First, an introduction. My name is Matt. I currently live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, but I consider Colorado my home. I’m a military brat and military veteran, so I’ve lived and traveled in many places. I love the mountains, and I can’t imagine living anywhere...
This is the first write-up I've done here on the forums so feel free to message me if you have any questions. Ever since Joe added the ability to turn on Automatic Climate Control for those who upgraded to the 7-inch UConnect, there's been many of us who wondered how we could add the missing...
Hey everyone,
I have a 2018 JLU Sport S. Would anyone have any idea (or experience) as to whether aftermarket LED strips/lights can be wired into the stock ambient lighting control knob (left of the steering wheel). I'm assuming it can be done so long as there's enough power, but I wanted to...
Ok like many of you, I haven't been a fan of how dim the dome lighting system is, even in the 2019 model. I came across a pair of low power rock lights by Rigid and hoped I could make an improvement without making a mess of things.
Taking down the dome light fixture in the JL really isn't...
UPDATE: May 25
After in interminable wait, got a call back from FCA on Friday May 24. Rather than a official formal lemon, traded in my "old" 2018 JLUR for a "new" 2019 JLUR with a trade allowance from FCA to make up the difference between the trade in value of the 6 month old Jeep vs the new...
Hey Guys,
I have a JLU Sahara with the upgraded rear view mirror. I am looking to hardwire a dash cam into the wiring for the power rear view mirror. Does anyone have a video on how to this? I don't want to mess up the wiring in my jeep. I am new to DIY electrical stuff... What do I have to cut...
Went up in the mtns like ive done many times. Roughly 40 to 60F so no shocker temp.
Temp just didnt show.
Had to shut down engine and restart to get it to read again.
Due to the quantity and length of ESS battery and electrical related threads, researching issues can be time consuming and confusing. I am using this post to make information and related links easily available. This first post will serve as a quick reference and I'll use the second post to...
I am preparing to add wiring and switching to support new lighting and misc accessories based on the attached sketch. This is my first major wiring project (on a vehicle) and I would love some feedback on the approach. Some potential comments I am aware of that may come up:
1.) 12 AWG. Lots of...
Can anyone help?
Our brand new JLU Rubicon is having several strange electrical issues. The autostop stops working periodically for a week at a time. Other times works intermittently. The rear right LED tail light stops working intermittently as well. We also have noticed the volume not...
I wanted to wait until my JLUR was repaired and back in my hand before posting this. I recently had my Jeep in the shop for about 10 days with an electrical issue that left me stranded on the side of the road. After the first day, the dealer informed me that the Aux battery had died and that...
I was driving today and all of a sudden my Jeep dash warning light went on for low PSI. It was showing that my front passenger tire was 12 PSI. So I pulled over and get out and the tire looks fine. I keep driving a little further and it magically went away. Has anyone else experienced anything...
Just under 5000 miles on my JLU Sport S with the technology group and I started having some odd volume issues with the FM radio. The volume seems to have a mind of its own - without touching the dial, the volume drifts up and down as if the signal strength is waning, but there's no static...
I'm 99% sure this is something I caused myself, but would appreciate anyone's help in troubleshooting.
I installed diode dynamics LED bulbs on front and rear turns and DRL's, and everything was fine. Used the tazer JL to reprogram to LED's to prevent hyper flash and bulb out warnings...
