙂
Great JOB!
Thanks?
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
The switch where you turn on the ac/heater sunk down in my Cherokee does anyone know the why of?
very good job~
Thank you 😊
Hello Martin, will you have any improvement for the air conditioning blower?
Man, that is really nice fixup, and I am doing this soon on my '04. Funny to see no beard, and no gray hair.
Yeah that's what the years will do to you. Thank you for watching.
Its possible to put led in pure white color? Thanks
Got any videos on fixing the shifter lights? Mine works half the time.
Good job! You might want to invest in a solder sucker to unsolder PC components next time.
Yeah I have looked at those.
Or copper braid. It absorbs the solder when heated at the point where you are trying to remove solder. I like this method better than a solder sucker but both work.
Have you ever done the same thing on the instrument cluster? My '04 Cruise indicator is not lighting, cruise works fine, I presume a similar fix will happen.
wow... i was hoping to see it fixed the correct way.
Hey there. love your videos! quick question - I have a laredo with the standard black gauges. Do you know if I need blue green bulbs to match the stock colors? or white, assuming the color overlay is built in
go with white bulbs.
Martin, do you by chance know the specs of the button's status LEDs? The yellow lights that tell you if power is on/off for the recirc/AC/defrost? I'm working on a project for rebuilding the broken buttons and decided to test the status lights as well and I think they may be lower than 12V because I think I burned them out with my 12V power supply in my testing.
yes those bulbs are lower than 12 volts, I don't know the actual voltage.
Great video, Thanks for this. Getting organized to do this on my 04 limited , same unit.
I do have a question about the LED lights. I found an LED strip that I'm wanting to get, but just before ordering it, I noticed that it said they were for 12v, 10A. Would you happen to know the AMP draw of the LED lights you used in yours, or if the 12v in the climate control unit would be able to do a 10A. The LED strip I want is 16ft. Is the 10A required to light the whole 16 ft, or would the climate control unit supply enough Amps to run a couple strips of 6 LED's and a couple strips of 3 LED's?
Had almost talked myself into just a bulbs replacement, then googled the bulbs and Chrysler wants $40.38 for just the 1 bulb for the heater control knob. lol Will definately be doing the LED upgrade, just need to know about this 10A thing. Surely it's wouldn't take 10A to ren a couple strips of 6 LED's?
Thank you. I'm glad you liked it and found it helpful.
I doubt very much that that 16-foot strip of LED lights draws 10 amps, and you're gonna only be using a few LEDs anyway.
sorry can someone tell me the name/type of the original bulbs? I would like to replace them without putting the led. Thank you
Do any of those climate control units for that year include a digital thermostat?
Good to know how to best disassemble the HVAC control/display. Think I'm gonna go with the separate bulbs, each soldered into the proper place.
It really irritates me that Jeep/Chrysler didn't make the board with replaceable bulbs that just twist into a socket or tiny peanut bulbs.
I'm glad you found it helpful thank you for watching.
Where do I purchase these bulbs or these LED strips from?
I got them from eBay
Is there a way to swap from AZC to MTC control panels?
not that I know of.
I followed your instructions to a T and I installed led bulbs instead of strips and they work until I plug the top plug in all the way till it clamps . If I barely put the top connector in they light up if I plug it all the way in they won't work everything else does just not the lights I put in ..I tried it with the bottom clamp in and out as well... please help!!!! And let me know what to do
are you sure the bulb is installed correctly? Maybe it is reversed.
@@martinbuilt I plugged the circuit board back in and they light up but wont work if I push the top connector peice in all the way till it clicks then they wont work but the ac stuff will and the little bulbs that are behind the 3 little buttons
I wanna know how you got a double din head unit in your Jeep. Lol. I have a 99 and I highly doubt I could put one in.
yes the same kit I used will work for your 99 WJ

I have a 02 jeep grand cherokee limited the bleed door are making noise what can I do to fix it
it's kind of a Jeep thing. Do they make the noise several minutes after turning off the engine? If so that's what my Jeep has always done.
@@martinbuilt it just started making the noise about 2 months ago
Hey which dash kit did you use for that double din pioneer?
I believe it was this one.

Thank you for watching
Thank you, im still working on my install, so much trimming to get it to fit! The kit looks similar to yours but the stereo isnt attached directly to the bezel but to brackets that the original stereo screwed into. Appreciate the reply and videos! -J
They use lead free solder, you can add leaded solder as you heat up with your solder gun to get it to flow, use a solder wick to get the lead free solder removed, once all solder is gone just replace with lead solder.
Thanks for the tips. 👍
Where do you find the leds at do you have a link?
keepithookin 21 I find them on eBay just look under 50/50 LED light strip should find quite a few sellers.
Can I buy the led strips and cut every 3 leds?
Yes i bought a 5 meter strip. Go to eBay look for (50/50 white led) and you'll find all kinds
What kind of head unit do you have in your Jeep just bought a 2004 Overland Grand Cherokee and I'm looking to do a lot of LED replacement and head unit installation for my girlfriend
Fyi if you want to keep the original green look buy yellow led lights
Thanks for the tip.👍
Thanks for the vid! Wow, seems like you jumped out of the Twilight Zone TV show!
Who knew George Bush could change bulbs! Lol!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks George W Bush
This is 100 percent wrong.
