My question is... Ok I know the circuit board on the back of the gauge cluster is junk and causes issues. I also understand that if your sending units are not functioning correctly, the gauges will not read properly. I also understand that if it is not grounded properly it will not read correctly.

My question is this, is it possible that the actual gauges are bad? The circuit board can be replaced by just direct wiring everything according to configuration on the circuit board (which I have done). But my gauges are still reading incorrectly, the temp gauge is reading way high. I have replaced the temp sending unit, no fix.

Before I start replacing the other sending units, fuel, oil, etc. is there any point?

The wiring is possibly messed up somewhere under the dash, which I will check next. ]]> YJ Jeep Wrangler Forum snowbrd84 http://www.wranglerforum.com/f8/yj-gauges-can-the-actual-gauges-be-bad-161037.html NoVA Transplant http://www.wranglerforum.com/f12/nova-transplant-161036.html Fri, 18 May 2012 14:41:44 GMT Living in NoVA.

My injector is dumping way too much fuel into the intake manifold, so much that it's pooling in there. Obviously the jeep won't start this rich. If I unplug the injector it will start and run until all the fuel in the manifold is gone. Do I need a new injector or is something else the problem here? ]]> YJ Jeep Wrangler Forum Vermonter http://www.wranglerforum.com/f8/too-rich-161035.html fixing body rust questions http://www.wranglerforum.com/f5/fixing-body-rust-questions-161034.html Fri, 18 May 2012 14:35:00 GMT I have two spots of body rust/rot on my jeep and they are on both sides of the tailgate.

I am having an issue with my AC not working. Initially I tried filling it with the leak repair type freon, and it worked for a day or so. Then I took it to a mechanic friend of mine who pressurized the system with the freon that had the dye in it so that I could find the leak. The system worked for about a month or so, and then stopped working again AND with no indication of a leak. My compressor will constantly kicking on and off. The system seems to still be pressurized as well. My friend suggest it may be a low pressure cut-off switch.

Just purchased the Cobra® 75 WX CB was looking at my options as it relates to mounting locations for an External Speaker, more specifically I'm interested in installing in inside the sounds bar.

Just wondering if anyone has images or advice on such an install. I'm sure its been done. :Thanx: ]]> JK Jeep Wrangler Forum redeagle2012 http://www.wranglerforum.com/f33/mounting-external-cb-speaker-into-sound-bar-161029.html Intrusion Alarm disco.... http://www.wranglerforum.com/f33/intrusion-alarm-disco-161028.html Fri, 18 May 2012 13:40:16 GMT Is there a simple way to disconnect the door intrusion alarm :banghead: I purchased a spare ignition key from Ace hardware, $78, but does not include the two little push buttons to lock doors etc. Now if I lock the doors with the stock key/button, but unlock the doors with this new spare,...

Now if I lock the doors with the stock key/button, but unlock the doors with this new spare, the door alarm goes off :banghead:

I finally got around to taing the hard top off today. Just out of curiosity, I unzipped the black covering on the sport bar in the very back, and the color is is almost army green under there. Is this normal that they don't paint the entire car the gecko color? Under the padding int he front, it is normal geco color. Does anybody else have this is normal (this is my first Jeep) or is mine messed up? Thanks.

The lifted Jeep is kinda nice...it has 3:21 gears! :nonono:

The other 2 Sports had sticker prices of over 32k :eek:

I also saw 3 - 2 door White Arctics on the lot :cool:
