There is a programing era in the computer.If you have let the battery go dead,or have disconnected the battery,then the computer needs re flashed at the dealership.Loose or dirty battery cables could have done this also.

2002 wrangler gauges going out when i depress defrost switch
That definitely sounds like a short. If this started happening after the radio was installed, more likely than not, it's because they either spliced into the wrong wire or they nicked or cut the wire insulation, causing the short. You can look for yourself, just start at the defroster switch, and trace the wiring as far as you can go. Then do the same for the radio wiring. Somewhere along the line, you'll find the problem. Or take it back to Best Buy and make them fix the problem. I would advise caution on that though, as they can install a stereo, but that doesnt make them experts on automotive wiring. Best bet if you dont want to do it yourself, take the Jeep to a good garage or a dealer, have them find the problem, and if it turns out Best Buy caused it, take the bill for the repair and let them pay it.

05 wrangler grinding/screeching
it could be your brakes , on most brakes there is a wear tab that makes a high pitched squeeling noise when it contacts the rotor. this is in place to let you know your brakes are due for replacement. if it is not your brakes then it could be a wheel bearing.

When I turn my vent selector to defrost on the far
It's normal for the A/C compressor to come on with the defroster to dehumidify the air so the windsheild won't fog up under humid conditions. You can still control the air temp. out the vents with the temp. select switch.

The 4wd light stays on. I have tried pushing the
Light will not go out until the gears actually disengauge. Typically there is SOME preload on the gears and that keeps them engauged and light indicates so, correctly. To disengauge, move lever to disengauge and drive in left and right circles. This allows the front drive and rear drive to alter their relation in the transfer case, eventually allowing for release.

2005 Wrangler X a/c only blows from defroster
Check under your hood for a loose or leaking vac line , The A/C system on your jeep uses manifold vac to move the air mix doors and with no vac the air mix door will move into the defrost position. Find your vac leak and that will fix your problem.

How do i install the side steps
Are these factury or affter market, either way the factury onces fit better, I take it they are used, hence no instruction that comes in the package, best to get a copy from your Jeep dealer, they will help you,
just tell them they were a gift, no info with the box. GOOD LUCK, RDJRP
