    Dash lights going crazy, I've tried everything

    You might want to check your turn signal multi function switch unit on the steering column. I’ve heard that it can cause all kinds of goofy stuff.

    Tow package question

    2008 Jeep Wrangler jk Sahara. I purchased this jeep about 2 months ago and finally got around to getting a car fax vehicle history report. The report shows that in 2010 a local Jeep dealer did some maintenance and installed a “tow package”. The Jeep does not have a hitch receiver ? But it does...

    Coolant type issue

    2008 Wrangler jk 3.8 Sahara. Bought the Jeep used. Coolant is a little low and I want to buy a gallon. Problem is, I don’t know what type coolant the previous owner put in the engine. From what I read, it’s a no no to mix coolant types. Do I really have to completely flush my system and start...

    Post-inspection: Should I buy this second-hand Wrangler?

    I somewhat agree with jeepmastermechanic. Ive seen post asking about low tires and someone says check your alternator ?? Not quite that bad but close. You get my point. That being said, after being on this forum long enough one will get a feeling for who they can trust the advise from !

    How do I disable TPMS alerts on my JK?

    I have a related question. If one lets the air out of the tires to say 20 lbs. the TPMS light will come on the dash. Is that all that it will do. Will the Jeep go into limp mode or something like that ?? If all that happens is the TPMS light comes on, why worry about going through the trouble of...

    Engine and cats temps

    My readings of 1200 were just normal street driving? Also there are no codes popping up either on the dash or the JScan?

    Engine and cats temps

    2008 jk, So, I received my Icar pro OBD and connected to jscan. My engine temps went from 198 F when driving and 212 F sitting at idle. I believe those are good numbers? On the other hand, JScan was reading 1200 + F on the cats ? Is this normal? I have another post where I mentioned that...
