Where is the fuel reset button located on a 1997 Jeep Cherokee?

There is no fuel reset button on a 1997 Jeep Cherokee (or any other vehicle, for that matter, that I'm aware of). The fuel system doesn't work that way. Fuel systems are controlled by complex electronics and sensors.

If you're having fuel-related issues, such as a stalling engine or difficulty starting, the problem is *not* solved by a reset button. You'll need to diagnose the underlying mechanical or electrical problem. This could involve checking things like:

* Fuel pump: Is it functioning correctly?

* Fuel filter: Is it clogged?

* Fuel injectors: Are they delivering fuel properly?

* Crankshaft position sensor: A faulty sensor can prevent the engine from starting.

* Mass airflow sensor: This sensor measures the amount of air entering the engine and affects the fuel delivery.

* Computer (PCM): The powertrain control module can malfunction and cause fuel delivery problems.

You'll likely need to take your Cherokee to a mechanic for proper diagnosis and repair.
