    White Smoke in Reverse with Trailer

    Hi All, Have a utility trailer that is empty. Jeep is a diesel engine. Sometimes (not every time) when I put it in reverse I get some white exhaust. This does not happen when the trailer is not attached. Appears to only be when I'm in reverse up a slight incline. Any thoughts? Again, only...

    No Starting Situation

    So here is what it was. There was a replacement key made for the vehicle before I bought it. Turns out it was a bad key. Through some combination of a bad key and disconnecting the battery, the SKIM module shorted out. There was no way I was going to fix it! Working now!

    No Starting Situation

    Thanks for the detailed response! Battery was removed, checked, recharged, cleaned, and replaced. Voltage across the battery is about 12.5 V. I will have to check grounding of both the battery and engine. Steering column panels are off. Everything else I will need to work on today. Thank...

    No Starting Situation

    Also! I did remove a relay from under the hood. Can't remember which one, but it is back in. I have also switched relays around to no avail.

    No Starting Situation

    Hi All, I've hit a predicament. While trying to see if there was cut wire to my side mirrors (I did not find one) I managed to do something and now the Jeep won't start... Here is what I know. Per Jeep instructions, I removed the negative side of the battery connector to prevent an airbag...

    Side Mirrors Not Working

    Hi All, Pulled off the panel on the driver's side door to try to remedy my power mirrors not working. Pulled off the switch and, according to my ohm-meter, it is working. This leads me to believe that power is not getting to the switch. Three questions: 1) How, with my voltmeter, do I test...

    Sunroof Not Working

    Figured it out! The drivers side track assembly is ruined! That is fine as I now know the problem. Took out the window and the sunshade to figure it out. Downside is it isn't sealing correctly so I need to order a new one and get it fixed ASAP before I have to drive in the rain!

    Sunroof Not Working

    Much appreciated! While I'm waiting for a reply, may I ask you a couple of questions forum related? 1) How do I delete a post that was a mistake? 2) How do I edit a post I've already made? 3) How do I change my avatar?

    Sunroof Not Working

    Hi All, I am now the proud owner of a 2005 Jeep Liberty Diesel. Color me surprised as up until I walked on the lot yesterday I was looking for an F250 diesel! Drove it a long ways home (about 150 miles) and I love it already for everything I need it for. It is in great shape, which is...
