Very good video bud. I especially like how you removed all the fluff. I dislike videos where they show every bolt getting unscrewed. It’s a waste of time. You did it right.
@tatepeterson1069 Awesome, Thank you for the input it really helps me out!
I will also be doing this soon. Need to fix check engine light, replace the radio unit, repair the hvac unit & blend door actuators, probably get a new sub assembly.
I love this video, thank you so much!!
Awesome brother I'm glad to hear it!
I'm also really glad this helps you.
I did an entire series on everything a/c Related, here's the playlist link in case you want to check it out

I’m actually doing this process myself! Your video is helping out a lot!
Thats what i like to hear! Good Luck!
If you need more videos i have a whole playlist on my channel that's all related to removing and rebuilding the dash
@@Motorcycle_ManI had a hell of a time trying to get that cable out that goes under the steering column until I turned the key on the ignition and it came out like butter.
@andrewg.8876 yeah i cant remember if i mentioned in the video that the key needs to be turned
Glad you got it figured out, when its all fixed and done you'll appreciate the jeep that much more 👍👍
@@andrewg.8876 exact same thing happened for me. I’m in the middle of this project and I was FIGHTING that dang cable until something told me to try the ignition.
You act like you've done this before :-) Great video, very concise and well presented. Almost makes me look forward to doing this job... but not quite lol. Thanks man, super helpful 👍
Extremely glad to hear this, it's all about helping others 😄 you could definitely say I've done this a few times before lol
If you have any questions along the way feel free to ask me in the comments, I check and respond to all of them
Great video I used this to remove everything and replace all the guts of my hvac system
Awesome! Im glad my video is serving its intended use!
@@Motorcycle_Man after i finish putting the dash back on, should I go to a shop to have the lines vac tested and refilled? Or try at home?
@shanewiliamjohnson I would definitely take it to a shop.
There they will have all the proper machinery to do all the correct tests and refill procedures.
It may cost a little more, but it's better to go ahead and do it the right way.
Nice detailed vid! I feel for you, lol! I’m trying to figure out what is directly behind the ashtray hole, a harness or duct work? I’m in need of placing (2)3/8” long screws through mine(just a cubby/no ashtray as mine isn’t the V8 model) to mount a bracket to hold my communications radio face plate. The screws will be low in the cubby maybe 1/2” up from the bottom of the cubby. I don’t need to be putting any screws through a harness!
Thanks for watching ! Let me check on my lunch break and I'll get back to you!
@@Motorcycle_Man thanks but I did get it figured out last night! I keep forgetting how poorly our vehicles are built these days and seen another video where that lower dash piece just pulls out/off! There is a harness back there but short screws don’t interfere.
@@desertd2609 hell yeah I'm glad you got it figured out. I was gonna say I think its all wiring harness down that low. After doing the dash 3 times I should of remembered lol
@@Motorcycle_Man man I feel for you!!! I’m pretty mechanically inclined but I wouldn’t do that job 3 times, it would be gone and move onto something else!
@@desertd2609 trust me, I was at my breaking point. 2 DEFECTIVE HEATER CORES! How is that possible... I finally bought the mopar one and was solid
I’m doing this right now. Wish me luck
Good Luck!!🤣🤣
Its not bad, i just recommend getting an extra hand when its time to lift out the dash.

Also here's a playlist I made that's everything jeep wj dashboard and ac/heating system related
So far your instructions have made it very easy. That dang cable under the steering wheel at 9:35 which seems to have disconnected easily for you is giving me a really hard fight!
**the key has to be in the ignition to pull this cable out I just figured it out**
Well done! That will be my wife’s reaction when she sees me rip the Jeep apart
Thanks for your efforts. Good video
Happy to help!
@@Motorcycle_Man mine there was problems getting the dash to unlatch on the passenger side
@walterbrennan7887 yeah it can be tricky to get that part, Good Luck !!
Great video, very helpful
Glad I can Help, Thanks for Watching
Hey Nick, great videos. I'm 68(to old to do this job) but I need help with my '01 4.0 Grand w/ a bad heater core/hvac. I'm interested in speaking to you about doing this monumental job for me. My name is Gary located in northern Delaware.
Hey Gary, Thanks for reaching out.
I'd be happy to help in anyway possible, although I live pretty far from you all the way up in Maine
How long does this take like a couple hours?
For me, if I work non stop and I've done it multiple times and know all the tricks I could do it in less than 2 hours, maybe closer to 1.5
I'm putting the dash back together and I found a 3 prong connector plug right next to the gage cluster just underneath it. I cant for the life of me find where it plugs back into. Any ideas?
Do you have social media?
I have facebook and instagram
Do you wanna send me a picture?
Good thing you found that woman!
I'm guessing labor for that job is atleast $500 or more. It's way more than I thought of work.
Boys and girls is correct 😊
Haha Thanks for watching 😄 yes I've heard of labor being as high as $1100 depending on where you go
I recently replaced my blend door actuator and I still hear that noise when my Jeep is off. Almost sounds like it’s coming from the blower motor area. Any thoughts?
The clicking sound you mean?
@@Motorcycle_Man Yes.
@@S_Anaya it could be the blend door is broken or the motor on the backside is broken like i showed in the back
To fix it youd have to take apart the dash.
I have a whole Playlist on how to remove and do everything if you need it
@@Motorcycle_Man Yes, I watched the whole series. Excellent how to! Definitely saved for future reference. Thanks for your replies.
@@S_Anaya very happy to help! Good Luck, and if you have any questions just comment and I'll reply!
Any thoughts on how to fix a non working parking brake? Mine looks like yours, 2003 jeep.grand cherokee inline 6 4.0l limited with all the upgrades from factory. I've put around 5-6k into replacing what feels like everything at this point and I found out recently that it'd cost 1100 to replace the whole ac system; I've also got the drivers window and passenger windows to fix still aswell.
So about the parking brake, have you adjusted it at the back wheel or inspected the shoes? I would start there, only other thing it could be is the cables..
The ac system is a pain in the butt to replace, but definitely worth it.
Also I'm getting ready to post a video on the window Regulators if you need it, they are pretty easy to do
Whats included in the ac system replacement that you mentioned?
@Motorcycle_Man I don't know the name of most of the parts I've replaced off hand I just know where they are. The mini radiator had a hole in the side, the compressor pump in the middle back straight left is cracked on the bottom and then the hose is leaking at the metal.connection point where I had electricians tape wrapped around a cover sheath since I went and replaced all the wire protectors I could reach in the engine bay because they disintegrated
@@rohncarver3585 oh yeah I just did all of those repairs recently on mine, sounds like you need a condenser, a/c compressor and new a/c hoses. Let Me tell you now bro. That's alot of work! But in the end it will feel so nice sitting in the A/C
