Hi fellow Jeepers, I just picked up my KK 2009used 4x4 with sky slider with 29k miles and I need some advice on several questions
1. Are their any sky slider owner who never had any problems or are they all junk? I am trying to prepare for any type of failure or leakage.
2. It is under Warranty but the lower row of buttons under the radio containing ESP, the house plug, and four ways, downhill assistance does not work. Is their a fuse that operates all of these in the panel?
I have read thru most post and am really exited to be part of this community. I live in Florida and look forward to seeing some of you on and off the road.

Welcome to the forums TJ.
1) I have the skyslider on my KK and have never had any issues with it. With that being said I DO NOT open or close it at speeds greater than 35MPH. You can also get grease from your dealer for the skyslider to keep it lubricated.
2) I don't have my owners manual in front of me but I do not think these switches are fused as they are just signals that are being sent to the PCM (don't quote me, check your manual to see if its fused). It's possible that the connector in the back is unplugged. If the previous owner had an aftermarket radio and replaced the factory radio before he traded it in, it's possible that it got left unplugged when everything got put back together.
