    What year is your xj? Ive got a 95 xj. And when I do a job like this thats going to require the cpu to relearn the parameters of the new sensors… I disconnect the battery. And then after about 20 minutes, I touch the pos and neg battery cables together. Note: you can do this on the ‘96 and older xj,s. But Ive read that you do NOT touch the battery cables together on newer models.) For the newer models, touch the pos cable to a solid ground on the frame or engine. Re install the battery cables and then turn the key so can turn on the headlights. This tells the cpu to dump the saved info and start relearning new info. Ive been told that the next fifty start ups are what the cpu uses to relearn the new parameters of your xj. Sooo.. I like to take the jeep out for a couple of good, long drives on a highway as well as normal puttering about on regular town roads.

      @@highwayxj9397 It was just trial and error. You'd think the straight 1/2 x 3/8 would work but it didn't. I looked it up and MIP stands for "Male Iron Pipe" meaning it's male threading. They don't actually have to made of iron anymore. I also typed in "1/4 mip dimensions" to Google and it said that outside diameter is 0.54 inches. That would explain why it fit for the 1/2 inch hose.

    Hi there, Do you need to disconnect the battery when removing that whole Throttle Body?TIA

    • @DIYwithDrJeff
      @DIYwithDrJeff 12 дней назад

      According to the service manual it doesn't say to do that. To try to get the computer to "learn" there was a new IAC and adjust the air flow I disconnected the neg cable after I was all done. But, that wasn't part of the procedure itself. In my case my rough idle is only marginally better so I plan to go down the stepladder suggested in the manual to address it. I'll try to make a video on that later.

    Hi, did the red triangle and the DTC p0a08 both immediately go away once the fuse was changed?

    • @DIYwithDrJeff
      @DIYwithDrJeff 2 месяца назад

      Yes. It went away immediately. Note that I disconnected the negative battery (ground) during the procedure which resets the computer and clears codes. But the red triangle never came back, and I have done about 50 drive cycles since and no codes. There may be other causes for the P0A08 but luckily in my case it was just a simple fuse. I hope yours tuns out to be nothing more also.
