Replying to: robertjenkin (Aug 31, 2009 6:39 am) Two possible causes spring to mind. First is an intermittent bad connection/ground/wiring fault, probably in the column or dash area. Because of its occasional nature the easiest way to track it down is to access the wiring in those areas and just wiggle things around until the fault appears. You can often narrow it to one connector or a few inches of wiring loom that way, and then you can go in with a circuit tester to find it precisely.   Second, it could be the PCM. If so it should still be covered by your emissions warranty, even though you're over the mileage for your 3/36. Check your handbook for details.   However, the thing that puzzles me the most is the uncommanded activation of the screen washer. AFAIK the PCM plays no part in its operation, so it would have to be activated either by a faulty switch (which could possibly be the cause of the whole problem anyway), or by a direct short. I'd start my investigation with that switch and the area surrounding it.

My daughter loves our 1990 wrangler - she likes the round headlight look. Do any of you know if used or new front body fenders-grill-hood will bolt onto our 1990 yj ? Replies to this message: erickpl (Sep 24, 2009 12:04 pm) tjd241 (Sep 26, 2009 5:22 am)
#190 of 193 2004 WRANGLER X - NEED TIRES by hiker2023 Sep 24, 2009 (10:56 am)
I have a 2004 Wrangler X with 81,000. The first time I had the Death Wobble was this summer (I live in PA) going 70 mph. Was not fun. I replaced the steering stablilizer (the shock on the factory one was worn out). This seems to have solved the problem. Also had the waterpump go out this summer, but this is the first major maintenance in 5 years. Anyway, I'm looking for tires that are good on the highway, bad weather and some mild offroad. Has anyone heard of Cooper's American Prospectors or have a suggestion for a good median priced tire? Replies to this message: mac24 (Sep 25, 2009 7:22 am)

Replying to: hiker2023 (Sep 24, 2009 10:56 am) I'm looking for tires that are good on the highway, bad weather and some mild offroad. Has anyone heard of Cooper's American Prospectors or have a suggestion for a good median priced tire?   Can't help with the Coopers, but FWIW I've just replaced my 31x10.5 BFG A/T KOs after 60,000 miles with an identical set. These are an excellent all condition highway tire, and very good offroad on all surfaces except deep mud.   I could easily have pushed them another few thousand miles before the tread became too low to be safe, but I like to keep a good margin. As with any tire though, you need to keep on top of rotation, pressures, and alignment to get the maximum mileage.   They're widely available and I paid $135 ($150 -10% coupon) each plus tax and add-ons at Sears.

A company called Quadratec at one point right after Jeep switched back over to round headlights from rectangular.. offered a headlight bezel that actually gave the round look to the older YJ rectangular headlight. Go to quadratec.com and contact them. Not sure if they have it anymore as the round lights have been around for a few years now, but if not maybe they can tell you who made them. I bet the mfg has a few pairs left. They have EVERYTHING for jeeps. tjd
