98xj power windows and locks....all windows side mirrors work flawlessly but I cannot get the power locks to work. Suggestions???

Check fuse #15 and breaker #28 if all good check connections with a volt meter in the doors and clean them.

What is good to clean them with?

Do they just kinda sorta if you lock unlock lock and unlock again then some times work, or not work AT ALL?

ctjkelley

They use to work once in a while but now nothing at all.....nothing!

Ok. So like it was stated earlier check the fuse and volts at the plugs clean them while your at it. Any electrical cleaner will be fine if you have di-electric grease you should put it around the contacts to keep them from getting dirty again. If volts check out ( I want to say 10v minimum) then I don't know what else to suggest some one else will though I'm sure. If volts don't check out there is a write up by some one named Greg smith floating around the web on adding relays to get the power flowing.

Just went back and researched that thread and its for pre 91 Cherokees so probably won't do you any good sorry.

Sorry comp is being stupid, clean them with electric contact cleaner available at any auto parts store.

Heres a known problem broken wires in the wire harness from the door to the body on the driver door give that a check.

Very True!
I am surprised no one else has suggested to check the wiring.

The main control is in the passenger side switch. The relays in there are probably bad. Mine were. Just replace it.
