2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE oil type

STANDARD PROCEDURE - OIL PUMP VOLUME
CHECK
Measuring the oil pump output volume will deter-
mine if sufficient oil flow to the transmission oil
cooler exists, and whether or not an internal trans-
mission failure is present.
Verify that the transmission fluid is at the proper
level. Refer to the Fluid Level Check procedure in
this section. If necessary, fill the transmission to the
proper level with MopartATF +4, type 9602, Auto-
matic Transmission Fluid.
(1) Disconnect theTo coolerline at the cooler
inlet and place a collecting container under the dis-
connected line.CAUTION: With the fluid set at the proper level,
fluid collection should not exceed (1) quart or inter-
nal damage to the transmission may occur.
(2) Run the engineat 1800 rpm, with the shift
selector in neutral. Verify that the transmission fluid
temperature is below 104.5É C (220É F) for this test.
(3) If one quart of transmission fluid is collected in
the container in 30 seconds or less, oil pump flow vol-
ume is within acceptable limits. If fluid flow is inter-
mittent, or it takes more than 30 seconds to collect
one quart of fluid, refer to the Hydraulic Pressure
tests in this section for further diagnosis.
(4) Re-connect theTo coolerline to the transmis-
sion cooler inlet.

INPUT AND LOW RANGE GEARS
Inspect the low range gear pinions and pinion pins.
Replace the low range gear if any of the pins or pin-
ions are worn or damaged.
Inspect the thrust washers, retainer, and snap-
ring. Replace the snap-ring if bent, or distorted.
Replace the thrust washers and retainer if worn,
cracked or damaged in any way.
Examine the input gear carefully. Be sure the gear
teeth and bearing surfaces are in good condition.
Replace the gear if wear or damage is evident.
Check the input gear pilot bearing. Rotate the
bearing and check for roughness or noise. Also check
bearing position in the bore. The bearing should be
recessed approximately 2.5 mm (0.100 in.) below the
top edge of the bore. The bearing should not be
seated at the bottom of the bore. Replace the bearing
if worn, or roughness is evident. Replace both the
gear and bearing if the bearing is a loose fit in the
bore.
GEAR CASE AND RETAINERS
Examine both case halves and retainers carefully.
Replace any retainer or case half if wear, cracks, or
other damage is evident.
Check condition of the low range annulus gear and
the shift rail bushing in the front case (Fig. 32). The
low range annulus gear is not a serviceable part.
Replace the gear and case as an assembly if the gear
is loose, worn, or damaged. The shift rail bushing is
a serviceable part and can be replaced if necessary.
Check the bushing in the rear retainer. Replace the
bushing if worn or scored.
Examine the sealing surfaces of both case halves
and retainers. Small burrs, or scratches on these sur-
faces can be reduced with crocus cloth or a fine tooth
file.
Examine condition of the shift rail bushing in the
front case. If the bushing is worn or damaged, it can
be removed with a blind hole type puller. A replace-
ment bushing can be installed with a suitable size
driver. Recess the bushing slightly below the edge of
the bore but do not seat it all the into the case.
GEARTRAIN
Inspect the mainshaft splines, gear teeth and bear-
ing surfaces carefully for evidence of wear, or dam-
age. Replace the shaft if necessary. do not attempt to
salvage it if damaged.
The shift rail and range fork are an assembly.
Replace both parts if either is damaged. However, the
nylon pads in the fork can be replaced if worn, or
cracked.
Inspect the transfer case snap-rings closely. Do not
attempt to salvage a distorted snap-ring by straight-ening or reshaping it. Replace any snap-ring that is
distorted, or worn.
Inspect the low range gear, input gear and the gear
thrust washers retainer, and snap-ring. The low
range gear is serviced as an assembly only. Replace
the gear if the case or pinions are damaged.
During inspection, also make sure the seal surface
of the input gear is in good condition. Minor nicks on
this surface can be reduced with crocus cloth. How-
ever, replace the gear if the seal surface is severely
scored or worn.
OIL PUMP AND PROGRESSIVE COUPLING
The oil pump and progressive coupling are not ser-
viceable components. Replace the coupling as an
assembly if it is damaged. Replace the oil pump as
an assembly if the gear teeth are worn, or if the
pump has become damaged.
BEARINGS AND SEALS
The transfer case seals should be replaced during
overhaul. Use new seals in the input gear bearing
retainer, front case and rear retainer. Also replace
the yoke seal washer and the detent plug O-ring.
Check condition of each transfer case bearing.
Replace any bearing exhibiting signs of roughness,
wear, or damage.

