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.

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...

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.

Oil change, check fluids and tire rotation.

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.

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...

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.

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...

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.

Once I got done tinkering with the coolant situation, I had these to replace: And guess what? They work! My visors aren't flopping all over the place anymore. I had been using electrical tape wrapped around that steel pin, but saw these on Amazon for $6, so what the hell...

I'll preface my plan with this: I can't remember the last time, if there was a last time, I've ever heard my high speed cooling fan run. Started over the weekend, but I either never saw the temp rise, or I missed it before the fan kicked on high. Nevertheless, I took it out this morning and...

There have been many questions regarding electrical issues posted in the forum and one of the most common replies goes back to the battery cables and the near universally accepted fact the OEM battery cables are garbage. So, my question is this, because I'm not sure if I've seen it addressed...

Exactly. And I had to mark one of the holes on each of the 5 wheels to line it up with the studs properly. Not fun trying to wrangle a 100lb wheel and tire to get it on the studs right.

This is what I meant by "capped:"

I bought these after the tire shop rounded most of the originals. And, at almost 2" tall, they still fit under the axle caps to my wheels and they're easy to get a 3/4" socket on. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089D9L8G7?tag=jkforum-20

I'm very familiar with an open t-stat. Easiest issue on a Jeep to rule out. An open t-stat will throw a code on JScan that says something like the engine is not operating up to the minimum temperature. Best way to confirm an open t-stat is to cold-start the Jeep and wrap your hand around the...

Sounds like a blend door actuator. Happened on my 2014 years ago when it was still under warranty. Could hear the clicking of the relay, but nothing worked except the AC. The shop charge was about $140, although it was covered by warranty, I saw what they were billing Stellantis for the work...

A USB port, just like an unused electrical outlet in your house, does not draw electricity until the circuit is closed (plugging something into the outlet or plugging the phone into the port. Even leaving a USB cord in the port will not close the circuit. The phone closes the circuit and draws...

My reservoir has 2 different max lines- one for cold and one for hot. These max lines tell you where the coolant level in the reservoir should be when the vehicle is hot or cold. If you filled it to the "hot" max line when it was cold, or vice versa, you're not properly filling the system. I do...

Wait.... what/how filled the reservoir to the max? Can you please explain that a little more, because it reads like you're adding coolant via the reservoir?
