1991 Jeep Cherokee Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
This is the factory service and repair manual for the 1991 Jeep Cherokee, matched to that exact model year. The Cherokee was offered with two engines — the 2.5L I4 and the 4.0L I6 — across five trims, and it is keyed to your specific engine and trim rather than a generic multi-year range.
Engines
- 2.5L I4 — 150 cu in, OHV
- 4.0L I6 — 242 cu in, OHV
Trims
- Base
- Briarwood
- Laredo
- Limited
- Sport
Known issues on the 1991 Cherokee. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year, both involving exterior lighting: a headlight fault that can decrease lighting visibility and lead to a crash, and a separate exterior-lighting fault carrying the same reduced-visibility crash risk. Owners have filed 297 complaints and Jeep has issued 16 technical service bulletins for the year. When one of these turns up on your Cherokee, the factory diagnostic and repair procedure for that system is here to work through it.
From a routine service interval to a wiring fault behind the lighting circuit or a hard-to-trace driveability problem, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 1991 Cherokee.

IMPROPER INSERTION/CRIMPING OF THE HOSE-TO-END FITTINGS OF THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE ON THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM CAN CAUSE DETACHMENT OF THE HOSE FROM THE ABS SYSTEM, AND DISCHARGE OF HYDRAULIC FLUID.
Consequence
DETACHMENT OF THE HOSE FROM THE ABS SYSTEM CAUSES THELOSS OF THE ABS FUNCTION AND HYDRAULIC BRAKE ASSIST, LEAVING ONLY MANUAL BRAKESAND DECREASING STOPPING ABILITY, WHICH COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. DISCHARGE OFHYDRAULIC FLUID IN THE AREA OF THE HOT EXHAUST SYSTEM COULD RESULT IN AN ENGINECOMPARTMENT FIRE.

Consequence
IF THIS OCCURS, THE ABS FUNCTION WOULD BE LOSE AND REDUCED POWER ASSIST WOULD BE EXPERIENCED DURING VEHICLE BRAKING. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING LIGHTS WILL SIGNAL SYSTEM IMPAIRMENT AND THE BASE MANUAL BRAKES WILL REMAIN FUNCTIONAL.

Consequence
THE REDUCED STRENGTH CAN ALLOW THE CAST IRON WEAR SURFACE TO SEPARATE FROM THE HUB, REDUCING THE BRAKE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE VEHICLE.
Remedy
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THESE ROTORS WITH ROTORS THAT ARE COATED WITH A CORROSION PROTECTION.
