Now that it's getting warm again the JK started acting up, Jeep dash lights and warning are back. Sometimes affecting the transmission, the dash lights start flickering, HOT OIL message appears and for the most part will eventually subside some times.

Had this issue last year and spent 5 hundred dollar at dealer, they couldn't figure out, last last fall as the cold weather came the problem went away, it's back.... and I don't want to go through that again, any suggestions would help, i hope.
 
Junk OEM battery clamps can cause a slew of problems! Ask anyone on here.

Hi Sorry it took so long to get back to you.

My question to you is, is it the terminals or the cables, The positive terminal has two wires coming off of it where the negative only one, want to make sure I replacing correctly.

Thanks again

The terminals and cables are connected together. This is the setup I went with. VGate terminals and I bought a lug crimping set to put new lugs on the ends of the cables. Knock on wood...I've had zero issues with weird electrical issues since.
