'99 4.0 . I'm wondering if anyone else has had a simalar problem? I had a local shop put a new clutch in it for me recently and am now having some regrets.I'm not sure, but I have been thinking that they may have damaged the wiring going to the speed sensor, although I can't find any visable damage. I put my friend speed sensor from his tj into mine in an attemt to find out if my sensor was bad (did'nt help any) and now his jeep does the same thing. did my computer break his sensor? Is there some sort of computer reset that i'm unaware of? apart from the engine light and not having a working speedo, my jeep now stalls when coming to a stop and the cruise control won't work. any ideas? thanks.

i have a 98 4.0,when i hit a bump hard my airbag light comes on and the speedo and tach quit working.i think its a loose connection in the dash because if i hit the dash they go back to normal.is this basically the same problem?
It's either that or the connectors are dirty. I have the same problem with my 99. I just haven't allocated enough time to try and correct it.
