Tps, used 5v reference from pcm, tv cable, output speed sensor, neutral drive reverse position switch, i think your brake cable is brown, the wire for the brake switch in my 96 tcu is white and pink, i just wired it to ground, the wiring diagram for your cherokee is confusing but in your case check if the brake signal is working

Hey thanks for the info! That diagram should help. Maybe I just need to completely separate the TCU from the ECU. I'm assuming yours is not linked to the Cherokee's ECU? Are you using it at all for gauges etc?

I am using the 5v reference for the tps and its ground from the pcm, the tcm i have doesn't have the reference voltage, yes im using the computer for the gauges, i think i have a bad crank sensor cause i have no signal or rpm detected by the pcm and the tach doesn work

Ok, thanks. I'm getting a false tach reading, it's @ 500rpm fast so I think that may be giving my tcu something it doesn't like and keeping it from lock-up. I think I need to separate any feedback between the two.

the tps needs on idle between .40 volts and.70 volts, if notthe tcu will think it has a bad tps and it will ignore it, shifting in specific speeds rather than calculating it, no lockup also
