  1. Hurricane Twin Turbo... I can only wish in Gladiator

    I agree with this. I'm leery of twin turbos. I was looking at the Lexus GX 550 and noticed that they may have significant problems with bearing failures. If not catastrophic failures, I worry about longevity. I recently sold my 2017 AMG GLC 43 which had a six-cylinder twin turbo. Great HP but...
  2. How they steal Jeeps caught on camera

    Saw this on the news Video shows police interrupting auto theft in progress outside Toronto home https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/video-shows-police-interrupting-auto-theft-in-progress-outside-toronto-home-1.6824743 Good reason to install hood locks.
  3. Jeep is Cutting Prices and Adding Content!

    I agree. I paid $54,000 for my new 2021 Rubicon. I look at the prices now even with this "discount" their much too high. The truck is great but to me it's still a "toy" car. I suspect they will begin heavily discounting towards the end of the year again when the on-lot inventory balloons...
  4. New Member, New Owner, I have questions....

    You mentioned it “went to Canada”. Was it first sold in the U.S? I’ve imported vehicles from abroad including a Wrangler from Canada. Although the paperwork is a hassle, these trucks are identical so relatively easy to import. Not sure about the warranty however, but if it was originally...
  5. Stolen 2023 Mojave

    I have the Tazer. I enabled the hood switch to activate the alarm and programmed the pin that must be entered to drive away after you start the truck. I also put an Airtag in the vehicle.
  6. An advantage of amber fog lights

    I think the same thing occurs with my Oracle amber grill lights. They are BRIGHT but not as bright as my fog lights. It maybe that people see three amber lights and think it's an alien :). Humans are limited in their ability to judge the speed of an oncoming vehicle. A great book on human...
  7. We’re screwed! [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS. MEMBERS BANNED]

    Here's what I discovered from 3 different manufacturers about what contributes to higher vehicle prices. The cost of research and development of electric vehicles. OK, I think electric vehicles are novel and entertaining, but I don't think they are ready for "prime time". Tesla hyped their...
  8. Tazer questions

    I used Tazer after I installed the auxiliary switches. It worked fine but then I started to have a problem. When I leave all the switches set to Ignition mode and drive for a few hours, the auxiliary switches will turn off. If I turn them on, they will stay on for about 15 seconds and then...
  9. Gladiator valuation.... Looked at trading

    I too looked to "trade up" from my 2021 Rubicon to a 2023 Mojave. The dealer "found" a 2023 Mojave that was well equipped. $65,875 MSRP for $48,215 with $37,500 trade on my 2021 Rubicon with 27,000 miles. I said OK and they were supposed to draw up the paperwork. The following Monday the Mojave...
  10. LED replacement bulbs blinding oncoming drivers.

    I have the factory LED lights and I get the occasional flash from drivers. They are bright. I noticed that road signs reflect much brighter as well. I drive we’re there a lot of deer and am sorry for the other drivers but as someone said, I’ve learned to look to the right to avoid the glare of...
  11. Quality of aftermarket products

    I had a 2007 Jeep Wrangler and now own a 2021 Jeep Gladiator. I bought numerous aftermarket products for the Wrangler and a few for the Gladiator so far. What I discovered is that many after market body related products do not stand up well to the elements. Products such as running boards...
  12. Aux switches turn off after 5 seconds when Jeep is hot

    I added the auxiliary switches and they were working fine. Now when I drive on the highway in 90 plus degree weather the switches turn off. when I try to turn them on, they turn off after about 5 seconds. they switches are setup to the ignition. If I change the setup to batter, they turn on...
  13. Highway driving experience 2021 Rubicon

    Just completed a 900 mile round trip along the New York thruway (87), through the mountains. I was worried it would be a pain to keep it in line. In calm winds it was fine. We hit some 30-45 MPH winds on the way back and it required more steering corrections but even in a crosswind I didn't have...
  14. What's Up with Your Web Site?

    Something must have gone horribly wrong with their systems. I placed an order 2/1`7/22 and as others have stated, the message says it should show status on 2/23/22. I sent an e-mail request for status and no response. I called them last week and they told me they would ship the order but...
  15. Mopar Aux Switch Install Testing

    Agreed! I cut off the wire on both sides of the connector and soldered on extensions and connectors. Unless you have the proper tools to extract and insert the Molex pins I suggest don't try to do it with conventional tools. I installed two LED lights up on the cowl and made some brackets to...
  16. Mopar Aux Switch Install Testing

    Thanks for the help folks. It was a "wiring Problem" after all. 1. I deactivated the switches using Jscan, 2. I disconnected the battery 3. Unplugged the harness 4. Returned the orange wire to its original connections - I wired in some wire plugs to make this easy 5. I pulled the pins from the...
  17. Mopar Aux Switch Install Testing

    Thanks for the comprehensive procedures you followed! I purchased another OBDII adapter and Jscan and followed the same steps. Everything shows ok. However when I do a Scan using Jscan I get an error that is: U113B-00 lost communication with switch bank module. I used the Jscan reset DTC...
  18. Mopar Aux Switch Install Testing

    I tried numerous times to get the switches to work using the TAZER but still nothing. I put a scope of the orange wire and I can see the signals going through so its wired up correctly. The dash switch has 12V and ground and the orange signal wire. The UConnect has the Aux switch and I can...
  19. Mopar Aux Switch Install Testing

    Update. The red wire does show 12V and the orange wire shows 12V. Tried flashing the Tazer again but still not working. Any trouble shooting help appreciated.
  20. Mopar Aux Switch Install Testing

    I installed the Mopar Aux switch kit and flashed the computer with the Tazer. The Aux switch shows up in the setting menu but does not work. I double checked the wiring and started testing to see if I could find any wiring issues. I checked the main 5 amp fuse and it's ok and has 12v to it. 1...
