Your subject says it is a "96 GC" but in your text you seem to be talking about a "Truck."
I am mixed up.

Is this TCD sensor or anything similar a factor in CJ7's or only Cherokee's?
think of it as a truck with an interior you wash out with a plant mister rather than a hose :-)

Yes, it is called the pickup coil and I told you in another post how to test it..

Their been 3 hours spent on the truck and the problem is still not found, they connect a scan tools and they can't get anything out of it??
the truck was working perfectly before, now it look like a major electrical problem.....

no fuel or spark at the same time is too much of a coincidence for me. i would start with fuel pressure at the rail. check for bad fuel too. fuel pump is a commom problem. your running rough statement leads me to think i would start with fuel,,,assuming that all the obvious things have been checked,,,wires, plugs, etc
mic canic did pass the time by typing:
This might help.
Everything seem to lead to a bad computer, when he connect is scan tools it get not code and an error reporting to put the key on. + their is various cable that have no power. He said that their is aftermarket computer available for my GC. DC want 585 CAN + tx for a new one......
I just hope this is not a trial and error because it's getting expensive.

The computer wiring harness has a main ground tag on a bolt on the rear passenger side. There are 3 or 4 small black wires there. To complete this computer ground circuit, the mesh strap from the back of the engine head to the firewall has to be is good shape.

As per the mechanic it might be a faulty ignition cable going to the ECM that has caused the ECM to died... he his tracing the cable to find any damage.
Im totally lost in this now and it will cost me a lot to fix. too bad the damm thing did not burn to the ground.
well they got the new computer today and the jeep still does not start !!!!! now im really stuck behind the mechanic and my 0- knownledge in electric.....
