"Lights on" chime not working (97 TJ - doors ON)
I see there are quite a few posts on this topic but I'm not able to
find the answer to the problem. The "lights on" chime when the engine is turned off is not working on my 97 TJ. I searched older posts and realize that the #4 fuse behind the glove box needs to be in for this chime to work (along with the "keys in" buzzer and the door switch that controls the interior lights, which are also not working). Assuming the #4 fuse was blown I replaced it and still no luck. I drive with the doors on (so far) and frequently forget to turn the lights out. Also, based on some of the scratches on the doors I'm guessing the previous owner removed the doors frequently. Is it possible ALL of these features were disabled another way other than pulling the #4 fuse? Any troubleshooting suggestions appreciated. Howie 97 TJ Sport |

LOL!
'Pull' the fuse out... You put the fuse 'in' to defeat the door switch and chime. ;-) Mike 86/00 CJ7 Laredo, 33x9.5 BFG Muds, 'glass nose to tail in '00 88 Cherokee 235 BFG AT's HG97TJ wrote: > > I see there are quite a few posts on this topic but I'm not able to > find the answer to the problem.

the fuse must be IN for chime to work LOL MIKE was wrong... make sure the
door pins are in place... the previous owner could have unplugged them and taken them out...

Hmmm, I thought you 'added' the fuse to #4 or the auto tranny slot to
defeat the neutral switch and door lights. One of Bill 'dyslexic' moments maybe.. ;-) Well, wouldn't be the first time I was mistaken... If so, then I have seen a few folks post about removing the chime itself off the dash circuit board as well as messing with the door switches.

Pulling the fuse is what defeats the door switches so the interior
lights don't stay on when the doors are off. Mike Romain wrote: > Hmmm, I thought you 'added' the fuse to #4 or the auto tranny slot to > defeat the neutral switch and door lights.

Pull the fuse to defeat the circuit, insert the fuse to enable it. My guess is that the PO unplugged the door switch once, and never plugged it back in again. |

I was thinking tranny, you add a fuse into the auto slot to defeat the neutral switch. Mike 86/00 CJ7 Laredo, 33x9.5 BFG Muds, 'glass nose to tail in '00 88 Cherokee 235 BFG AT's |

Ok, that is opposite, I was thinking tranny fuse to defeat the neutral
switch.
