Auto unlock and rear wiper dont work
08 JKU X.
When I use the fob or lock switch on the door, only the drivers front door will unlock. I can use the switch and fob to lock all doors, but only the front drivers will unlock. Even the back door is affected. Another issue is my rear wiper stopped working at the same time.
Previously, all doors were affected. I checked the fuse box and saw a 25a fuse was blown. I think M8. Changed it and the front driver door started working. Any thoughts on the rest of the gremlins? Thanks

There is a setting that can be changed with a key/door lock dance or at the dealer that should fix this. I don't have a 4-door so I don't know the specific steps for yours.

Also, if I have both of the fobs in my pocket and I'm near the jeep, it will start trying to lock and unlock. Mind you, still no buttons touched.

I have a aftermarket remote starter and at first I had very similar issues. What it boiled down to was the immobilizer module and the aftermarket system where not getting along. I ended up resetting the aftermarket puck and pulling the the ground terminal for ten minutes or so. After hooking everything back up she started acting her self with the new convenience of remote start that is. I understand I'm mixing apple and oranges between our different issues. Because you have had an issue with blown fuses, and without being hooked up to a ecu/obdII reader for the exact issues, a power reset might help. I know if all the variables aren't just right, the added features auto locks just won't work right. As for your wiper, when you try to use the water sprayer, does that work? Or the entire rear power package dead?

Our 07 JKU started loosing electrical stuff over about 2 years, wiper pump stopped working, then doors unlocking with fob, finally one day it would not start it. Had to put a new computer in it.

Did you have the dealer do it or get it online? How much cash, if you don't mind me asking? I had to replace the ecu in my XJ and was pretty simple.

Dealer did it $900
I did find a place in Florida that sells the ECU flashed with your VIN# so it is a direct plug in swap. Don't remember the name off the top of my head. They do a computer for $300 and you send them your old one.
