smithed: thank's for response. The dealer finally delivered the Jeep on Monday, 10/13 in the early pm, fixed, said the computer check was negative, tech. traced problem to two bent prongs on a wiring harness connector, straightened them out, billed me $518.00.

Left lights on and to start the wehicle I also changed my battery the same way as you did, now my automatic door lock at 15mph does not work - (that's the only thing I noticed, I will check if there is any more.
Have you managed to solve your problem? if so how?
thanks.

2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Brake trouble light problem by jmaty23

I have a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I bought from a dealer. It has about 45000 miles on it. Runs great. For about the past 4 months, the Brake Trouble light has been blinking every once in a while. This is a brake trouble light and the emergency brake light combined into one. It only does it when I use my brakes or when I hit a bump on the road. I tried to get a DTC code from the computer and nothing shows up in the freeze frame memory. I took it to the dealer and they could not find an issue with the vehicle considering the light wouldn't come on when I took it in(of course). I was wondering if anyone knew where the brake sensors for the brake system are located and what they do and if anyone has any pointers on pinpointing the problem.

I recently purchased a 2006 JCG. After a day, the speedometer and tachometer started flickering simultaneously. The ABS, check engine and airbag lights also flicker (and ding) intermittently. The car is still under warranty and has spent 7 out of the 10 days I have owned it at the Jeep dealer. They admit there is a problem (like I needed a diagnostic machine to tell me that!), but they say they have no idea what it is and how to fix it.
 
Has anyone had any success with the dealer and this problem?

Jeep Grand Cherokee electrical short by la_writer

I have a 2002 Grand Cherokee. As I'm driving, I seem to get an sudden electrical short, where the radio shuts off, I hear the door locks click and the dash board display turns off, then within seconds it call comes back on. The car itself doesn't shut off and I don't seem to loose the headlights. It is sporadic. A mechanic looked at it, said that the alternator seemed to be fine, and he cleaned and tightened the battery terminals which needed it, but he said he couldn't find anything else.
 
His thought was that there might be a short in a wire, which wasn't something he could find. Anyone have any other possible suggestions? Or does that sound the most logical and is it a dealer fix?

sounds as if you have a short in the rubber tube that goes into your drivers door (by the hinges )
