I don't think it will try to kick on. I think it's completely disabled, or is it all enabled since all the lights are on?? We'll soon find out...

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! I just wish I had my winch already!!!
I gotta go to S. Jersey tomorrow afternoon. I'm hoping the blizzard conditions (ie, white out) are over but the people are still afraid to drive so I can get there without traffic! And maybe pull a stuck car or two out and make a few bucks along the way LOL

Scratch that, finally went under the JK and found the speed sensor wire loom had a nice gouge and kink on it. Pulled the wires from the loom, low and behold, a cut wire. Guess it flexed enough to sandwich the wire under the bumpstop and pad. Put a wire in between, lights all went off. Took it for a spin in the snow, TPS came on when I got on the throttle, ABS worked, etc.

If you have this code come up (U1418), check your wiring and connections before purchasing anything. Thank goodness I didn't put the order in.

Glad to hear you got that fixed.

At merrick jeep they moved all the cars back to prepare for the snow. But they left 2 JKs in the front and backed them into each other so that the spare tires are almost touching. And on the windows they wrote : Wish you had a Jeep? Thought that was pretty funny.

Awesome! Good to know some Jeep dealers like the fact they have Wranglers. Some don't know, at all.

Hope we get more snow, there's not enough...yet.

I'm game. Better than calling the wrecker to pull you out for $100-$200.
