Hello all,
Recently my JL has been going nuts to the point where it won't allow me to shift into gear, or if driving it won't shift gears. 70+ Codes end up popping up and it appears to be a failure of the CAN bus as many modules throw that same code. So yes, I've googled and also searched here and it seems many have the same issues. I've myself load tested the batteries as well as have the dealer do so, I've disconnected the aftermarket auto start and also have checked for chaffing wires near the bell housing. I've also saved tons of data on various sensors while driving, but nothing seems concrete yet.
I've also hooked up an oscilloscope onto the CAN bus and you can clearly see the bus go below voltage thresholds before the dash lights up and goes nuts with warnings.
I have it at the dealer now and they are also perplexed and just sent me a text saying that the PCM will send multiple codes when it's on the ground but not on the lift.. That is a new one to me, and they are still working on it, but figured I'd ask here to gather as much data as possible. Hopefully someone has something to add that I haven't seen here, or thought of yet. Thank you
