PRND Shifter Lights Always on?

[RubiRob]

Hey everyone,

Just noticed this today. Went out to my Wrangler and noticed that these lights were on all by themselves. I have the proximity sensor door doohickies so I put my keys in the house (in case perhaps that somehow influenced the lights), came back a few minutes later and they were still on. They are the only thing illuminated, nothing in the dash or anything else that lights up other than the red alarm led. I only noticed it today but I can't say that it just started today as I haven't paid all that attention to it. I'm assuming this isn't normal? Anyone else with this issues? I'll stop by the dealer in the morning.

Adjust the light rollers on the left of the steering wheel. One of them controls this.

Even with the vehicle off? I just tried and nothing turns it off. One brightens and dims it but nothing let's it turn off.

Confirmed: both did nothing to remedy it.

Are your doors open or closed? If close, did you wait long enough for the dome lights to go off?

Yes, I even came back 30 minutes later.

That is weird, I guess have the dealer check it out. They have been "on" since you got it?

Will do. :-(. Any idea if a battery pull would fix it? Could it be computer controlled?

No idea really, maybe a wiring issue.

Did anyone figure this out? This is happening to mine. The push brake to start message also flashes on my screen. Its killing my battery! I've have to jump off my jeep a dozen times. Never dose it at the dealer so they wont do anything....

Sounds different but yes they replaced the shift assembly and it went away. My battery never died tho and I even unplugged the main battery overnight.

Did this fix also work for you? I have a similar issue with myRubicon X?
