If you plan on keeping the Jeep, let the dealer fix it and then epoxy the new sensor using the DIY on the forum. I was able to fix mine with the epoxy but that doesn't work for everyone.

I’m confused, not all that uncommon, unfortunately. Just talked to my dealer’s parts dept., and the guy said that the sensor kit was available, but he’s on back order, but told me of dealers near me that had them. He said it consisted of 5 sensors around the locker itself, inside the pumpkin. I’m going to hit up my dealer to fix it, and ordered a real AMERICAN Z-loc from Northridge for the mean time. ???
Not sure what epoxy the new sensor means and where I might be enlightened on the forum, I’m relatively new here, and compounding the problem , I’m computer/forum illiterate!
Thanks, don’t mean to be a PITA.??

Got it, and thanks. Seems like a lot of work to fix a known Jeep issue. Since I’m under warranty, either jeep fixes it, and/or I’ll have a bypass dongle. Blows my mind that this hasn’t been fixed over time By FCA/Stilantis.
cheers, and Merry Christmas to all!??

Thanks for everyone’s input. Ordered an AMERICAN Z-loc, and checked with my dealer, whom I like, and it’s going in Tuesday for a sensor replace. I talked to parts yesterday, and he said he normally stocks the sensor kit but was on BO. My service pal today said he’d get from another dealer in the area. So they’re out there. Glad I bent over for the extended warranty From MOPAR. Fingers crossed!

Save yourself the hassle and just get the harness.

Is it fake?

Z automotive is very up front about the fact that their cables are from China. I highly doubt Northridge is doing business with someone selling fakes. Amazon and eBay are another story.

I see I couldn’t tell if that was your point or if you were really asking. On this forum it’s safer to assume it’s sarcasm and go from there. Lesson learned. 🤓

All our Z-Auto stuff comes direct from Z-Auto. Good product, good people.
