Thanks a million for the fix! I had the exact same problem. Now, I just need to figure out why the windows, radio, and wipers work intermittently...my mechanic can not figure it out!
Robert Johnson what’s wrong with wipers should be easy fix first check the fuse for wiper motor and if u have access to more wiring u can check power at the motor once u out the wipers switch on
@@RBTheMechanic When I startup my car the radio, wipers, windows, and AC wont work. After a minute or so the overhead console will beep twice then everything goes back to normal for a short time. I have had to leave my jeep with the windows down twice this week.
My 2004 Cherokee Special edition, Check Gauges light come on and the vehicle shuts off by itself. It shut off on me while driving as well, and refused to start up after. After some time it will but then the check gauges light comes on, and then the check engine light. Help I’m frustrated. Jeep only has 174k miles as well, so not much for the year. What’s wrong? Please respond.
All the time. Took my 97 in to 2 separate mechanics. On the passenger side under the dash is a plug that can get closed. Search TH-cam can show ya how to fix. Also the vents on outside rear that are vents can get clogged and cause water to come in through the hatch. Hope this helps.
after I had the radiator cap not fixed properly, water leaked out, open the radiator cap and water gushed all over the car's mechanics and then it appeared on the display (check gauges) how to proceed?
How much is it to get fixed? My light came on n I took it to auto zone but it just read something I’ve gotten fixed already. Should I take it to a Mechanic or oil change place?
Well tackle the issue with charging system check the voltage of alternator clean out or replace battery terminal and if needed change the battery fix that issue first and see where it goes
Thanks had to replace water pump and started having this problems I took it to Firestone, they replaced radiator and still having the same problem. So frustrated and tired of spending money. I had an oil change would Firestone have noticed? I have an 05 Jeep Cherokee?
This happens in my Buick Regal 94 car shuts down then have to pull over turn off and on. What does it mean check gauges or is it a sensor off that causes the issue as far as I can see all gauges are fine.
Hyzos well if it cranks then ur battery and started is good maybe crank sensor is bad. Check fuses and check it slowely and thurly I have came across these jeeps lot with bad fuse and they don’t start also scan the jeep for codes
Hey, I have a 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo and I changed the oil pressure switch yet when it cranks, the truck won’t start and the check gages light comes right back on. Is there something wrong I’m doing by chance?
Ron Washington Jr. check gauge means to check all see if one is out of normal range check ur coolant sensor it’s very comming it will not start if the coolant sensor is bad or disconnected also no start could be anything did u try scanning the Jeep? If u get any codes let me know
RB The Mechanic I took it to AutoZone a few weeks back and two codes popped up on the diagnostic. The codes are P1398 and P0351. The first code stated that it was the crank sensor, which I took care of. And the second stated that it is the ignition coil.
RB The Mechanic I noticed the oil pressure gage, the needle goes back and forth. It’ll go down to 20 PSI and goes right back to 40 PSI when I get to a stop sign or a light.
I have the same issue. Engine loght check gauge light. Had all my spark replace, new a factory gas cap. Its only bad when I ride the ac on the engine light come on and start shaking. Im tired of throwing a way money.. I dont know what to do. I hope that I can do this on my own..

