I did see some oil there on the corner and there was some residue on the sensor wires below where they meet the sensor. The oil on the corner of the valve cover was pretty minor and I couldn't tell for sure if it was the from the valve cover or the PCV. Might have been PCV as there was some oil...
While this thread is about 15 months stale, I just wanted to say thanks to the folks on it. Saved me a lot of time and trouble with a misfire issue I was having. I was getting these 4 codes:
P0137 "Oxygen sensor for Bank 1, Sensor 2."
P0171 "Fuel System 1 Lean"
P0300 "Multiple...
I believe you, but just sayin... Mine definitely did NOT let air out. Blew my cheeks off trying and even tried compressed air, but did not measure PSI. There wasn't even the slightest progress of pushing air through it.
I peeled the pill bottle seal off for my 2019 JLU. I mean, what's the point of a breather tube if it doesn't breath??? If the seal was meant to be there and blow out if PSI is too high, it sure can withstand a lot of PSI through the long narrow tube (ever tried a snorkle over 18"?) and the pad...
I tried something similar with my last go around. It didn't help that much, but that last fin sticks out much more than what I tried. I then purchased an Aerolidz. That worked better but still not great. It eliminated the wind buffeting on the soft top, but still I still had a fair amount of...
Yep. Nearly blew my cheeks off my face with no luck. Tried to bluntly puncture and put compressed air into it just because I was curious. I didn't get a pressure reading, but it's absolutely amazing how much pressure those pill bottle type seals can take. I imagine all the wadding that was...
I ran into something today and I thought I'd post a word of warning. I noticed that my rear pinion seal on my JL was leaking, dripping, and generally causing a mess in my garage and on the undercarriage. Checking the usual culprits, I looked to see if the breather tube was clogged and indeed...
This is very similar to what happened to me. Wipers, dash lights flashing, etc, and run button to turn off did nothing. I had to disconnect both negatives at the battery terminal to shut it off. If you want to try and diagnose yourself there a a couple simple things you can try:
1.) Make...
FWIW - If I'm not mistaken, the Tazer setting to turn off AutoPark will also turn off the backup sensors (if you have them). I ran into this, but I suppose its possible there are two different flags/settings, one that turns off AutoPark only and one that turns off AutoPark + Other stuff, and I...
As you mention, if your switch is hooked up to ACC/Run only power then that can't be cause, unless you have a relay stuck open in the PDC. If the switch was on, then you may be onto something. When my CAN-BUS was shorting, the vehicle would not turn off if running, and even if just in ACC/Run...
Harvs, sorry you are having to go through this. It's very frustrating and the I believe the simple truth is that most dealerships (at least here in the US) don't really know how to diagnose and troubleshoot electrical issues. I don't know why they can't diagnose a simple short or a parasitic...
Jay, that was an awesome and very thoughtful explanation. Thank you so much for taking the time! I can confirm that CAN-BUS is indeed twisted pair. In my own case what was happening is that the pair had been shorted together and each of the + and - were reading 2.5v. So with no differential...
I missed that. Makes perfect sense to me based on my own experience. What's surprising is that most techs at most dealerships really have no idea how to work through electrical issues. Most of the skills are in turning wrenches on more mechanical issues. They end up calling FCA Star (or...
When I had a short on the CAN-C, my infotainment was locked out too. It said it needed the VIN/PIN combo, but when the short was diagnosed and unhooked from the star control block, it came back to life. I'd be a little worried that this is just a symptom of the root cause short. I'd even be...
I took another look at the CAN-BUS C wiring diagram. Most (if not all of those) are from CAN-BUS C. I had a similar report on mine, but about half the length. When I had an issue it was EPS (C3 Connector), but the Sway Bar Disconnect (C12) is somewhat notorious from what I have read. as several...
My money is still on something shorting out at CAN-BUS C. The star connector behind the glove box has all the goodies plugged into it and one short tends take everything down. All of these are on that BUS; Cluster, Power Steering Pump, Occupant Restraint Controller, Powertrain Control...
Exactly. I just got through dealing with a similar issue on my JL. The EPS was replaced with PSC hydraulic steering and ram. The CAN-BUS C3 (EPS connection) was shorting out and the JL went absolutely nuts with every system failing. I couldn't even turn the JL off. I had to disconnect both...
It may not be the speakers. Mine does it too, but continues to do it after the door harness is unplugged, so it's probably not electric. Worth checking.
Just wanted to close the loop. In the end, after much back and forth and involving Jeep Cares, a new TC was covered under warranty. I won't get into all the details on this thread, but the nightmare's continued with service department (Rairdon's Kirkland, WA), and I didn't get my jeep back for...
That's good suggestion, and I just might try it to delay the expense and the inevitable for a while... It's certainly a great trail fix. As amazing as JBWeld is, I tend to think that it would eventually come undone...