OPERATION
OPERATION - HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER
Outside fresh air enters the vehicle through the
cowl top opening at the base of the windshield, and
passes through a plenum chamber to the HVAC sys-
tem blower housing. Air flow velocity can then be
adjusted with the blower motor speed selector switch
on the a/c heater control panel. The air intake open-
ings must be kept free of snow, ice, leaves, and other
obstructions for the HVAC system to receive a suffi-
cient volume of outside air.
It is also important to keep the air intake openings
clear of debris because leaf particles and other debris
that is small enough to pass through the cowl ple-
num screen can accumulate within the HVAC hous-
ing. The closed, warm, damp and dark environment
created within the HVAC housing is ideal for the
growth of certain molds, mildews and other fungi.
Any accumulation of decaying plant matter provides
an additional food source for fungal spores, which
enter the housing with the fresh air. Excess debris,
as well as objectionable odors created by decaying
plant matter and growing fungi can be discharged
into the passenger compartment during HVAC sys-
tem operation.
Both the manual and AZC heater and air condi-
tioner are blend-air type systems. In a blend-air sys-
tem, a blend door controls the amount of
unconditioned air (or cooled air from the evaporator)
that is allowed to flow through, or around, the heater
core. A temperature control knob on the a/c heater
control panel determines the discharge air tempera-
ture by energizing the blend door actuator, which
operates the blend door. This allows an almost imme-
diate control of the output air temperature of the sys-
tem. The AZC system will have separate blend doors
and temperature controls for each front seat occu-
pant.
The mode control knob on the a/c heater control
panel is used to direct the conditioned air to the
selected system outlets. On manual temperature con-
trol systems, the mode control knob switches engine
vacuum to control the mode doors, which are oper-
ated by vacuum actuators. On AZC systems, the
mode control knob switches electrical current to con-
trol the mode doors, which are operated by electronic
actuators.
The outside air intake can be shut off on manual
temperature control systems by selecting the Recircu-
lation Mode with the mode control knob. The outside
air intake can be shut off on Automatic Zone Control
(AZC) type system by pushing the Recirculation
Mode button. This will operate the recirculation door
that closes off the outside fresh air intake and recir-
culates the air that is already inside the vehicle.The air conditioner for all models is designed for
the use of non-CFC, R-134a refrigerant. The air con-
ditioning system has an evaporator to cool and dehu-
midify the incoming air prior to blending it with the
heated air. This air conditioning system uses a ther-
mal expansion valve to meter refrigerant flow to the
evaporator coil. To maintain minimum evaporator
temperature and prevent evaporator freezing, the
system utilizes an evaporator thermister probe with
the appropriate operating logic located in the body
control module (BCM).
OPERATION - REFRIGERANT SYSTEM SERVICE
PORT
The high pressure service port is located on the liq-
uid line near the receiver/drier. The low pressure ser-
vice port is located on the suction line near the
evaporator at the rear of the engine compartment.
Each of the service ports has a threaded plastic
protective cap installed over it from the factory. After
servicing the refrigerant system, always reinstall
both of the service port caps.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - A/C
PERFORMANCE
The air conditioning system is designed to provide
the passenger compartment with low temperature
and low specific humidity air. The evaporator, located
in the HVAC housing on the dash panel below the
instrument panel, is cooled to temperatures near the
freezing point. As warm damp air passes through the
cooled evaporator, the air transfers its heat to the
refrigerant in the evaporator and the moisture in the
air condenses on the evaporator fins. During periods
of high heat and humidity, an air conditioning sys-
tem will be more effective in the Recirculation Mode.
With the system in the Recirculation Mode, only air
from the passenger compartment passes through the
evaporator. As the passenger compartment air dehu-
midifies, the air conditioning system performance
levels improve.
Humidity has an important bearing on the tempera-
ture of the air delivered to the interior of the vehicle. It
is important to understand the effect that humidity has
on the performance of the air conditioning system.
When humidity is high, the evaporator has to perform a
double duty. It must lower the air temperature, and it
must lower the temperature of the moisture in the air
that condenses on the evaporator fins. Condensing the
moisture in the air transfers heat energy into the evap-
orator fins and tubing. This reduces the amount of heat
the evaporator can absorb from the air. High humidity
greatly reduces the ability of the evaporator to lower
the temperature of the air.

