    203 degree thermostat?

    Dodge trucks, in general, are mechanic-rated as one of the most difficult vehicles, import or export, to work on.

    203 degree thermostat?

    My 2014 had a P0128 code (engine coolant not at thermostat regulating temps) a few years back and discovered it was stuck open. I wouldn't assume that in your case as it could also be a faulty sensor or an ECM fault. So, your engine heats up to somewhere around 195-205 and the t-stat springs...

    Where I can find metal retainer clips that hold the lightbulb in the dome light of the Jeep?

    Yes, sir. Thanks. When I saw those cut wires, was thinking the connector/plug was likely on the other end somewhere.

    Where I can find metal retainer clips that hold the lightbulb in the dome light of the Jeep?

    I'm not sure because virtually every picture I've looked at on ebay or elsewhere only shows cut wire ends. If there is a plug, I wonder where it is? Wouldn't be surprised if the light wiring wasn't jumped off the harness that runs to the rear lights. In other words, down along the passenger side...

    Overheating, no heat (new parts thrown at it)

    Is it going straight to an overheat situation or is the temp gauge kind of bouncing all over the place? If the temp gauge needle is moving around a bit, that would suggest air in the system. Cold start the vehicle and wrap your hand around the upper radiator hose. If you don't feel the coolant...

    No rear lights?

    I wear 15s myself and I can vouch for the amount of care and attention I pay when driving, climbing in and out, etc. Now all you need is to get $300 worth of Jeep cleaning and detailing out of him...

    How do I fix this leak?

    You can get all your axle seals replaced for around $400-600 (USD). With winter temp extremes headed your way, that leak will likely get worse as the seals shrink in the cold weather.

    Antifreeze temp rarely gets over 175

    My fault. I didn't think that asking for a tire rotation would necessitate anyone even lifting the hood. They've not done it before and the shop owner is a vet and a Jeep gy.

    Antifreeze temp rarely gets over 175

    The OEM t-stat on the 3.6 is set at 203. Don't ask why, I don't know. When my t-stat stuck open a few years back, the CEL came on and JScan told me "engine not operating at proper temp." It's was still getting up to 180+, and it had no effect on the engine, but waiting on heat and defrost was a...

    My 07 JKU Sahara is possessed

    Best advice I can give: call this guy- Not sure he's still in the biz after Linda Blair gave him such a hard time, but worth a try.

    Check TPM System

    The TPMS receiver is located on top of the rear chassis crossmember. It looks like this: Wiring diagrams are a pain in the ass to find and I haven't seen 2 that look the same to me.

    Check TPM System

    https://www.obd-codes.com/u0127 This code means that the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) module and other control modules on the vehicle are not communicating with each other. The circuit most often used to communicate with is known as Controller Area Network bus communications, or...

    Check TPM System

    As the OP from back in 2021, I followed BLACKJKU's lead and disabled the system shortly after starting this thread. Got myself a decent quality tire pressure gauge and never looked back.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    It took a little less than 1/2 gallon of coolant in the radiator and I added little to the reservoir to get it to the max cold line. That's all on me. I keep a calendar to check my fluids, typically when I change the oil. But, now that I'm retired, I'm not driving the Jeep anywhere near as much...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Thankfully, they were 4, because I dicked one of them up with a pair of pliers trying to get the pin back into the visor.
