Hello,

My ‘21 JLUR dash has been randomly going haywire. 4 lights turning on.

This is the second time this has happened.

I recently lifted my Jeep with the Mopar 2” lift, I got it installed at the dealership too.

I’ve heard this issue can stem from bad sensors.

Any thoughts?

I'm certainly no expert, but everything circled looks like suspension to me. I'd make them go through it again. They screwed something up when they lifted it.

"bad sensors" means nothing. You may have pulled a wire out of something due to the lift changing the ride height. ABS, FCW, 4WD and VSC lights all on points to loss of wheel speed input, most likely. check your front hubs, make sure the abs sensors are plugged in and wires aren't stretched tight.

Is the steering wheel straight when driving straight? If that's not recentered after a lift, the safeties will freek out like that. Otherwise, check that everything was plugged back in or not pulled too tight.

Steering angle implausible / disagreement shouldn’t kick the 4wd system off though. I know when I was messing around with my track bar setting my wheel got off about 20 degrees and all it set a light for was VSC.

I had esc and something else I can't remember lights come on until centering the wheel. So it was worth asking. Also, the 4wd light being on is why I suggested checking the harnesses and plugs.

Check all abs and wheel speed sensors on your wheels and make sure they are all plugged in properly. And your fuses lol

Thanks everyone, I’ll check out the sensors and fuses.

I will be taking it to the dealer since it’s still under warranty.

the lights are off now. They will need to charge me an hour labour, if they find the code(s) it’s all covered under warranty.

Will the code(s) still be in the history if the lights are off? Would suck to have to pay an hour of labour for nothing.

They shouldn't charge you an hour of labor if THEY put the lift on and suddenly you have these issues. Otherwise, re-create the issue and record a video at worst case.

Pop the hood and check that all your fuses and relays are fully seated. It may just be coincidence that your dash lit up like that after the lift install.

Just show them the photo you posted here - you should not be charged anything.
