Having another weird issue with my KK. Every morning I take off slow because the engine isn't warmed up (so the electronic choke is on) and when it shifts to second gear you can hear the traction control kick in. This is definitely the T/C by the sounds of it and the head lights dim as they normally do in slick conditions when it kicks in. I haven't taken it in yet, because I'm sure the dealer is sick seeing this jeep...has anyone else heard of this? By the way, this is the only KK they have had in for servicing so I wondering if I picked one up with issues.

Most likely its not the traction control kicking on but its the ABS pump kicking on doing a normal check. Should do it almost everytime the kj sits over night when you first speed up.

Probably talks about it in the owners manual.
