Hi! I have a 2019 rubicon. Recently my dash turns off like it’s rebooting and then comes back on but it does this every 21 seconds. Exactly 21 seconds every time. Earlier in the year I had to replace the integrated power module because of all the lights coming on (and other things) but the engine light would always stay on. This time the engine light doesn’t stay on. Anyone have any ideas?

Mine does that when I open the door just to put something in or get out. Putting the ignition in on or run (not acc) giving it a few seconds, then back to off stops it. I noticed after it barely started and watched for why the battery was almost dead, trial and error found the remedy.
It started (was noticed) after a Tazer install and I did the sleep cycles, a coincidence ? 🤷🏼‍♂️

it doesn’t seem to do it when I open the door. However, I just noticed as I was waiting to pick up my kids it finally stopped doing it. Maybe it is just when it’s cold?? These aren’t the first cold days though. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Someone else reported the same as mine. If they went through the normal turn off and exit routine it also stopped. Mine will also do it after a normal stop if it takes time to unload groceries etc. annoying 🤨

My 2020 JL did this for a while. One of my trips to the dealership for a warranty visit and it never happened again. Maybe they did a software update? Dunno. I never followed up since the problem went away and I moved on to other stuff. Would be interested if you find the cause.

I will keep you updated. So far all I can tell is when I’ve parked out in the cold and then drove. Once it warms up seems to stop 🤷🏻‍♀️ why all of a sudden now though?
