Answer by expert:--

Hello sir thanks for asking the question here.

At our Auto garage repair store we deal will many vehicles in the form of truck,van,jeep facing these kind of problem.

I will share the details and troubleshooting for this problem.

Like as you already said ,If the noise happens when pressing the clutch pedal and then goes away when clutch pedal is released then that's the issue with throwout bearing.

Yes its worn throwout bearing.

Its the bearing on the clutch fork.

This bearing moves forward toward the engine when pressing the clutch. The bearing pushes against the spring fingers on the clutch pressure plate when you press the pedal and this is what disengages the clutch.

Since the only time the bearing spins and has a load on it is when you press the clutch pedal this is the only time it will make noise, and when you let off the pedal then it will stop pretty quickly. If the noise happens only when pressing the pedal and then goes away when you let off the pedal then it's going to have to be the throwout bearing.

I suggest you to get the throwout bearing inspected and replaced.

These will help.

Thanks.

Multiple problems noticed on 2000 Jeep Wrangler United States Manufactured Model.

CLUTCH GRINDING NOISE

QUESTION:----

While driving the vehicle noticed that blinkers, stereo and wipers not working.It will only work until turned the vehicle off and restarted it.

Including these problem suddenly other problem arise after that, It is the clutch grinding issue. The clutch grinds when the clutch pedal is pushed in; But if the radio turns ON then there is no grinding clutch noise heard.

Is it some kind of short If not, then why the clutch would be affected by it?

More explanation about Grinding noise from the Customer who owns the Jeep Wrangler ..........

The Grind noise occurs when I turn the vehicle on; I already have the clutch pedal pushed in to start the jeep. Initially while the start there is very subtle grind noise heard but when the clutch pedal is released it stops and again next time when clutch pedal is pushed in the loud grinding noise is heard .
But what i feel confusing is that this only happens when my radio and blinkers don't work.If While i start the vehicle and if radio and blinkers start then no such grinding noise is heard.

Please Explain me Why?

Heelo customer.
Thanks for asking the problem.
I will like to share my Auto garage vehicle repair experience Suggestion with you.
As per what details you have provided, it sounds like the noise is appearing due to a failing throwout bearing.
The throwout bearing is the bearing that presses on the pressure plate to release the clutch when you press the pedal.
For your knowledge the clutch assembly system is a completely mechanical system where your other problem is electrical, and the systems are completely unrelated. Both the issues , one the radio and blinkers not working and other the clutch grind noise are two different issues.
I know it appears they problems are related and you can try repairing the electrical problem first, but it's highly unlikely that the problems are truly tied together.

Below i will explain your why these 2 issues are different problems and not related to each other:-----

The wipers, radio and turn signals not working is being caused by a bad ignition switch.It a very common problem and we at our auto garage deal with such problem regularly.
What has happened is the contacts in the switch are burnt and it's taking down a large power feed circuit. You would probably find if you moved the key forward and back a bit while it's acting up these items would come back on.
So getting the ignition switch checked and replaced if found to be faulty will help to solve the one problem.

In the same way getting the throwout bearing inspected and replaced will help to solve the other problem.

These will help.
Thanks.
