Hello all,
I'm a newbie here and just got my 2013 sport unlimited lifted. 2.5 in rubicon express. While driving it home (can't get to the alignment shop til Friday) my traction control light started blinking followed by a wierd noise then the traction control light stayed on. Then when I tried to use cruise control it would'nt work either. My rig ran perfectly before the lift what gives. I called the shop where I had the lift installed and they did'nt know what to say. Can anyone help a newbie out and possibly point me in the right direction on how to correct these issues. Thank you very much in advance.

 

Did they center the steering wheel after the lift was done? If the wheel isn't straight the traction control will try to compensate.

 

Is your steering wheel perfectly centered?

 

Is your steering wheel centered? Is the shop going to do anything about it?

 

Haha... Survey says...

 

No the steering wheel was quite a bit off so when I got home I adjusted the drag link to get it back as close as I could.
Why would the cruise control stop working if the steering wheel is off?

 

If the shop didn't know to center it after lifting it then I wouldn't trust them much anymore. That's lifting 101

 

Most likely because the traction control was freeking out. Does it work after centering the steering wheel.

 

Will probably take you a couple tries to get it centered. Adjust it drive it and see how it is while driving straight. Repeat until it's all good. Think you will be five after you get it straight.

 

The light did'nt go off after I adjusted the drag link so I must not have it centered. It was just kind of odd that I lost the cruise control. The shop that did the lift did'nt have a clue why it did that so I guess I'm gonna have to take it to the dealer (which I really don't want to do) and have them sort me out.
