start with your battery and very importantly your battery connections and grounds between teh engine, the body, the altenator and the battery. A bad battery or bad ground causes wierd stuff onthe WJ Grands.

try taking the connections at the PCM loose and make sure tehy are all making good contact, put a little dieletric grease on each plug when you put it back together. It either has to be a bad connection somewhere or you possibly have a PCM going bad.
