    Source for Mopar 06 Camshaft Position Sensor?

    Anyone happen to have a source for the OEM Mopar camshaft position sensor for an 06 LJ 4.0? I can't find any sources for them who has them still in stock, called dealership and they can't find one either.

    Stripped transfer case drain plug

    Well, update here. Tried torx first. The t55 is about the same size as the stripped m10 hex, so it wasn't quite big enough. T60 was slightly too big, and I wasn't able to get it deep enough to bite well and just stripped it more. Ended up welding a cheap 3" long 3/8" extension into the hole and...

    Stripped transfer case drain plug

    Well, it happened. Stripped the drain plug on the transfer case. Fill plug came out fine. After heat, PB blaster, tapping - thought it was coming out..but stripped instead. Any tips/tricks? First instinct is order an ez-out that will fit nicely in the nice round hole that's there now. If that...

    The 05 and 06 HVAC w/ AC controls are different than the 99-04. I need one for an '06.

    How to get steering wheel audio controls in a TJ

    Good deal. The arduino's built in regulator should have been able to handle cleaning up the supply power though, however if it was over 12V (charging from the alternator) - maybe it had issues? Also - I'm not sure the Arduino will run with 5V to the Vin line - Vin normally requires 7-12V. You...

    How to get steering wheel audio controls in a TJ

    That's interesting although not unexpected from running the Arduino off the direct +12V line. Do you have schematic and code for the new implementation? I see at a minimum you are now using the reference voltage at the same voltage as the Vdd of the digital pot as well as the Vin on the...

    How to get steering wheel audio controls in a TJ

    Didn't notice this before - but you added some caps to the PCB design that were not in the original list - guessing they are for power filtering? Doing the math, the PCM would see the following for possible resistance values - this assumes 1% tolerance resistors on everything, and calculating...

    Starter issue and transfer case bracket

    For cable shifters - Savvy, Novak - those are the better ones. Steinjager makes a knock-off for cheaper, not sure the quality - they seem to have lackluster reviews on the normal sites (~3.5 stars) If you want the two rubber bushings that hold the bracket to the tub that I didn't shred..I'll...

    Starter issue and transfer case bracket

    @dockdoc - I don't have all 4 rubber bushings, but I do have two of them and the parts pictured below (and the rest of the linkage if required). My experience with the rubber bushings was hit or miss. Half of mine (2 out of 4) came out undamaged - but I wasn't trying to save them either. Maybe...

    How to get steering wheel audio controls in a TJ

    I have thought about giving https://jlcpcb.com/ a try - but 5 of them is $2 + $9 shipping ($11 total) and 35 days from China. The speed of a US based supplier may be worth it.

    Starter issue and transfer case bracket

    Can you find a photo online of your missing T-case pieces and share? I may have what you need as I just installed a cable shifter last week. As for the rubber bushings - are you referring to the ones that the linkage rides on or the ones that hold the bolts through the tub for the bracket? I...

    How to get steering wheel audio controls in a TJ

    Excellent work! I'm a bit rusty on my coding (Mechanical engineer, not software guy - just enough to be dangerous) but a couple of questions: Did you mean to set the pin mode of SWI_CRUISE_ONOFF_PIN twice in setup? I wonder if you could use the 50K version of the MCP4261 and the 2nd pot to...

    New Leather Steering Wheel From Poland

    Well done, and doesn't look that bad. I look forward to the how-to. I assume you'll have the schematic and code? I've been thinking of trying some custom etched PCB using the MSLA 3dprinter - this may be a good candidate.
