    Sticking Solenoid?

    Bendix - i didnt say that bc no one knows what it is !! A sticky bendix will either / not engage, do all you hear is a whirr. Or will not disenegage / centrifugal force throws it home once the engine rpm is faster that starter. If it does not disengage , your jeep sounds like a thrashing machine.

    ABS module rebuild

    Before your guy jumps to bad abs module, he needs to thoroughly diagnose this issue. That christmas tree of dash lights can indicate any number of faults. My 06 did this and needed a wheel speed sensor. The fact that a power cycle of the key cleared it up indicates that it most likely is not...

    Someone please help me

    Dash gauge lies. It is no-where near accurate. Follow KJOwner’s post and get it checked for combustion gas in the coolant reservoir. A Head gasket failure can put combustion gas in the cooling space. Can alternately allow coolant into the engine, and into the crankcase. Pull your dipstick...

    Sticking Solenoid?

    ?? Key to start - starter cranks Key released to run - starter still runs, or , starter stops Off - all stop. I am confused on step 2 - when you release the key from start to run - if the starter is still engaged, most likely a bad ignition switch.

    Suggestions for A/C clutch?

    Maybe one of the shims got mislaid and the new plate did not have the correct air-gap. I lost one real thin one on my 06 and had to make do with a brass washer from a brake hose kit.

    That annoying warning bell/chime

    Yup - 6 - I am conservative when it comes to repair. Not much on firing the parts cannon without knowing what i need. I will test the issue until i know for sure. It could also be the evap can. I do the smoke because it is very obvious and tests the whole messy ststem in one go.

    That annoying warning bell/chime

    Hey @RussellG - I suggest for the gas cap message that you (or your mechanic) do a smoke test on the evap system. Just because the code shows gas cap does not necessarily mean it. It points you in the direction that the system itself needs attention - something as simple as a cracked...

    Help plz

    When dealing with a computer controlled system, I hate to say it, but you are not going to be able to outsmart the computer easily. If it were old school - up to mid 80’s - Yes, but with an ECU - no easy way. It wants to see all that input from sensors to decide if and how to run.

    2008 3.7L Questions Jeep Newbie Daughter's truck down.....!

    Depending on where the ‘rattle’ sound is coming from, I am going to suggest, up high? She threw a lash adjuster (known to the rest of the world as a lifter). If an intake rocker/lifter, the cyl will not build as much compression since it can’t breathe in. If an exhaust side, again low...

    Passenger Side (right side) Axle doesn't seem to be in all the way

    You may want to compare new and old axles. I * think * this is a function of how long the splines are on the new shaft as compared with what you are taking off. I don’t recall ever seeing this on my 2, but then, none are home right now, or I could roll under and check.

    Camshaft Position Sensor

    David - does your scan tool do live data? If so, see if you can find both the cam and crank sensor voltages and signals. Should be 4 PIDs in total. Right now, you are just changing parts following a code. Cleaning the grounds was a great step. Go over the wiring carefully. These beasts are...
