Anyone still doing this? trying to figure out the sensing wire for my 99 jeep cherokee 4.0

My friend had a 1996 Cherokee with the 4.0 and it was externally regulated from the factory. Had a field terminal and everything. If that's the case with yours you could just get one of the blue transpo regulators and wire it up

Yes those do work for my setup but I am still going to attempt the diodes tonight. Only have two wires on the plug for my jeep so It shouldn't take long and if neither work I'll solder them back together.

I know this thread is old but i found something that might be useful

i have gotten the diodes to work on mopar alts, i have a 05 pacifica and the alt only has the 2 field wires

In my case i tapped into the wire from the fuse box to the pcm (in my case fuse39 org/red wire) that is unswitched with ignition

the pcm reads and adjusts your voltage based on this wire

it's a 20a fuse so i used a 30a Schottky diode

my voltage went from 13.6 to 13.9 hot (still 13.6 at pcm)

I'm going to order some more diodes from mouser to do a bit more testing
