Thank you for making it really easy to understand what was wrong with the windows and mirrors and how easy they are to fix . Cheers from down under .
You’re welcome buddy
Excellent video. You work like I work. Do it right the first time. No, hack job. Clean and professional.
thanks buddy
I'll be the first to admit it, i'm not ashamed to use a youtube video to help me out!!! And the best part is that it's free 👍
Same buddy
Thank you, bro; it just happened to me exactly the same issue, that black wire was cut. I recommend keeping the black boot. A little difficult to pass the new cable through it but can be done. The orange cable eventually might be replaced too.
Awesome glad this helped you!
Mine went out today and was reading a Jeep Forum and couldn't figure out wtf they were talking about. Good video man. I was about to take my door panel off lol
Awesome! Glad to help!
It's the wires in driver side door jam and sometimes passenger front door jam.
I ran 10awg OFC wires from inside door through to under dash and used self soldering heat shrink butt connectors on the wires one by one matching them to the wires in door to under dash. But I cut out the electric plug connectors and removed them completely.
Jeep(Chrysler) in 99-04 put in the cheapest wires they could in WJ models and had 5 different sizes of wires that where cheap cca wire with the bad kind of insulation that drys and cracks easily.
If you replaced with the available online replacement door wiring harnesses with the pin connectors it will break in months to a year again and again from normal use of the doors.
Same thing with doing a butt connection in door jam where it bends. That's why it's important to upgrade wires to OFC (oxygen free copper) stranded not solid copper wire 14-12 Gauge and use self solder butt connectors but have extra wires and ditch the connectors so you can stuff the wires inside the door and inside the inside of dash under steering wheel. This makes it so they don't break again. Just zip tie them inside and when door opens it is only moving a solid higher grade wire that has no connection points in door jam.
The replacement ones from Mopar are damn near impossible to get and are incredibly expensive and still break. The cheaper brand available online with light green color wires is even worse wires than OEM.
My method should last over a decade for any of you.
You can buy rubber seal plugs for the doors electric connector holes and cut a slit in them with a hole in center for wires to go through, sealing the harness wire holes very cheap. You can also buy replacement door jam rubber boots that look accordian 🪗 because I've seen several WJ's from 02's to 04's that had their boots basically melted on the plastic and unable to be removed without cutting. They are in the vehicles in high heat over 20-25 years, imagine in Vegas, or Arizona heat putting vehicles around 120°F almost year round.
Great advice for someone wanting to take the repair to the next level
It's amazing how simple a repair can be if you do some homework on what you're trying to fix.
Exactly
Awesome Video! Thanks For Sharing! Good Job!!!
Thanks
Most people don’t have mechanical ability or common sense
Truth
Really well done. Thank you!
You’re welcome
Ive has a lot of Mustangs, 80s T birds and Explorers have broken wires in the door jambs, a lot of times the windows would work with the doors open but not when closed lol. Seen toggle switches and wires ran inside from the battery where they would touch them to make the windows work
Lol amazing. If it works it works right!
Thanks! So helpful! 😊
Awesome glad to hear!
Thank you for this video brother
You’re very welcome
life saver thank you
You’re very welcome
My issue is the driver side windows and windows behind the driver side work, but the front passenger side and rear passenger side back won't work, and just stopped working. And my key fob stopped locking and unlocking. What would be the culprit for the key fob, not locking and unlocking. What wires?
Not sure on that honestly. Sorry
Probably replaced back windows motors, Cherokees are known for having bad rear motors. I’ve changed both of mine twice
Yea
They were going to get better speakers for you
Lol no way
What gauge wire do you need to use if you have a really short wire and have to splice it in? Super amateur here.
Honestly not sure. I’d cut off a 1/4” piece maybe and take to local parts store and match it
What is this plug called mines all bandaged up thinking maybe replace the whole switch
It’s built into each harness so the whole harness would need to be replaced. I’d just got get one out a junkyard
Why did you skip getting the harness thru the hole to the inside? Because if its connected to the black connector and the white clip it wont fit thru.
It’s been awhile since I did this video so I don’t remember fully what I did but all harnesses will fit through door jambs from factory some are just tight and have to be turned just right. All harnesses are made on bench then installed in car so it has to be able to pass through.
I got a nitro. No front windows or mirrors. Going to see if i can get the plug out the door.
Hope that helps you.
Did you fix the ac because I'm having the same issue
Yes ended up putting a new compressor on and works great. Also later had a bad BCM that caused windows and ac along with other stuff not to work intermittently. Replaced BCM and all issues fixed
😎
