H-1. GENERAL
All
'Jeep' Universal vehicles are equipped with 12- volt electrical systems. Use caution around the higher
voltage
of the 12-volt system as accidental

short
circuits are more capable of damaging electri­
cal
units. Also, arcs around the 12-volt battery are
more apt to ignite any gas that may be escaping

from
it. In the following paragraphs
will
be found
information about the battery, distributor, coil,
generator, alternator,
voltage
regulator and start­ ing motor. These units with the connecting wires,

make
up the
engine
electrical system. The wiring
diagram
will
show the different circuits of the en­

gine
electrical system and the various units which
make
up
those
circuits.

With
plastic-covered wiring harnesses use only

rubber-insulated
wiring clips.

Caution:
All current production vehicles are 12- volt, negative ground. Whenever servicing a 12-
volt electrical system, use caution, as an accidental

short
circuit is capable of damaging electrical units. Disconnect battery ground cable before changing

electrical
components.

H-2.
Battery

The
battery is a storage reservoir for electrical
energy produced by the alternator or generator.
The
battery should store sufficient energy for
operation of the entire electrical system when the
alternator
or generator is not pr 1,scing output,

such
as when the ignition is first turned on. Of

particular
importance is maintaining the electrolyte
at the correct level, regularly checking with a
hydrometer, and maintaining clean, tight cable connections.

Battery
service information is given in this section.

Caution:
Do not allow flames or sparks to be
brought near the vent
openings
of the battery since
hydrogen gas may be present in the battery and might explode.

Note:
The liquid in the battery (electrolyte) is a
solution of sulphuric acid which, on contact, can

injure
skin or
eyes,
or damage clothes. If it is spilled
on the skin or spattered in the
eyes,
promptly flush
it
away with quantities of clear water only. If the

acid
is spilled on clothes, wet it thoroughly with a

weak
solution of ammonia, or with a solution of sodium bicarbonate or baking soda.

Caution:
When installing the battery, the nega­
tive terminal must be grounded. Reverse polarity of the battery can cause severe damage to the charg­ing system.

Battery
Inspection

a.
Check
the specific gravity of the electrolyte in
each cell of the battery. A hydrometer reading of 1.260 indicates that the battery is fully charged.

If
the reading is 1.225 or below, the battery
needs

recharging.
If one or more cells is 25 "points" (.025) or more lower than the other cells, this in­
dicates that the cell is shorted, the cell is about to

fail,
or there is a
crack
in the battery partition in
the case. Unless the battery is repaired or replaced, battery trouble
will
soon
be experienced.

b.
Check
the electrolyte level in each cell, add

distilled
water to maintain the solution [9,5 mm.] above the plates. Avoid overfilling. Replace
the filler caps and tighten securely. It is important to keep the electrolyte level above the plates at all
times because plates that are
exposed
for any
length of time
will
be seriously damaged.

c.
Check
the wing nuts on the hold-down frame for tightness. Tighten them only with finger pres­

sure,
never with pliers or a wrench. Excessive
pressure
could damage the battery case.

d.
Clean
the battery terminals and cable con­ nectors. Prepare a strong solution of baking soda

and
water and brush it around the terminals to
remove any corrosion that is present. The cell caps must be tight and their vents sealed to prevent
cleaning solution entering the cells. After cleaning,
connect cables to battery and coat the terminals

with
heavy grease.

e.
Inspect the battery cables and replace if badly
corroded
or frayed.
Check
tightness
of terminal
screws to ensure
good
electrical connections.
Check

the
tightness
of the negative ground cable con­nection at the frame to ensure a
good
ground
connection.
f.
Load
test
the battery. Connect a voltmeter across the battery. Run the starting motor for 15 seconds. If the
voltage
does
not drop below 10
volts the battery is satisfactory. If the
voltage
falls
below the figure given, yet the specific gravity is
above
1.225,
the condition of the battery is questionable.

Should a

H-13. Distributor Points
a. Examine the distributor
points.
If
they
show

wear,
poor
mating, transferred metal, or pitting,

then
new
ones
should be installed. Clean the
points

with a suitable
solvent
and a stiff bristled brush.
b. Check the
alignment
of the
point
for a full,
square
contact.
If not correctly aligned, bend the
stationary
contact
bracket slightly to provide align­
ment.

c. The
contact
gap should be set at .020"
[0,508
mm.],
on the F4 and .016"
[0,406
mm.] on the
Prestolite V6. Adjustment of the gap is accom­ plished by
loosening
the lock screw and turning adjusting eccentric screw until correct gap is
secured. Be sure that the fiber block on the breaker

arm
is resting on the
highest
point
on the cam while the adjustment is
being
made. Recheck the gap
after locking the adjustment.
d. Apply a thin film of cam lubricant to the cam to
lessen
fiber block wear.
e. Using Tool C-4094, check
point
contact
spring
pressure, which should be
between
17 and 20

ounces
[0,487
a
0,567
kg.] on the F4 and 17 to 22 oz.
[0,487
a
0,624
kg.] on the Prestolite V6.

Check
with a spring scale
hooked
on the breaker

arm
at the
contact
and pull at right
angle
to the
breaker arm. Make the reading just as the
points

separate. Adjust the
point
pressure by
loosening
the stud holding the end of the
contact
arm spring
and slide the end of the spring in or out as
neces­

sary.
Retighten the stud and recheck the pressure. Too low a- pressure will
cause
engine
missing at
high
speeds.
Too high a pressure will
cause
rapid
wear of the cam, block, and
points.

Parking
and
Turn Signal Light
The
parking lights are mounted in the radiator

guard
panel just below the headlights. These lights

are
on only when the main switch control knob is
pulled
out to the first notch.

To
replace a parking lamp, remove two screws allowing the lens and colored reflector to be re­
moved. Replace the lamp, which is recessed back

in
the housing.

If
the
complete
parking light assembly is to be
removed for service or replacement, disconnect the

wire
plug at the back of the housing.
Then
remove
the nuts and lock washers securing the parking light assembly and remove out the front of the

panel.

H-134. Tail, Stop
and
Turn Signal Light

Refer
to Fig. H-57 and H-58.

The
tail
lights are mounted in the
rear
corner
posts

of the body. They are on whenever the main switch
control
knob is pulled out to any position.

a.
To replace a lamp, remove the snap ring on

early
models
and remove the lens; on late
models
remove lens screws, lens and gasket.
Clean
lens
and
reflector before replacing.
b. To remove the parking and
tail
light housing,
disconnect wiring, remove the two nuts and lock
washers securing
tail
light assembly to body and remove from
rear
of body.

Backup Lights •
Refer to Fig. H-61.

The
backup lights on late production vehicles are located on the

Windshield Wiper System

Early
production vehicles equipped with
the
Dauntless V-6
engine
have
two
single speed wind­
shield wiper motors mounted above
the
windshield inside
the
vehicle. The wiper motors
are
operated

and
controlled
by a
switch located
on the
instru­
ment panel.

Current
production vehicles with stationary wind­
shield have
a
two-speed
electric windshield wiper motor mounted below
the
windshield outside
the

vehicle on the driver's side. The wiper motor switch is located
on the
instrument panel
to the
left
of

the steering column.

H-142.
Two-Speed Wiper Motor

The
two-speed
electric wiper motor
is
operated and
controlled
by a
turn
type, three poled, dash switch,
containing
a 6
amp. circuit breaker.
Current
flow
is directed from
the
battery through
the
ignition
switch
to the
wiper dash switch assembly
to the

two-speed
wiper motor, which passes current from the designated motor brush (high,
low or
park)
to

the armature circuit
to
ground.
