Electrical problem
Anyone know what would cause the windshield wipers to turn on and the fluid to spray for no reason? Also, the flashers and then the horn started and when I turned the jeep off it continued to run! The doors are off as well of that is need for anyone to give advice or opinions.

You don't need a code reader....
1. To check your Jeep JK Wrangler’s DTC codes, simply insert your key into the ignition, turn it to the ‘ON’ position but do not start the engine. Then, push the key into the ignition cylinder and while holding it in, turn it to the ‘OFF’ position and then back to the ‘ON’ position (3) times straight making sure to end with it in the ‘ON’ position. It is important to keep pushing in on the key to prevent it from catching at the different positions along the way.
2. If you do step #1 correctly, all your dash lights will illuminate and your odometer will show up as a series of (6) dashes. If your Jeep JK Wrangler has any logged in any DTC’s, they will be displayed soon after the dashes appear. Write down the DTC(s) and check it/them against the list to find out what they mean.
3. If your Jeep JK Wrangler has not logged in any DTC’s, the dashes on your odometer will be followed by the message ‘-done-’. Turn your key to the ‘OFF’ position and you will in fact be done.

So the problem is telling me the jeep lost communication with the front control module. (tipm). U0141 is the code I got. Any idea how much a new module is and if it is easy to change?
