Our first trip with the Gladiator was in March 2021. We went to South Parde Island, TX. Here is Imogene at the Texas/Mexico border. This photo looks over the Rio Grande River. Driving on the beach at South Padre Island is a blast. This was out first time in South Texas. I was surprised...

My wife and I bought a Gladiator. The Gladiator is our second Jeep, the other being a 2004 Wrangler Rubicon. We are retired and have been RV'ing since 2014. The first few years we RV'd with dirt bikes. As age and medical problems snuck up on us, we switched to a Jeep (2016). The problem...

HAHAHAHA - one day later and not working again. Maybe this is a blessing. :)

I think you got that one right. I returned to the dealer this morning. They worked a little and then went for a test drive. The stop/start still wasn't working. They worked some more and after 4 hours they returned my Jeep. All systems were working. I left in a hurry but later called the...

Here is what I have recorded for the week: 10/24 - car in for service, stop/start not working IBS replaced on 10/25 - car in shop until 10/27 for other work I picked up car on 10/27, Stop/Start did not work on the way home - display charging volts = 14.2 Driveway...

I'm finding other sources that say 5 days. Is this for older Jeep? "4/2020 Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) - Operation (Battery Control Module) - ALLDATA Repair https://my.alldata.com/repair/#/repair/article/53261/component/7053/itype/392/nonstandard/1491386/selfRefLink/false 1/2 2014 Jeep...

I got my Jeep back from the dealer today. They replaced the IBS sensor (warranty work). This is how it was documented. The stop/start was still not working when I drove home. The service manager didn't mention that (I had some other work done). If they really replaced the IBS sensor, I...

This diagram (that I found by search) seems to answer all the start questions except what signals the stop/start, i.e., triggers the PDC relay. The PCR is normally closed netting both batteries hooked together in parallel. The PCR opens when signaled by the truck system that the truck has...

I am not disagreeing with what you are saying, I was just trying to clarify the "when and where" factors. Normally, if a vehicle has good battery voltage and will not crank, then I would start looking at connections and cranking components. The Jeep battery configuration is new to me and I...

A fully charged battery with no load can read 12.8v. The OPs batteries are still connected to the Jeep. The voltage measured will depend on the state of the battery and the load.

You can't get much info from testing a battery with a multimeter unless you disconnect the batteries from the car and check each battery separately. Even then, all you can determine is the charge state. The Jeep battery system is complicated. I'm experiencing some problems with my Jeep...

I just heard from my dealer. He says both batteries tested good. He also says that in my situation, where stop/start is disabled- batteries charging message constantly, the drill is to replace the IBS sensor. I’ll post more info if the fix does not work.

I'm looking for the criteria. I haven't found it yet, but I found this: MOPAR® AND MAGNETI MARELLI OFFERED BY MOPAR REPLACEMENT BATTERY LIMITED WARRANTY Batteries found to be defective in materials or workmanship will be replaced at no charge for the part-specified free replacement period from...

I am going to insist they replace both batteries. Wish me luck.

This is really simple for me. I go out in the morning and start my truck. The message center, on screen 6, gives the message, "start/stop not working-batteries charging. I switch to the volt meter and the voltage is more than 14.1. If I drive for an extended period of time, the charging...

The Stop/Start on my 2020 is not working at times. When it is not working, it shows "Stop/Start not working-battery charging". When it is not working, the voltmeter in my truck shows high (more than 14.1v). This means that the system in my truck has recognized the battery condition and...

Here is my install story. I ended up using both spacers that come with the bumper to get space for my winch. I also used grade 8 bolts from Tractor supply instead of the supplied botls. My bumper came with stainless steel bolts and nuts. I torqued them tight when I first put the bumper on...

I have 35x11.5 Toyo AT3 tires on my Gladiator. I picked that tire because it fits inside the fender, it fits the stock wheels, and the Toyo weighs virtually the same as the stock Falken MT tires that came on my JTR. I love the tires. My Speedo is off a little, but it isn’t enough to make me...

I use this site for tire size comparisons. It not only gives the weight, but it gives the revolutions per mile, tread depth, and a sampling of prices. Tire Size Comparison

Toyo 35x11.5r17 AT 18.5 mpg (from the dash, all driving) 1" puck in front nets 1/4" after adding bumper and winch 3 grades of off-road trails isn't enough to distinguish between easy and hard. I ride on forest and mining roads. The roads are mostly bumpy with an occasional obstacle. I...
