The BIG 7 Wire Harness upgrade from JeepCables: www.jeepcables...
4GA Wire is usable for anything stock and even beyond, it’s thicker than the stock wire, which can already handle light modifications.
2GA Wire is for running an onboard theater while winching 4 other cars out of a ditch simultaneously, with 47 halogen bulbs shining in every possible direction and blasting ACDC through your 2 foot wide speakers.

I watched your video and I went outside to my 99 cherokee and took a look and sure enough wiring, harness, zip tie broke, and mine was doing the same exact thing. Thanks for letting me know so I could catch it.

@Expo!!! Your sacrifice has saved someone!

I'm glad my experience has saved other people from having the same problem, happy to have helped.

This happened to my Forest Green 99 as well. I was losing my mind trying to find out what was going on. The harness would short out my PCM randomly (Sometimes on the interstate) and the Jeep would not exit 2nd gear and would lose the whole cluster. Finally I inspected every single ground I can find and when coming across the one on the firewall I spotted that torn up harness. Played with it and found that was the issue. Thankyou for all your in depth videos man. You help the XJs legacy live on by sharing this knowledge.@@WAEMIDIV

This is unbelievable! I know I'm 5 months late but I've had crazy driveability issues with my 99 lately, specifically the ECT sensor. You mentioned that lower harness hitting the fuel rail and it rang a bell in my brain, that's the one carrying the ECT signal. Went out and checked and there it was. Wiring harness lying on top of the fuel tail, with the brown and yellow ECT wire worn straight through!

@@BrownyCakes1 Thank Expo, another one saved!

Watched this yesterday, today when i was wrenching on my '98 XJ i remembered to take a look, and sure enough the cable harness you mentioned was in the process of getting chewed up by the fuel rail. Fixed it before it caused a breakdown - Thank you dude

This is an upgrade that all our jeeps need at their current age....especially in rust belt states. However, you would be wise to learn the ways of Dielectric Grease, young Skywalker. Your connections will thank you 😊❤

Yes! The city of ember was such a good book/movie. Love the reference

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

It's in my top 5 favorite movies of all time. I read the book as a kid and the movie was an excellent adaptation. There are also 2 sequels and 1 prequel book, which have moderately interesting stories

I need to get on with my big 7 upgrade to give all of the power to the ever so hard working starter in my 2.5

@ironworker5792 6 месяцев назад

Caught one earlier, now this one too!! Hats off to you for the clear narrative. Thats another case of Spotted Cow headed your way… 2000 XJ, 278k. Still running strong

@jackmosher7561 5 месяцев назад

The starter just pooped out in my '99 the other day, and whaddaya know? WAEMID's got another perfectly-timed video for me!! I grabbed the JeepCables big 7 kit for a "while I'm in there" kind of thing and this is perfect. Thanks for the excellent content as always, man.

Waemid you've helped me so much along the way. Your video style is my favorite & your information is king. I didn't feel confident enough to do this only with other popular videos as guides. I now can study this for a short & order my own big 7. I feel like I know you after your 3 part adventure series. Thanks for these videos my brother 🙏

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for the kindness friend. I'm glad to hear I've done a good job

@the-pezinator 6 месяцев назад

WOOOO, Jeep cable upgrade by Waemid, love the format, (plus funny) and get great tips, lucky my firewall cable has not fallen. Great video.

@litz13 2 месяца назад

Add me to the list … was installing the Jeep Cables kit (and a new starter) on my 97 XJ, and sure 'nuff, same sagging harness chewed on by the fuel rail. No wire damage though. It's wire tied up out of the way now.

My xj also died within one hour of ownership. Had it towed home over 2hrs away. After about 4-5 days of chasing wires, grounds, fuses, relays, fuel pumps, pcms, it ended up being my battery terminals which caused ecm fuse#2 to keep blowing

@clevelandcarpenter8535 6 месяцев назад

Excellent video as always!

@guserickson768 6 месяцев назад

@danhambrick6331 6 месяцев назад

Nice job Waemid.💪👍👍

@patrickhenigin4805 4 месяца назад

Actually that ground connect is braid instead of wire is to reduce rf interference.

@hayzersolar 4 месяца назад

thanks for that wire loom problem. I just got a 99 went straight out there and yes it was laying on my intake under the fuel rail. almost had a issue.

@chipjumper 6 месяцев назад

I'll have to check my shitbox in the morning for that harness rub issue. Thanks for the heads up.

@danhambrick6331 6 месяцев назад

Thanks!

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

well I'll be, thank you

@migs909 6 месяцев назад

I died when you had to remind us of starter falling out 😂🤣

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

Now that I know that's apparently a thing that can happen, I keep a close eye on all my starters

@ironworker5792 6 месяцев назад

Anyone here know if higher output alternator swap exists for these older XJ’s?

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

Yes, a second generation Dodge Alternator (Durango) can be made to fit, (slight modification to the alternator bracket for clearance) and that gets you up to 160 amps. Stock is 117

Is your discord one i would be able to join or is it private you guys seen to have some exelent knowledge on jeeps that i could really use

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

Yeah it's just the CherokeeXJ server, I'll put an invite link in the description discord.gg/awvdEQTR

@ky0611 6 месяцев назад

Did you notice any difference?

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

This one, no, because my original wires were in abnormally good shape. But usually, you see faster, easier starting and less electrical problems if you had any

@PeeInMyWetsuit 6 месяцев назад

They don't seem to have any big 7 kits that would be compatible with my 86 MJ 2.5L. Do you think I could make the kit specified for 1987-1992 work?

@WAEMIDIV 6 месяцев назад

I believe so yes. The main thing with 86 is there's just different locations for things. The Starter relay for example, is the exact same part as 87-90 2.5L, but it's mounted on the fender instead of next to the relay box. So some wires might be too long, and some might be too short, but everything should still work if you can solve those issues
