Indeed. I just got a mygig a few weeks ago, but it also did the same thing when I had the 6 disc.

Is it nonstop? Mine does it every minute or so. Forever.

My buddy who is a Chrysler engineer finally got back to me and said I should have the stealer check for fault codes in the TIPM.

I might take it in Monday.

I worked hard to get my comboobilator. Now you are saying the JK is trying to remove it?? What if I want to recomboobilate it??

Like everyone else, I'm looking for the logical answer. This is one, but there might be another!
