    How to change your OPDA

    Also, once you get the OPDA out, shine a flashlight down the rabbit hole and look T the camshaft gear. If your OPDA gear is jacked up, there is a chance your camshaft gear is as well. Unfortunately, the only way to fix this involves a new camshaft.

    How to change your OPDA

    I changed mine approx 6 months ago. Just make sure when you do change it, that you put the new one in exactly how the old one came out or use a scan tool (make sure the scan tool has this special line) to make sure your cam/crank differential percentage is within spec ( i believe it is +/- 8...

    How to change your OPDA

    If i remember correctly, only the 2005-2006 wrangler have the OPDA ( large round black top). 1997- 2004 have what is called the camshaft synchronizer (little gray top).

    How to change your OPDA

    If you don't have the proper scan tool to read the correlation, the only real way to know if you are in limits is if your jeep doesn't either get the check engine light or go into limp mode. The ecm is designed to go into limp mode if you fall outside of degree tolerances. The stealership...

    What years of TJ A/C will work with a 2002 TJ?

    I did check it and clean everything in there. Also while you have the box out, check all actuator levers for cracks. The smallest Crack will break eventually.

    What years of TJ A/C will work with a 2002 TJ?

    I didn't, but the entire heater box has to come out and be separated. I took plenty of photos to be able to get it back together. If there ever was a time to replace it, this would be it.

    What years of TJ A/C will work with a 2002 TJ?

    I will say this, put the evaporator in first. That is what took the most time. Entire dash had to be loosened and I shifted the passenger side out and up, held by a ratchet strap to the roll bar. I did the compressor next. After those two,everything else went quick.

    What years of TJ A/C will work with a 2002 TJ?

    I have an 05 wrangler. The kit for like oem. I had a problem with the control head diverting to defrost. Took about 2 weeks to get fixed. In the end, they sent me a total of 3 control heads and a vacuum harness. I can not praise then enough for the customer service. They will get you...

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    It's been a frustrating process to say the least. Glad I didn't tear the box out again to check all the actuators and vacuum lines. I will say, JeepAir has been awesome with trying to find the issue. In total they sent me three control heads and a vacuum harness during this process. I know...

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    Jeep air sent me a 2004 control head and a vacuum harness. Everything is working now. I even switched my harness back in and it still works. So, the 2004 dared ac control head works and the late ac co trol heads don't work. So anybody who may install this kit, and you run into defrost only...

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    My box has black plastic vacuum actuators. I believe this is the same side as yours.

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    Also I hooked the mighty ac to the black vacuum hose, started it and measured the engine vacuum.

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    So I pulled the control head off and used a mighty ac to pull light vacuum on all hoses at the connector. All hold vacuum. Any suggestions for next step?

    That would be great.

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    I would've thought the new control head should divert the vacuum where it needed to go and vent what needed to vent, hence the ac version and non ac version. They said it is plug and play.

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    I contacted jeep air and they sent me the second control panel. When that didn't work they said it has to be my vacuum system.

    Air won't come out of vents

    I have another thread here for this, but then I saw and read this. I have an 05 tj, put in an "Jeepair" brand ac system. When I have the old non ac control head the vent selector works in all positions correctly. When I put in the new control head (ac version) I only get defrost. Called jeep...

    "Jeep Air" kit problem on 05 TJ

    The only real difference I see in both schematics is the green vacuum is used for the ac version. This is very frustrating. Would I need to pull vacuum to the door actuator from the control head?
