    Gascap light

    I'm no expert, but I would probably try to clean that off and reseal it before replacing anything.

    What did you do to your JK today?

    I strongly recommend replacing those factory battery clamps.

    Roof Rack Quandry

    Excuse my ignorance, but how will that device allow you to use the bike rack (top placement) and the storage rack (bottom placement) at the same time for anything beyond a child-size bike? The bicycles will still hang down onto/directly above the rack, basically wiping out any legitimate storage...

    Roof Rack Quandry

    I have both (roof rack and hitch rack) Roof rack is only on the JKU. It's great for bulky items that are not too heavy to load/unload (not awesome for a large cooler, or firewood, for instance). I do find it very useful for folding chairs and tables that never seem to fit well inside the cargo...

    Intermittent cylinder 4 misfire

    I recommend examining the wire harness at/around cylinder #4. If you feel ambitious, consider swapping the plug and coil pack from #4 w/ another and see if the misfire remains on #4. I would also consider doing a compression/leakdown test. Although rare, I recently read a post stating that...

    Anti-skid warning light?

    That could be enough. Consider getting an alignment w/ the wheel CENTERED before you spend any other $$ chasing this issue.

    Anti-skid warning light?

    I've heard of speed sensor connectors coming loose or making poor contact, resulting in error codes as if the sensors are failing. If it were me, I would give a thorough inspection of the sensor connections (probably even adding dielectric grease as a barrier to future corrosion & faulty...

    2016 Jeep Wrangler JK won’t start and has a "hot oil" message on dash

    Reach out to them. They may not have any cores for your vehicle… they also offer repair services. Not sure if that’s an option on yours, depends on what has failed. If you opt to repair yours, they will advise regarding the process and cost.

    2016 Jeep Wrangler JK won’t start and has a "hot oil" message on dash

    I replaced the TIPM in ours with a unit from here: Goecm.com Cost was WAY less than the dealer.

    Anti-skid warning light?

    Can you scan for any codes?

    LED low beam headlights too bright for oncoming traffic

    I call bullshit. Aim your lights properly and this problem will go away.

    Lightning bolt on dash limp pedal and 3 codes

    This is how my trouble started... intermittent electrical issues and warning lights, followed by codes, & limp mode. My root cause was shorting wires at the oil pressure sensor, but since this circuit uses the same 5V reference signal as several others, it is difficult to determine which...

    Full sized cargo liner

    My approach to this would be to build a template from chipboard or cardboard, making sure to minimize any details or intricate shapes/cutouts. Once the template is complete, lay it on the floor of the garage or workspace and get some measurements. I'm fairly sure that the size required would...

    Android radio users; what apps do you find useful or necessary?

    Thanks for the reply. I bought this one: IYING 6GB+64GB Wireless CarPlay... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QXPHBMC?tag=jkforum-20 I’m happy with it, I just think it could be way more functional than it currently is.

    Android radio users; what apps do you find useful or necessary?

    I upgraded to an Android radio a couple of years ago, and I really appreciate the Carplay interface for navigation, audio options, etc. but I feel like I'm not taking full advantage of this radio's capabilities. While I have the standard apps on my phone, the Carplay function isn't much help if...

    Bouncing Rear Seat

    Some time ago, I read a post that showed a factory strap that secures the rear seat when folded, but for the life of me I cannot find it now. It MAY have been posted in a different forum though, as I follow a few for Wrangler lineup.

    3.6 Pentastar Misfire on Cylinders 1, 3, & 5

    Given the description of the issue and the solution provided, I think a vacuum leak under the intake is a great possibility, but how would that have caused all 3 cylinders to be so lean instead of only 1 of them? Was there any evidence of a failed seal (pinched, damaged, etc.) on the injectors...
