Me too.

If the light does not come on, something else is the matter. Well, the bulb
could be burned out, but it isn't very likely.

Correct, but there are hoses leading to and from the vacuum switch
sitting on the transfer case atop shift rods, to the vacuum sensor
switch that some have said may be on the cowl inside with the engine,
that they occasionally squire penetrating oil into to make thier light
work.

AFAIK there are no vacuum switches on the 98 cherokee T case. There wasn't
on my '93. The 4x4 indicator is controlled by a mechanical contact switch,
not vacuum.Perhaps you could post the PDF that shows a vacuum switch on the
'98 cherokee. If there is no vacuum disconnect, why would there be a vacuum
switch?

The vacuum switch on the t-case seems to be problematic on the newer
Cherokees. Lots of folks have replaced it with someone saying their
parts store carried a lot because they go through them fast.

Hi Mike,
They may have switched them to an electrical like the TJs:

But, I wanted Matt, to crawl under his and see for himself. ;-)
