Hi all,
I’ve been scouring the forums for answers, and it’s been a struggle to identify what exactly could have gone wrong with my 2018 2-door JLR 2.0 4-cyl.
Last weekend, I installed the MOPAR LED kit (part no: 82215136AC) complete with the wiring harness/4th pin installation. This was the first real modification of my Jeep and I followed the detailed 30-pages of instructions step by step. First step was to disconnect the negative leads to the battery, including the battery sensor, which I did.
yadayada.. (I can scan/post the instructions if anyone would like to see them) update: here are the instructions I used
After passing the 4th pin into the BCM C1 A slot, as instructed, I re-connected all BCM slots and hooked up the headlights to validate that the electrical portion was complete/functional. When I re-connected the battery, I heard the relays engage like normal. But when I made my way to the dash and hit the run/start button, the dashboard lit up with probably every warning/error light imaginable. I saw something about the transmission requiring service, the start/stop requiring service, etc, it was pretty scary. Since then my Jeep has been a $40K paperweight, below I have some screenshots of what the cabin looks like now.
The PRND lights, normally mostly white, are all orange
Driver info screen is stuck on "Press Brake and Push Button to Start" screen
Radio is asking for an anti-theft code
Since last Sunday, when this happened, I've tried a couple of things :
- I went back to the battery, disconnected it, and undid the wiring in the BCM, same situation
- connected the old halogen headlamps, just swapping out the connectors, to see if the LEDs were the problem, but no difference
- I noticed the 12V battery was below 12V (11.3V), so I've trickle-charged it to 11.8-11.9V, no luck
- I've tried jump starting the vehicle, no luck
I couldn't get an appointment with the dealership until today, so I've been out of my daily commuter all week. I'm currently waiting on Mopar Roadside Assistance to get someone to tow me over.
@JeepCares not sure if you can lend a hand here but anything is welcome a this point.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
