Dash board is feeling festive and lit up like a Christmas tree

[ATLTiger]

Yesterday on my way to work I randomly got dash lights to chime all at the same time. ABS, Traction control, forward collision and 4WD SERV.

And a ton of notifications accordingly. IE: Service ABS, service 4wd system, etc. Even cruise control won't work while they are lit.

Anyone else have this issue? My LE has 7200 miles on her.

Two times over the last few months I've had a Collision Warning disable the Adaptive Cruise Control. Both times it reset and went back to normal on the next vehicle startup.

I've seen it on the JKs and in that case it was a bad battery. Might check yours and the connections.

I had this on my 16 JKU. They never could figure out what was causing it. After over 200 total days in the shop I finally got so pissed off I traded it in for my Gladiator. Sometimes it is a bad battery connection ( their post clamps suck) or a loose ground somewhere. If it's not one of those two all I can say is good luck or invoke your lemon law rights if they don't find the cause quickly.

Agreed. Sounds like a bad battery connection or bad ground.

I’ll check out the connections and even the fuses. Who know. It only happened once if it becomes a bigger issue I’ll take her in

My LE did it several times the night I bought it and drove it home from Tri-City to Nashville. That was June 25 and it hasn’t happened again and it has 9800 miles on it now. I thought it had something to do with the tire change and not correcting the speedometer until I got home.

I had this happen on my 2010 JK 2dr Rubicon. It went into limp mode and I barely got it to the dealer. They diagnosed it to a faulty sway bar disconnect module. I ran that thing through deep water quite a few times.

LOL after having the ABS module replaced, the front wiring harness replaced then the rear harness replaced and everything in between. The last stay in the shop was 90 days and the roving star techs were there and finally found an over voltage return from the sway bar disconnect module they said "Well that was it, you're good to go!" First trip off road and the dash again lit up like a X-mas tree and went into limp mode.

It was then I decided ( In my mind) FCA hasn't a clue in how to diagnose electrical problems. I was so pissed off by then that I cut bait and traded it in on a new JT Rubicon. One last chance for FCA but so far so good.

Has anyone figured out the solution to this problem? I have about 15k miles on my JTR and just had the exact same issue as described in these posts start popping up. Has happened daily for about the past week.

 

[ShadowsPapa]

With one exception - which also seems to be different, an outlier, Mr._Bill's Overland (ACC and CA issue), these are all Rubicon - I see two or three LEs in the mix.
So - is it specific to the Rubicon?

 

[ATLTiger]

It's now 2 months later and I haven't had the issue again. I'm closing in on 10k miles now.

 

[ATLTiger]

1 year update: Just over 15k miles and haven't had the issue again but I haven't been driving it as much or as far.

This happened once on my 2010 2DR JKR. It was traced to the sway bar disconnect unit. Once replaced, it never happened again.
