  1. Need help identifying connector and tube, installing pod lights

    The path inside, if you have the automatic, is the plastic plug in the firewall where the clutch linkage goes through.
  2. JK vs JT/JL who had the most problematic electrical issues

    The biggest electrical problem with the JT/JL is the habits of the drivers. If the batteries are not kept charged, it's a downward spiral toward disappointment.
  3. Needing some suggestions/recommendations.

    It depends on the state and how they treat Salvage Titles. The biggest issues I see are ability and cost to insure, and ability to sell when you are done with it. Unless you can get and keep documentation showing why it has a Salvage Title, most people will want nothing to do with it.
  4. Tazer and auto start stop

    What all these sad stories about getting stranded leave out is how they ignored the warning signs that the batteries were on a path to failure. Keeping the ESS from turning off the engine has no effect on the lifespan or charging of the batteries. The biggest problem is not keeping the...
  5. Oracle LED reverse lights.... work, dont work, blah blah

    Contact Oracle and see if you can get them to swap harnesses for the one that connects to the Tow Wiring instead of the taillight.
  6. Instrument Panels Ain't What They Used to Be (Another Rant from a Curmudgeon)

    I keep the digital speedometer up on the center display. It's only one down arrow to bring up the info screen, and then the left arrow to scroll through them all, and one up arrow to put it back. I also have a shortcut on the screen for the Off Road Pages, but usually only bring that up when...
  7. Gas tank burp.

    Here, many of the stations have the environmental nozzles that contain the fumes. I've only had it burp up one time, so far. I fill on the slowest setting possible. I usually get gas at the Sam's Club about a mile away. They have eight double-sided pumps and are always busy, so the fuel...
  8. OEM Remote Start add-on?

    To use the Jeep App for Remote Start requires a SiriusXM Guardian subscription and a factory installed Remote Start option with a cellular equipped head unit.
  9. Gas tank burp.

    Does this happen with the automatic shut-off when the tank is full, or when you try to add more to top it off?
  10. Fox Shocks Terrible Service

    Then return them as defective to where you purchased them from.
  11. Overfilling engine oil to 12L+ (video)

    Did you question the dealer about it? I did, because it was listed wrong on my first oil change. He told me that the truck got what it was supposed to have, and they had a generic entry in the invoicing system that they used for the free oil changes. I put almost 60k miles on that truck, with...
  12. Main battery and Aux Battery replacement write up

    The JT, especially with a cellular equipped head unit, has a constant parasitic draw. If the batteries are not kept charged, they will fail faster. There is a lot of heat retention under the hood, which also affects the life expectancy. The average life span, with OEM batteries, is about...
  13. A little off topic but i’m trying to increase my Jeep herd.

    I would be curious about why it is back on the lot for sale. I would be price shopping against brand new models.
  14. What is the least time you got out of your batteries?

    The IBS is reset by completely disconnecting it, suggested time is twenty minutes. Disconnect all the cables and then remove it from the negative post. Be careful with the battery cables to make sure they don't touch metal in the engine bay. Any cables attached to the negative post should...
  15. Can I add a front camera

    If you have the 8.4 Uconnect, you can use Jscan to enable the Cargo Camera input. There are many clones of the ZAutomotive package to add a front camera.
  16. 2024 Gladiator goes into limp mode - insight?

    To contact @JeepCares click on their name and then send direct message.
  17. 2020 Gladiator alternator question

    The JT has what is labeled as a Smart Charging System. The alternator output is not constant, it is varied based on System demand. What do the charger instructions say the Smart input is for?
  18. Do I need to replace my Auxiliary battery if it’s bypassed?

    The system does a test of the Aux Battery at each startup. Pulling the F42 fuse forces the test to be done on the Main Battery instead of the Aux. Attaching the Aux cables to the Main Battery has the same effect as pulling the fuse.
  19. 33% off the MSRP for 2Q 2525 jeeps.

    I don't have the patience to wait until 2525. I'd like to get one this century.
  20. 2020 Gladiator alternator question

    The best place to tap is the extra post on top of the Main Battery positive terminal where you would get power for the winch.
