The weird part is that when I reconnected the battery .... my saved radio stations were still there.
I thought they'd be deleted .

Any ideas ??

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 logged any DTC’s, they will be displayed soon after the dashes appear. Write down the DTC(s).
3. If your Jeep JK Wrangler has not logged 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.
I tried this today and after about 3-4 attempts couldn't get it to work. I did however, drain my battery to a level where it wouldn't start the engine. I'm guessing that the battery was already on the verge of being done (original battery on a 2008).

Is it just me, or do a lot of you drive about without your seat belts on? #tisk-tisk

Yea yea, a couple of old posts, if you guys are still around .... The audible alarm can be turned off by the dealer for the dog in the front seat thing., the dash light would still light up though. One way to get rid of both, seat belt extenders, the system just wants something plugged in

Jared
So... where are these secret stash places?

While exploring my 2010 JK I found one behind the passenger tail light and a lot of space behind the glove box. Any more?

Default 2013 MIL code display

I couldn't pull a display until I did it this way;

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 and leave it there for 30 secs. 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 as quickly as you can do it. 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 logged any DTC’s, they will be displayed soon after the dashes appear. Write down the DTC(s).
3. If your Jeep JK Wrangler has not logged 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.
