SWITCHDOCTOR Window Master Switch for 1997-2001 Jeep Cherokee (56009449AC, 68171681AA)

I've owned my XJ for nearly 15 years and for much of my time only the driver could control the windows. Usually not a problem but occasionally it is.Eventually, I decided to stop procrastinating and do something which ultimately involved installing this switch assembly.Compairing appearance, it looks identical. The toggles have a good feel, unlike the other more expensive assembly I tried which was quite stiff and a bit crunchy.Installation was no different than if using an OEM part ($$$).After install, everything works as it should. All windows work from the driver's seat. Each other door can control its window.Price was good, if the assembly doesn't last for another 25 years, I can replace it with another.

Looks good. Functional. Easy install and fit perfect. Good value.

Like the headline says! Easy replacement for one that stopped working correctly. Went into a 2000 Jeep XJ. Very happy with the purchase!

Very good price and worked. I bought one that was around the same price but it didn't work.

This is identical to the original and it looks perfect and it works absolutely perfect. Everything from the child lock to the mirror adjust and to the auto window up and down. Everything is perfect.Thank you to this company for making really good equipment and I'll definitely buy other switches from you too whenever something comes up 😀

I've had 3 of these now. They last about 2 years before they start to fail. But being so cheap and easy to install, I'm not complaining.

When it comes to repairs, Jeep Cherokee XJ owners fall into three categories. 1. The part breaks and they take it in to get it fixed. 2. The part breaks and they they to fix it themselves (which usually works). 3. The part breaks and they simply don't fix it. One thing about us Cherokee owners is that we tend to either be frugal, or we refuse to replace the Jeep because we love the darn thing too much! Well, my 2001 Cherokee fell victim to a passenger window motor that kept getting slower and slower and eventually would not go up (on a freezing day, of course). I also noticed that my passenger window switch was no longer lit up, telling me that electricity in some way, shape or form was not getting over there.I scoured the XJ forums and discovered that the culprit was either the window motor, or the lock out switch on the driver's side was faulty cutting off the juice that makes it over to the passenger window. Naturally I tried the cheapest fix, which was the passenger window regulator/motor which only cost me $25, brand new on eBay. I replaced it and that didn't fix the problem. I did a bit more investigating online and found out that with a paperclip, the removal of a kick panel, and some jerry rigging, I could bypass the lockout switch which restored power to my passenger side (note: I will not give you instructions on how to do this for liability reasons but you can find it online and on youtube if you look around. UNHOOK the battery before you do the paperclip thing or you will electrocute yourself). This confirmed that it was indeed the lock out switch on the drivers side.The only other solution to my problem was to replace the master power windown/lock switch cluster. I called the dealership and refused to pay over $100 for this part so I checked Amazon and sure enough, I scored this brand new replacement unit from the Switch Doctor. While I will agree with other reviewers that yeah, the build quality may not be as robust as the Jeep original, it works, and that is all that I care about. And I got it for half of the price of a Jeep original part. The lights on the switches are brighter than the stock unit and the switches all function exactly like the originals and I was excited to see my windows working fully again!I do recommend you watch a few youtube videos (Dorman makes the best one) on how to remove the panel if you have never done it before. Also, get a body panel trim removal tool from your local auto parts store and you will save your hands as well as some panel clips in the process. Good luck!I apologize for telling my complete story about the diagnosis and fix on the Cherokee but I'm sure there are a ton of other XJ owners out there that are dealing with or have dealt with the same situation that I did and this new switch from the switch doctor will not let you down. Again, stop complaining and buy that darn part!!!

Its been a while but I think it worked fine .
