    Should my 2017 JKU have lighting in the center console?

    The bulb is a Sylvania 2723 2.3W...Just replaced mine yesterday.... Make sure you pull that shift handle all the way back, so you can get a good angle while pulling on it. It's a bit tough but it will come off...I'm a little guy 6 foot 160 lbs, smaller hands..Even as small as my hands and...

    Finally got the knob off...What did it for me was pulling the shifter all the way to the rear, then I was able to get the proper angle and used my leg as a fulcrum. Pop, off it came, just keep your face back out of the way....;) Takes quite a lot of strength...I should add that the tip of the...

    Okay, this is the correct bulb for my 2017 Jeep Unlimited Sport. Not sure how many models this fits, so double check your model... Just make sure when you buy it, get the 2.3 watt, not the similar 1.1 Watt which is actually 0.015 thousandths of an inch larger. It won't fit in the socket...I put...

    I need to confirm it works first. I just got back home with it...Looks the same when I compared them...I will post the photo of the package when finished...Looks similar to a Maglite bulb. Push in type. Rod

    I saw that too...I tried to use the screwdriver a stubby one. That plastic damages very easy....I guess worse scenario, just buy a new one...

    I pulled up the console cover and got it out without pulling the knob off...Now to get it back in... :p Went to the Jeep dealer and of course they didn't have it in stock...Got a pack of two at Auto Zone... Here's the old one...

    I was just going to ask about that 4-wheel drive stick knob....Sucker looks hard to get off, like it's pressed on there. Saw some people on you tube using channel locks, vice grips etc, and messing it up...! You'd think there would be a set screw, argh...! Looks like plastic locking into some...

    That maybe too. Seems too few lights to have it's own fuse...Should be tied in with some of the others.

    I have a 2017 Unlimited Sport. Never paid much attention to this since it was new. But wife wife mentioned that the console is not lit up like the rest of the instruments, etc...at night. I ask a service rep here at the Jeep dealer about this, he said he was not sure. And that maybe it depended...
