Asked by Troy Sep 25, 2020 at 01:14 AM about the 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Jeep still runs and drives but all
the rest of electrical works
intermittently. It will work
sometimes if I pull battery cable
for awhile then reattach it.
Everything will work for a minute
or two.

Clean the terminal and the cable end. Then tighten it up good. Use some anti corrosion stuff on it when you are done.

Thanks F_O_R , But this goes way beyond dirty cables at the battery. However it could be something as simple as that. But it sounds like a circuit breaker reset. It works for a minute and then everything quits again. The terminals are brand new. Thank you for answering.

If you replaced the terminal (cable end) you may not have achieved a proper connection. Check the accessory hot wire!
