In this video I have a look at a customers Jeep Wrangler with the big 3.6 that has a customer complaint that the turn signal works until you turn on the headlights. At that point the light goes out completely. Sounds like a typical Chrysler/Jeep bad ground to me 😏

good video and repair,, i dont know what kind of loser would say that repair is not proper,,, its exactly what the factory did, some people just have little tiny pencils and like to think they more important then they are…
Chrysler does NOT have the market cornered on the crappy ground problem. I live to the "salt belt" too Delaware and Schoharrie countys, where I have found many many bad grounds on GM's too. Haven't had or taken too many stabs at Fords and don't want to. In Schoharie County now we do not get to use "domestic salt, NY state dictates our salt comes from Chili or Peru or some other South American country. We don't get the chance to crab about Cargill!
it's a perfect fix, better than anyone else would do.
the only non rusted parts are plastic
Your repair is fine. Crimp and solder is what I would do.
Crimps for wimps, craftsmanship brother! Carry on…
crappy jeep … my 8 speed in mojito is way better
Just spent 17 minutes of my life not necessary learning how to strip wire and put a new eye on but spent 17 minutes waiting for your sarcasm on various subjects and you didn't disappoint…
I just checked my wheel hubs yesterday and with removing the hub I didn't have to get the air hammer out because it just feel out from the last tech whole installed them the right way never have I had this happen on a new york truck with 245k miles on it thanks last tech
I'm only here for the strippers.
Jeep Wrangler
Dim parking/marker light. Blinks when vehical strikes bump
The biggest question here is, who knew there is a Wrangler driver out there who actually uses turn signals?
I laugh at the fact we are in 2023 and yet most auto manufacturers insist on continuing use of incandescent lamps. Nothing more annoying on a modern car than the dashboard nag continue to say there's a lamp out despite replacing all with LED. OH, but for an additional "value added" upsell you can get a magic "trick" to convince the computer into thinking you still use incandescent.
I would also use liquid electric tape.
Well your day went a heck of a lot better than Ray’s did.
