    Is this an OPDA issue or not?

    2006 TJ 4.OL AUTOMATIC Read many post on the OPDA issue symptoms.... (clicking, squealing, howling monkey)??? When these issues start is it something that is a continuous sound or random? The squeal I am hearing is when I am driving and at a steady speed, the squeal stops when accelerating and...

    Radiator sits at 212 on the highway going 70

    Thanks for the information, I was about to ask the same question, anything above 65 MPH with AC on I am running just past the 210 indicator. during the winter I swapped out the water pump, flushed radiator system, and changed thermostat with 195 deg. and it was running just under 210 with no AC...

    Randomly acts as if the battery is disconnected

    yes, that was the first thing I checked. the accessory items, Winch, and spot lights worked fine during the time jeep would not start.

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    Well I have finally had the time to start stripping loom from the wire harness that comes around the back side of the engine block to the computer. and low and behold after pulling loom and tape from around the bundle of wires I found one wire that felt funny, one side was flat, when I could get...

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    one of the items discussed earlier in the post was the fact I was having some other issues dealing with the Crankshaft position sensor and the Camshaft position sensor coded when the engine had overheated, one suggestion was to look at the loom to see if it has deteriorated, I did inspect the...

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    Just getting back to finding time to work on jeep, I have replaced the loom on several wiring harnesses around the engine block and decided to really look at the sensors on the transmission to see if they were contaminated with oily dirt build up. the sensors on the transmission looked good...

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    it just so happen I purchase some loom but it was some generic stuff, mainly because some of it was degraded and breaking apart. I did not research enough to know there is High temp. loom. the very harness you were talking about is one that has almost no loom left on it.

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    well that is about where I am at, at this point. I will have to start tracing wires to see If I can find something damaged. since I don't know much about Jeeps I have to start learning. this is frustrating!!

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    thank, I did change the fluid and filter, the level was good before I changed and now it is still at top of full mark on stick when jeep is at normal temp while running. that is why i was wondering if there is some type of signal that is sent to the computer to indicate reverse and if the signal...

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    I have recently changed the Transmission fluid and filter about a month ago, one of the reasons I changed it was because at that time I was having this issue with reverse. the Fluid I have in it now it is ATF LV which is what the manual called for. the level is all the way up to the full line...

    06 TJ will not run in reverse

    Apparently this has been an underlying problem with what I had going on from earlier. I have had some issues with Crankshaft Position sensor and Camshaft position sensor several times. I have replaced both using mopar sensor on Crankshaft position sensor. once I have that issue lined out I...

    2006 4.0 codes P0016, P0300, and P0339

    I have not done anything to the cooling system, I did notice that the level in the reservoir was a little low, I add coolant to it to get the level back to full. What are you referring to? I went ahead and changed out the CKPS (mopar) it did give me a little stutter when going in reverse but did...
