I received zero clips but that’s on par with the crappy service dept they have, maybe you should do a step by step on removing the ESS battery.Speaking of which i thought the dealer was supposed to give customers some of those clips when they bought a wrangler.....

Maybe I should just get a bag of these clips to have because I am quite sure with my luck one or more will break if I try to remove it.And technically you don't even have to remove the flare and just go from underneath but having the flare off just makes it easier to access with less stuff in the way... They make it easy to remove the flares anyway because its one of the common things people change
You should. In my experience, when I purchase spares in anticipation of breakage, the breakage never happens. Maybe having spare clips will mean you never break one.Maybe I should just get a bag of these clips to have because I am quite sure with my luck one or more will break if I try to remove it.
They found my main battery bad after running some testing on a GR8 tester, not sure what caused the issue but currently not using my programmer and everything is back to stock and working as designed, I would be curious to know what your idle voltage is when getting it back and also what was your idle voltage beforeJust an update for anyone that cares to know... I finally got an appointment at the dealer yesterday to have them take a look at the ESS. The main crank battery is suspect and didn't pass the tests they ran it through. New battery on order, so hopefully that's it and it won't be problem going forward. 2+ weeks ETA.
According to the Jeep idle voltage has ranged from 14.4-14.6 when I've paid attention to it. I'm also curious to know what it looks like after the battery is replaced.They found my main battery bad after running some testing on a GR8 tester, not sure what caused the issue but currently not using my programmer and everything is back to stock and working as designed, I would be curious to know what your idle voltage is when getting it back and also what was your idle voltage before
My voltage displayed was 14+ to but that’s not the way it was when I purchased it, today after sitting all night it showed 13.5 on startup and then after about 30 mins of driving at idle it dropped to the 12.6-12.8 range and like I said when I brake or just let off the gas the voltage ramps up to over 14+ and then settles down to the 12.6-12.8 range but the lower voltage does not show up until I have been driving it alittle bit.According to the Jeep idle voltage has ranged from 14.4-14.6 when I've paid attention to it.

Just posting this to add to the knowledge pool, and ill post further updates.Well after seeing lots of posts on ESS issues and then hearing about bad IBS sensors and bad ESS batteries