I have that problem in my 97 xj I already replaced the oil pressure sensor and nothing I checked the plug and it read some voltages in the 2 wires one is like 0.20v and the other is 5v with the switch in on position I try to re tight the connectors on the plug with a small screwdriver (I don't know if you know what I mean sorry for my bad English) But it don't show nothing on the cluster
Jair Chapa try to check ur connector because next step is to have some good tools to check oil pressure with some pressure gauge tools which I doubt u can do ur self better to take to mechanic. Also try thicker oil some times the oil pump will not build pressure if u use thin oil
If it’s below 13v you maybe have bad battery or alternator or both check alternator out put should be above 13v could be any number above 13 such as 13.40 13.70 if it’s not then bad alternator
Try scanning the car for codes if it’s older model like this one see if it has code for crank position sensor. These jeeps are knows for bad crank sensor I have done lot of those. Also check spark spray starter fluid to see if that gives any signs of start up. These are first few steps
The sensor wasn't bent... The socket wasn't on the sensor properly. The socket seemed to be slightly bigger than the sensor, so it wasn't on straight and it got misaligned. You'll also notice that the socket he used to take it off the sensor wasn't used to put it back on because it's not the right tool for the job. When he did use the correct "oil pressure sensor socket" he didn't have it seated correctly as it started to slip (@5:47)... Camera cuts away, and then the sensor is magically seated? Guessing he used a pair of channel locks to finish tightening it off camera by the way the crud was rubbed off the oil filter housing when he comes back to plug the sensor back in. 🤔
I changed my sensor and the check gauge light is still on and the gauge still does not register any pressure. Any suggestions as to what it may be? The truck is an 07 Ram 1500. 4.7 ltr Runs excellent, but this has me baffled
ironhorse127 Oh those rams have problem with the Guatemalan it self might want to check wiring continuity if you think sensor is good check wires and if that check out then check the gauge it self
Sir,,after i did replaced my oil pressure sensor or sender unit...the checkngages lights is gone! But after a while the check gages light it came back....what do you think is a problem is
james ark The issue here is the light means check guagues so any one car be problem if u can tell me which one is off spec then we can determine what the problem is
Have a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee it would randomly die and wouldn’t turn on for about 20 mins. Was told to change pcm so I did, changed crank sensor, changed purge valve, changed fuel filter and still nothing. Only light I have on dash is check gauges
Strizzy try swapping coolant sensor I have had many cases where it gave faulty signal or try putting on scanner see the out out of coolant sensor please subscribe
I changed mine but still having the same problem. It only comes on after driving a while and only while idling. If I have the air conditioner on or put it in idle at a stop light, it'll turn off. I also just had a new radiator put in, crank sensor, starter among a few other things... how much more do I drop before I throw in the towel? I have 159k miles on it. I've NEVER had an issue until this year. The mechanics don't seem to know what the issue is. And it's been to a few this year. Suggestions? Thoughts? Advice?

@@RBTheMechanic sooooo first off thank you so much for responding! I'm on youtube daily and it didn't give a notification that you responded so sorry about that delay. Secondly- I subscribed. Finally- I have an 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. It never ever has overheated. Coolant is fine- I just got a new radiator last week. (I even bled the radiator to make sure there was no air in in it) I took it back to the shop and they said they think it's an idle issue. They are gonna explore more tomorrow. I'll let you know what happens. But for real... I need to stop being so cheap and just get a new car. I just love no car payment and also I love my Jeep!!!!
Angelina M. No problem. So did you take a look at the dash when this issue happned to see if any of the gauge was out of spec and please scan the car for codes. And if u can make video and post it when it happned I might be able to figure out the issue
@@RBTheMechanic The mechanic found nothing. He said there was just a little oil buildup so he cleaned it and that might be it. But no. I went to work Thursday and after my hour commute and I'm idling, there goes the stupid light again. The oil gauge goes up a little and then drops to zero. As soon as I tap the gas, it goes off. If I turn the air or heat on, it goes off.

after I had the radiator cap not fixed properly, water leaked out, open the radiator cap and water gushed all over the car's mechanics and then it appeared on the display (check gauges) how to proceed?
It might have over heated I would reset or check to see if any guage of off it’s good spec reading

U have to check for all performance of gauges have a mechanic take a look
Have the same problem , but the charging gauge goes up and down !! its been in the garage for two years , any help will do !😳
Well tackle the issue with charging system check the voltage of alternator clean out or replace battery terminal and if needed change the battery fix that issue first and see where it goes
Some times it just corrosion on terminals even if they look clean the contact on battery and terminal is not solid
I changed this car part but my car keeps shutting off and the check cages light comes up, is there anything else I should look for?
Check alternator output

Pianopraiser no let you local mechanic check it out need to check all sensors output
RB The Mechanic thanks for the quick response.
Perfect video man.The other guy was annoying.
Can you drive around like this will it hurt anything cuz mine is doing the same thing it says check Gage and the oil pressure temperature is on 0
You have to check find the problem you can damage the engine or it will shut down depends on the fault

You see how the socket wobbles like that as you take the old sensor out? The sensor is bent! Someone definitely broke it while changing the filter.
