Can someone tell me what grounds to check for my fuse #19 blowing? Ive replaced the headlight switch, removed stereo and lighter, unplugged horn. The fuse #19 goes to dash lights and dash illumination stuff. Thanks for any help.

Have you pulled the gauge cluster to check the power and ground?

Also i'll sub up, and help out
Which Jeeps so you mean by Wrangler? 2012 JK with the 4 cyl 2.8L VM Motori turbodiesel? Pretty different. A TJ or YJ with the 2.5L gasser is the same engine as the 2.5L gas XJs though. There are a lot of commonalities between TJs and XJs, and there are other similarities between XJs and YJs.

Im not even seeing 17" wheels in a 5on4.5.... Its a conspiracy.

Sounds like the trans side of the TPS is bad.

Been going on for a bit now with the new heep..
Backing out of my garage into my driveway (pretty steep)... If I hit the brakes I get a decent popping noise (almost like a cracking noise) that seems to come from right under my feet. Doesnt do it all the time..pretty inconsistent.. Also will occasionally happen if im going up my driveway and get on the gas a good bit. Steering is all tight, u joints dont have any play in them..

How do you know for sure it's an XJ? Could be an MJ...