A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH
DESCRIPTION
The compressor clutch assembly consists of a sta-
tionary electromagnetic coil, a hub bearing and pul-
ley assembly, and a clutch plate (Fig. 4). The
electromagnetic coil unit and the hub bearing and
pulley assembly are each retained on the nose of the
compressor front housing with snap rings. The clutch
plate is keyed to the compressor shaft and secured
with a bolt.
OPERATION
The compressor clutch components provide the
means to engage and disengage the compressor from
the engine serpentine accessory drive belt. When the
clutch coil is energized, it magnetically draws the
clutch into contact with the pulley and drives the
compressor shaft. When the coil is not energized, the
pulley freewheels on the clutch hub bearing, which is
part of the pulley. The compressor clutch and coil are
the only serviced parts on the compressor.
The compressor clutch engagement is controlled by
several components: the a/c switch on the a/c heater
control panel, the Automatic Zone Control (AZC) con-
trol module (if the vehicle is so equipped), the evap-
orator probe, the a/c high pressure transducer, the
a/c compressor clutch relay, the body control module
(BCM) and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The PCM may delay compressor clutch engagement
for up to thirty seconds. Refer to Electronic Control
Modules for more information on the PCM controls.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COMPRESSOR
CLUTCH COIL
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring diagrams. The battery must be
fully-charged before performing the following tests.
Refer to Battery for more information.
(1) Connect an ammeter (0 to 10 ampere scale) in
series with the clutch coil terminal. Use a voltmeter
(0 to 20 volt scale) with clip-type leads for measuring
the voltage across the battery and the compressor
clutch coil.
(2) With the a/c heater mode control switch in any
a/c mode, the a/c heater control a/c switch in the ON
position, and the blower motor switch in the lowest
speed position, start the engine and run it at normal
idle.
(3) The compressor clutch coil voltage should read
within 0.2 volts of the battery voltage. If there is
voltage at the clutch coil, but the reading is not
within 0.2 volts of the battery voltage, test the clutch
coil feed circuit for excessive voltage drop and repair
as required. If there is no voltage reading at the
clutch coil, use a DRBIIItscan tool and the appro-
priate diagnostic information for testing of the com-
pressor clutch circuit. The following components
must be checked and repaired as required before you
can complete testing of the clutch coil:
²Fuses in the junction block and the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC)
²A/C heater mode control switch
²A/C compressor clutch relay
²A/C high pressure transducer
²A/C evaporator probe
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
²Body Control Module (BCM)
(4) The compressor clutch coil is acceptable if the
current draw measured at the clutch coil is 2.0 to 3.9
amperes with the electrical system voltage at 11.5 to
12.5 volts. This should only be checked with the work
area temperature at 21É C (70É F). If system voltage
is more than 12.5 volts, add electrical loads by turn-
ing on electrical accessories until the system voltage
drops below 12.5 volts.
(a) If the clutch coil current reading is four
amperes or more, the coil is shorted and should be
replaced.
(b) If the clutch coil current reading is zero, the
coil is open and should be replaced.

STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPRESSOR
CLUTCH BREAK-IN
After a new compressor clutch has been installed,
cycle the compressor clutch approximately twenty
times (five seconds on, then five seconds off). During
this procedure, set the A/C Heater control in the
Recirculation Mode, the A/C button in the on posi-
tion, the blower motor switch in the highest speed
position, and the engine speed at 1500 to 2000 rpm.
This procedure (burnishing) will seat the opposing
friction surfaces and provide a higher compressor
clutch torque capability.
REMOVAL
The refrigerant system can remain fully-charged
during compressor clutch, pulley, or coil replacement.
The compressor clutch can be serviced in the vehicle.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the serpentine drive belt. Refer to
Cooling for the procedures.
(3) Remove the bolt that secures the compressor
clutch to the compressor shaft (Fig. 5). A band-type
oil filter wrench may be used to secure the clutch
during bolt removal.
(4) Tap the clutch plate with a plastic mallet to
release it from the splines on the compressor shaft.
Remove the clutch plate and shim(s) from the com-
pressor shaft (Fig. 6).
CAUTION: Do not pry between the clutch plate
assembly and the pulley to remove it from the com-
pressor shaft. Prying may damage the clutch plate
assembly.(5) Remove the external snap ring that secures the
compressor clutch pulley to the nose of the compres-
sor front housing with snap ring pliers (Special Tool
C-4574) and slide the pulley assembly off of the com-
pressor (Fig. 7).
(6) Remove the screw and retainer from the clutch
coil lead wire harness on the compressor front hous-
ing.
