    battery terminals replacement.

    If you're talking about the terminals not tightening securely on the battery post, try searching for battery post shims. I had that problem on my MINI and the shims took the slack out of it. Worked like a champ. There are a few different types.

    Having no heat while I drive or when I put the blower on full blast

    Are both sides(Driver/Passenger) blowing "not-hot" air?

    New Radio Install

    The adapter harnesses are likely specific to the head unit you have. Another Kenwood, maybe the replacement for your obsolete one, could work with what you have. Most folks here will tell you, and I agree, to reach out to Crutchfield. They're pretty smart about these things.

    Wrangler Reliability and Satisfaction Survey

    Completed the survey. FWIW...... some of those questions are very subjective(ice/snow handling, mechanical issues, etc.) depending on mods and/or diy vs. stealership vs. "professional" shops that do the work. Just food for thought.

    13 jk ABS and traction lights on

    I was getting the ABS and ECS lights a while back. Only happened after a few hours of driving. Found my rear axle seals leaking pretty bad. Replaced seals and bearings, cleaned everything real good(degreaser soak and a pressure washer) and haven't had a problem since.

    Power stop brake issue

    I just installed my Powerstop rotors and discs this week. Did you replace the caliper and brake line yourself? Have you noticed spongy brakes? I've been looking at upgrading my brake lines and, at a minimum, a deep clean of the calipers while they're off(might upgrade to a dual piston though)...

    Regearing for 35" Tires

    I have a 2012 4dr with a 2.5" lift, 35" tires and 4.56 gears. I chose 4.56 with the intent to eventually go with 37" tires. 1st gear is definitely "granny gear", but 6th gear feels right to get me down the highway comfortably at 70mph. I won't go to 37s now due to garage door height(only 1 1/2...

    No idea what’s wrong with radio. Help!

    I'm wondering if the UConnect module would have to be reprogrammed if, say, someone had one laying around that they were willing to send for the cost of shipping? Or are they just "dumb" boxes that don't care about VIN code? Does anyone know? I replaced my HU with an Android touchscreen...

    Check engine and traction control lights (error code P0394)

    Success! No traction control lights on 6 hour trip each way. Keep your axles sealed and the wheel speed sensors clean

    Check engine and traction control lights (error code P0394)

    I also have a 2012 6-speed JKU sport and I would have similar problems on long drives(with highway speeds), but never had reduced power. I used to make regular trips between southern MD and NC on 17. It never failed, about 4 hours into the 5 hour trip, traction control and CEL would come on and...

    What do you use to keep your black fender flares from turning grey?

    2-3 coats of Rustoleum black semi-gloss. Did it over a year ago and haven't noticed any fading.

    What are the best grab bars for a 2014 Jeep Wrangler?

    Mine are the same style, but from Wild Boar. Pretty sure I got them on Amazon. The only problem I had was it interferes with the visors coming down(and back up). I pulled them off to color match the paint and carefully gave them a little twist to give some clearance.

    Check TPM System

    Same exact problem @Anybodyhome, about a month ago. Haven't carried a spare tire for over 8 months, no issues. I went through the motions though. Checked them all, all within 8 psi. Aired them up to 50 psi, bled them back down to 30-32 psi. Light still flashed for 75 seconds and then stayed...
