Also double check all the fuse. Many of mine were loose and dealer popped the heed and pushed many loose fuses down you could hear them click into place. Seems to be common.

Check for loose fuses. Pop hood just in front of battery. I watched dealer click them into place. Common with diesels.

I believe the dealership did that and dis/reconnected a bunch of connectors. it's a wait and see game now.

Any news?
nothing yet. I called yesterday day and again about an hour ago. no one has returned my calls. I'm heading into town in a couple of hours. I'll be stopping by to see what they have to say.

Rats. Hopefully something simple like a bad connection or faulty pump.

update still in the shop they think it's the PCM . they are waiting for the bean counters to approve the replacement. owned it 60 days so far and it's in the shot for 20 days. No word on when they will have an answer.

Got it back Friday around noon. Drove around a while then home 60 miles. Ran around Saturday and today. Running good. i really missed it. 30 days without my jeep sucked. So they replaced the PCM and that did the trick. It's snowing so tomorrow will be a fun day.
