Every time I hit the brake the right turn signal on the dash and the front position light turns ON solid for as long as I hit the press the brake pedal, what does this mean?

Thank You.

You KJ is possessed. You need to take it to a certified Jeep exorcist.

Seriously though, my first suggestion is to check all of your fuses, both under the hood and in the dash-end panel. KJs have been known to do some goofy things when certain fuses blow.

If all the fuses look good then you may have a short somewhere. Have you done any modifications lately? Been in an accident? Heavy rain storm?

Only thing I did a couple days ago was change the gear oil in the rear axle with synthetic blend and the limited slip additive. The jeep is like new and no one messed with the wiring as far as I can tell.

Checked the brakes and undercarriage still nothing. :POPCORN:

Well the tractors and trailers I deal with, that sort of thing is usually caused by a short in the wiring. I have also seen light assemblies (sealed beam lights) and light bulbs/sockets (green from corrosion sockets) shorting out cause that also.

This may be one of those goofy ways the Jeep is saying something is wrong, but you have to figure out what.

I'd double check all the turn signal and brake light bulbs to be sure they all work correctly.

My last stint with a turn signal problem turned out to be nothing more than a corroded bulb base in the right front turn signal. A little WD-40, and scraping away the corrosion-good as new.
