    HOW TO: replace blower motor assembly

    Had to replace the blower on our '02 limited KJ. It had a burnt connection where the plug attaches that also melted the plug and jacket on wiring. Luckily my dealer had a replacement plug and blower in stock. They did give me a 25% discount on the parts. Took me about 30 minutes to install...

    A\C Setting And Airflow

    Yep my wife's kinda did the same thing. I was thinking it was the resister, which I changed, but in the process found a clear umbrella bag she had in the glove box blocking the vent. Removed the bag, replaced the resister and it works fine now.

    Belt tensioner??

    Just replaced mine on our '02 KJ Limited (68000 miles) with the Dayco brand. $45.99 @ local Advance Auto Parts store using $10 VISA discount code online. Took maybe 20 minutes tops. Probably would have been a $150 job at dealer.

    Had 5th window regulator repaired on our 2002 KJ Limited

    Had 5th window regulator repaired on our 2002 KJ Limited

    Yep the rear passenger side has failed 3 times now and the window hasn't even been used. This time they replaced just the Lift Plate assembly (CDCZX27CAB) with a new part that the dealer said they were now using, so hopefully it'll last longer. On a positive note Chrysler Consumer Affairs is...

    Front brakes and rotors

    I provided Rotors and Ceramic Disk Pads ($150 from AutoZone) then paid local Jeep Dealer $85 to install. Thankfully my dealer will install non OEM parts that I provide. If they installed the Mopar Value Line brake pads you got took to the cleaners. Those are about the lowest quality pads out...

    Need Help!! Strange noise when running AC

    Out of curiosity the belt is routed properly? Strange enough I recently had the transmission serviced and while at it had the dealer replace the belt. Two days later I notice an obvious ticking noise yet couldn't quite place which pulley it was. Happened to look at belt routing and noticed it...

    ....Spark Plugs....

    I put the same ones in my '02 recently (@60K) and adjusted the gap to .040. New plugs certainly got our Liberty back to getting better mpg.

    Change your oil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's certainly goes beyond what you can readily find out, that 3K OCI is a waste. Even the Auto manufactures tell you different ... :hmm: I could certainly see it under extreme conditions but 5k OCI under normal driving conditions isn't going to cause a premature engine failure.
