Think I got an electrical gremlin going on. The other day I was watching my battery volts and they were hovering in the low 14s while driving. Just now while driving home they would stay solid at 12.7 any time I had my foot on the gas and any time I let off they would slowly climb up to 13.7 and hold. When I got home and put it in park they dropped to 12.7 and stayed there even when giving it gas. In addition my start stop says it is disabled due to being in battery protection mode. Also my tire pressure screen is missing from my vehicle info tab. I had the Jeep in twice recently once for the cruise control recall and then for a service traction control warning. Any ideas what may be going on here?

The battery voltage is normal, there are a few threads about it. As far as the battery protection mode warning, run out there and press down on all your fuses to make sure they are seated (yep, threads on that too) and if it doesn't clear it then you might have a blown fuse going to the secondary battery, contact the dealer.

Hi homebrew,
