I have an 03 Liberty with 180k on it.
Was driving it and the battery light remains on almost immediately after driving (so I put in a refurbished battery), then after a while the information center will black out. Then the radio will black out. Then random lights will go on on the dash. It's now been sitting for a while and required a jump.
So anyways, I returned the refurbished battery and replaced it with a new battery. The problem persisted. We did pull off the alternator and it was brought in to O'Reilley's and tested a couple times, and tested good.
So it is not the battery or the alternator.
I bought a red and black cable to run new wires from the battery but my brother noticed one of the grounds looked loose. He tightened it and it tested good.
Is there a known issue such as what I am describing, and hopefully a known solution? I know it is something stupid, just can't figure it out.
