    How to Replace Cabin Air Filter in a Jeep Wrangler JK

    I figured out the answer to my question. The upper push pin snapped off which allowed me to bend the plastic grate far enough out of the way to get the filters in there. As a matter of fact there were no filters in there. I wanted to add them due to the Canadian smoke. And yes, there are 2 in...

    How to Replace Cabin Air Filter in a Jeep Wrangler JK

    I have been trying to remove and replace the cabin air filter on my 2017 JK. After removing the glove box, I see the plastic grate over the filter area. I can't get it out due to the speaker housing blocking the right half of the grate. Any clue how to get that off? I would rather not cut...

    Headlight replacement

    See my post from July 15. What you have is probably the same as mine. Factory LED option. I decided I didn't need to change anything and life is better this way.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    After about two weeks of grinding and squealing from the brakes, I took my JK to the repair guy. He found one rear caliper locked up. So I got new pads,rotors and calipers. What difference. Now it stops like when it was new. He claims this is a common problem with Jeeps. ?. I suppose at...

    What's This Doohickey?

    looks like you found the elusive low blinker fluid detector connector. Just attach it to the doomiflatchy outlet and you should be good to go.

    How can I access the heat shield without removing the muffler?

    I have dealt with those type fasteners during my career. I am surprised that Jeep thought these cheapies would last. I guess if they get through the warranty period, it would be no problem for the company. Thanks for the info. I know now what I am faced with and can plan accordingly.

    How can I access the heat shield without removing the muffler?

    Have been hearing a strange rattle/grinding noise from the rear of my 2017 jk. Found the heat shield above the muffler is loose and hanging on from one end and it's hitting the muffler. Any thoughts on how to access it to reattach it without removing the muffler?. Can't really see what holds...

    Panic button on Fob

    I don't know what Jscan is. But I don't want to disable anything that I can't reverse later. I just want to know why I can't shut off the alarm normally.

    Panic button on Fob

    That's what I thought would happen or at least when I used the Key to start it. So to prevent this from happening again, I disabled the button in the fob by covering the connection inside with a small piece of paper.

    Panic button on Fob

    I accidentally pressed the panic button on my key fob for my 2017 JK and of course the horn and lights were activated. I got in and started the engine thinking that would stop the noise. But it didn't. So there I sat looking foolish until it timed out and stopped. Here's my question. Is there...

    What did you do to your JK today?

    Installed a cold air intake. Makes a bit more noise. But that is not a bad thing. I think i feel more power too. Will find out if the mpg improves at next fill-up.

    Need help with mounting a backup camera.

    I added an aftermarket camera that I used on my old RAM truck. Mounted it under the notch in the bumper that is there for the tow hitch receiver. I don't have the tow parts so it fits nicely in there with a good view. The camera was originally a license plate mount but as the light is there it...

    Thank you. I won't be changing out the lights now. I can live without the halo effect.
