I'm about to start a new project, I've decided to make my 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ into a budget overland build! come along with me for this ride won't you?
I think you're best option is to have the pcm rapair for like $160 from ebay...you won't have to recode the key...another thing is that if you're good with a soldering iron you could fix it you're self...plenty videos on yt to learn from...i have an 04 wj 4.7 HO...cheers!
You ever get the pcm? You could have picked one up at the junkyard. You gotta find a complete set to pull though. Pcm, key, cylinder and module. I did this for my brother when he lost his key.
Did u do pcm yet? All u need to do is go to junk yard and get computer and the key and key security ring on column with security ring little box and Chang that. Not the whole column but the key and all has to be from the same vehicle jeep at yard. Go on yputube and watch KB motors he does it with a wj he had same issue. Goodluck I'm looking for a cheap one to do same kind of thing but need to be able to rock crawl to I'm in Tenn and alot of rock mountains here.
I loveth vehicles, those gents has't to beest one of the most extra'rdinary motives of transp'rtation in the w'rld, i give you most wondrous success mine own broth'r
Hey man, you don’t need the entire steering wheel column- when you take the plastic off behind the steering wheel, you’ll see a ring around the ignition lock. That’s the SKIM module, take that, the key and locks, and the ECU and you’ll be golden!
Most cost efficient way... remove skim module around ignition. Throw away the PCM. And buy a used one online with the skim module inactive or “dormant”. No more than 130 bucks. Hope this helps.. just noticed how old this video is.
I just came across your video but have you done anything with you wj? If so do you have pics or videos? I just picked one up about a month ago and want to do something with it.
Nobody ever claimed I was trying to be a RU-vid star, but you can feel free to fuck right off. I appreciate the ad revenue from you clicking on this video just to be a Dick in the comments though. Have a blessed day
Also do to my work schedule and running another RU-vid channel I don't upload from May through August that's the way it's always been. I have a new video scheduled from upload Wednesday though. Feel free to watch it
