hello guys, I'm still trying to figure out we’re is factory Aux Switches. The switch indicator lights come on and the switches are configurable and it is working good, but I don’t know we’re is fuse and relay. Does anyone know where is the factory Aux Switch relays and fuses are? wire 1, 2, 3, & 4,

Thanks for any info you might have.

The fuses are in the fuse box, the relays in the power distribution center (I think). The wires under the hood are tucked between the battery (if 3.6L) and the side of the engine bay (not sure about diesel). The wires under the dash are above the passenger's left foot.

What bd100 said..........
Don't go messing with the fuses unless it's just to replace bad ones because they are sized for the wiring and relay capability. Don't increase any fuse size.
Not sure why you need to know the relay placement but if you look at the inside of the lid for the fuse panel, it gives fuse and relay information right in front of you.

The wires are often wrapped up and hard to recognize. There will be 4 between battery and right fender with the gas engine (like already said) and there will be 6 inside (although I have yet to find my inside ones as they are hidden and wrapped up so well I've not yet found 'em)
There's the 4 for the switches, then an ignition sourced wire and a battery sourced wire, both fuses at 10 amps if I recall correctly.

The relay box is on the driver side next to the coolant reservoir.

The fuses are behind the engine cover on the passenger side.

There are ground studs in the engine bay near the aux wires, and also in the foot well inside by the right passenger's foot, but I guess you have to remove some trim to get to the inside ones.

It is?
Not on mine. I've got my plow wiring there. (the aluminum bracket with the relays on it is what I installed for the plow)
My aux relays are in the fuse panel - spelled out in the fuse map under the cover of the PDC.

These are relays for my snow plow lighting operation -

And my factory aux switch fuses are in the fuse panel - with the relays.

NOW THIS IS INTERESTING

I installed my MOPAR auxiliary switches. I just assumed aux switches are the same from the factory and self/dealership installed.

What Trim Level is your JT?

the ones on the inside are easy to access and no trim removal necessary. They are further to the left side of the passenger footwell and are taped up really well so theyre kinda hidden and sneaky. But down there there are the 4 aux wires but also a 10A always hot wire and a 10A ignition on wire.

Yea, I was referring to the grounding studs on the side of the passenger foot well near the door, behind the trim. I wish they had made those easier to get at.

They have the same function, but the actual hardware and placement is different with a factory install. The two hot wires under the dash are also only included with the factory setup.

They're definitely not. I did this install on my Gladiator, and mine are visible from the engine bay (like in pic). My wife's Wrangler came with them from the factory, and her PDC and fuses are nowhere to be seen. They hide them away elsewhere at the factory.
