No it wasn't you I bought mine for about 70 bucks. I use the same name on Ebay as I do on every site. It is hard to find a unique username anymore. Out of all the ebay stores it was one of two that matched my numbers. The one from the other store was shotty looking and he would not come down on price, wanted $100.

As for your thread, already replaced CPS Sensor a.k.a. (Crank Position Sensor) before I replaced ECM and it still didn't help. It was the computer (ECM) the whole time

Ok a little update to close this thread

Replaced ECM now everything runs (better than before might I add)
As for the brake problem replaced rotors, calipers, master cylinder, and booster, all out of a '95 Cherokee. Pull-a-part is a wonderful place everything replaced including price of ECM was less than $140.

Everything works now, so I am ready for the snow and good thing too, we are getting pounded with 6-12" over today and tomarrow.

Thanks for the help everyone!

Sorry to reopen an old thread but I'm having the same problem. I have no cel when keyed on and I'm having a no start. The jeep just cranks. Now has anyone ever had a problem with a cps causing a cel not to come on at all? Even on key on when it does a light check.

Did you check for spark, fuel pressure and injector pulse?

I have fuel at the rail and can hear the fuel pump turn on. Pretty sure I have no spark. The thing that's worrying me is the no cel at key on which makes me believe it could be a faulty pcm. Because some times when I let the jeep sit for a day or 2 it has trouble starting but most the time I could get it to start.

when the switch goes out, its not even switching any signals to the ecm or anything so no spark, fuel prime or pump, no pulse, and it will still crank, thats a seperate part of the switch that rarely goes bad.
I have the same issue with my 96 jeep cherokee and it will turn over but i cant hear fuel pump kicking on no power even going to ignition coil i tested the coil with test light all fuses and relays are good and cant get anything to work as far as fuel,spark,or power to injectors could this be a sign of bad ignition switch??
