So recently I've had some electrical gremlins popping up and wondering if anyone can offer any insight.

So for the past year or so my rear windshield wiper has a mind of its own. It works when I flip it on, but does a few cycles before it turns off (after I flipped the switch off). Not sure if it's as stupid as the stalk just going bad or not.

The other day I was on the beach in 4high with the tcs turned off (held the button to get the message). Then the tcs light turned on (the one that flashes when a tire is spinning), the "tcs off" light went off and the tcs button did nothing. Turned the Jeep off then back on, she idled at about 2k and dropped the minute I touched the gas going back to a normal idle. The tcs light was gone, the button worked again and I went on my merry way.

Today my skyslider decided it didn't want to open. I tried turning the Jeep off and back on and it worked after a pressing the button a few times. No idea, I have the battery disconnected while I'm having dinner hoping that a reset helps.

I suck with electrical, but if anyone experiences anything similar or has ideas please chime in.

Sorry that's been going on. I have no clue how to fix it, unfortunately. Hopefully resetting the battery did the trick.

My rear windshield wiper does the same thing, it's annoying but hasn't been a big enough issue for me to trouble shoot.

That's what I'm hoping. Only time will tell though.

I'm in the same boat. I'm just dealing with it. Honestly I only care that the sky slider and 4wd works.
