Thank you, that's great. I had a problem with this on my jeep, no drive but can go in to reverse. The nice guys at Jeep helped but i had to find a cheaper way on fixing the problem. Their team quoted about £8-900 but after someone mentioned on another site, i could pick up the part and do it myself. I'm not a mechanic ether, but can put my mind to most things. I got the gist of how to replace PCB board. Will have a go when part arrives tomorrow. Cheers
Great video! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I was in a street with a dead end… I was turning around from 3 moves and surprise… my Jeep wasn’t shifting anymore…I was looking on RUclips and I found your video… 🙏 thank you
Board was toasted, my brother ordered a new board at a cost of around £300 expecting it to fix the issue but it didnt. Still stuck in limp mode and the 0702 code is still present. Stupid modern electronic crap. :p
I have now part ex jeep for mondeo. The 2 years I had this pile of $!%# cost around 7k to buy and keep on the road. Go 1k part ex. Will never buy a jeep again. Shame u dont live in Northampton the garage I use is amazing and has an ex jeep mechanic working there. Have you had ecu remapped? Have u tried a gallon of petrol and a match. Wish I did. Sorry could not help ur situation and best of luck.
Nope, ecu has not been remapped. He has had the jeep around 10 years now and its been pretty reliable'ish, 247000 miles on the clock so he has had his £££ out of it i suppose. Apart from the one time when one of the injectors decided to leave the head. :D £500 bill having that sorted. He has ordered a transmission plug connector thing as that wire you mentioned was all oily, read that could also cause the issue, was only about a tenner so i will change that on Monday, not holding much hope on that tho. Failing that then he will probably take it to the jeep specialist we got down here in kent.
Wow he has been so lucky. Widh mine was that reliable. Had the black death on mine. All 5 injectors replaced. Cost £1250. Had to drop the engine to get 2 of them out. Loved driving it though.
I read you could cut a hole in the scuttle panel to get to the two rear injectors. I think his is sorted now anyway. We done transmission oil change as he was getting a gear slippage code also, new pan seal, filter and loom plug where it was leaking from, he must of only had about a litre in there and it was all black. Other thing, he was wiping the codes with the ignition on and the engine management light would come straight back on, wiped with engine running, light goes off. Seems to be running sweet as now and no error codes apart from the AC, but thats nothing. So touch wood and fingers crossed. And cheers for this vid, was very helpful.
I need to do you a question, when you get the error with the car computer, could you fix it? Because on my jeep the mechanic literally could correct the error start the truck and drive it a little bit but then the error comes back again..
Hi, great video. What was the presentation of your transmission fault? My Grand Cherokee 2002 2.7 WJ loses power from the transmission intermittently (not the engine) and then when the vehicle comes to a complete stop, I put it in park and then back into drive and it works fine. I'm also thinking it's the ECU?
good man good video ,it helped me out ,but ,you went around the block to test drive it but never came back ,what was the outcome of the new part fitted ,is it safe to spend 500$ buying it or what ??
+RUDY 102 I could not find any videos online to help me so I shared my experience. I am really glad it helped you. It really is just a 10 minute job. I hope you get your jeep sorted. Allan
Hi had the same issue and followed your steps which worked a treat But tried to clean it all up with electrical contact cleaner instead and when I plugged it back in the jeep The selector does nothing Cannot select any gears nothing? Obviously I've plugged it all back in But it's just strange as if anything it should be the same or a little better. Do you have a link to the eBay seller? Thanks

Sorry video was deleted. Car run perfectly. Part exchanged car not.long after this coz it was a money trap. Is no longer on the road. Check mot web site SM53 FLW. These jeeps are a money pit.
@@iball310369 Provided the gearbox electronics and the injector seals are replaced, why would you say they're a money pit? I'm just wondering because I'm coming from a landrover discovery that has similar common problems but perhaps more numbered (coolant, head gasket, injector seals, gearbox electronics, abs lights, prop shaft, watts linkage, and more).
@@ptr6092 proviong the gearbox electronics. And the injector seals are replaced why would I call it a money pit. Gearbox electronics at jeep £900. Injector seals need the engine dropping. £1500. For a car worth £2000? Get real. That is without me replacing most of the suspension and track arms etc at a cost of about £800. Within 6 months of buying the shit heap I spent 1.5 times the cost of the car to keep it on the road. Go to mot checker on the uk government website and put in sm53flw and look at the problems this car has had. You have no clue what you are talking about
@@iball310369 Chill out, it was a genuine question. You can replace seals without dropping the engine and new electronics can be purchased for £200 now. I understand what you're saying but I'm wondering if a good low mileage example might be worth it when you consider the problems on other similar 4x4's.
@@ptr6092 apologies for being a bit over the top but the 2.7 crd has a mercedes engine that is renouned for the "black death" which results in the injectors needing replacing. It is a shit engine plagued with problems. You literally have to drop the engine to replace them. Mine was in the garage for 3 weeks cos one of the threads needing re tapping costing an arm and a leg as it is a specialist job. I also had some of the bodywork cut out and welded back to aid with the injectors closest to the chasis I will never ever consider buying a jeep again. A costly experience. I had the car for 2 years. Overall with the purchase and repair costs it stood me in for around £8000 maybe more. (I had prblems with just about everything from fuel pumps to drive shaft to suspension to seatbelts locking and not being able to be used). I needed a connection on the battery to stop the power to the car because it would drain overnight. I traded in for £1000. Absolutely gutted.
Just pull it off with a screwdriver. Lol, I am a 100kg beast of a man and that thing is stuck as hell. Pulling, tools nothing works. Thinking about cutting it open.
@@sboysallah6601 it is probably the circuit board that is under the gear selectors. You will need to get access to it to take a closer look. If it is all bubbly then it may need replacing. I am not a mechanic so can only advise on how my one looked.

Could you solve the problem with this? Thanks.
Is there any other way to take off the shifter knob my four wheel hi/lo knob does not want to come off
Mine won't change out of first gear when driving, is this the same problem you had and if so did this fix it, thanks
I have a very simple question. How can I remove the knobs from the shift levers?. Are they embedded in persion?.Thank you
I used a pair of mole grips. Clamp them to the shaft and use a screwdriver to prise the knob off.

Thanks so very much... You saved my GCs life
despite your car having that code p0702, how was it behaving? was your gear shifting well?
@@elijahkimani7423 bit late to comment but mine clunked into gear, the whole car lurched and would not change out of first.
@@iball310369hello iball, the error in your case was just P0702? Or were other errors? I appreciate your answer.
What is te part number?
good man good video ,it helped me out ,but ,you went around the block to test drive it but never came back ,what was the outcome of the new part fitted ,is it safe to spend 500$ buying it or what ??
