When I am in the JK, with engine off but keys in to listen to the radio, there is a kind of servo actuated clicking noise coming from the passenger side engine compartment, in regular intervals, about 2 or 3 minutes apart.

Does anyone have an idea what that noise is?

 

I just noticed it myself

 

I'm not crazy after all !!!

It sounds like a slight hum, almost something you'll see on a Frankenstien movie when the Doctor said, "it's alive....."

For the longest time, I thought I had an eletrical problem. This was freeky when I installed my Sub one time and it happen again when I switch out a radio when I reconnected my battery. I thought I messed up the electronics around the engine or something.

WHAT IS IT ??????

 

I noticed this a few months ago when installing 1" soil spacers. I was listening to the radio while under the jeep a kept hearing it click. Not sure what it was.

 

ok... so we have established that we have no idea what this is.

Does anyone know....?? .....

 

It's the heat sensors for the flux capacitor. They activate every few minutes to make sure there is no overheating issues. Can't be too careful with plutonium!

 

YaKnow.....it was just a matter of time before someone mentioned the Flux Capacitor. Thanks PJ!

I looked through the manual and still could not find any mention.....not a big deal but driving me batty not knowing.....

 

Its the CD player spinning up, checking for a disk.

 

That makes sence, but the noise SEEMS to be coming from the passenger side engine compartment. Also, this happened while I was listening to a CD already.

 

could be the self destruct mechanism chrysler puts in all there cars... ohh wait, no, that's the transmission....
