Can you provide photos. Also did you by the JL used?

yes - copart purchase. easy repair to frame and srs. odd that there is no ground on # 4 or 5. No dash lights, runs and drives as it should. will get pics shortly(camera issue).
thanks for your reply

problem solved - after market plug(identical to factory obd) was inserted into obd bracket and the real obd plug tucked up under dash. got obd function now with no dash lights. So - i am left with black(male) and red(female) 16 pin plugs and a stick-on toggle with phone icon. if i run it down i will post with pics. thanks for the looks. frank

That's crazy, wonder what that thing was for?

Sounds like a GPS tracking device, they piggy back them off the OBD and tuck them out of sight.

ultimately and finally the plug is a factory/dealer installed tracker. read the damn sticker on the drivers side window and confirmed with jeep that it is still active if i wish to reconnect it.
