Déjà Vu: The P0D94 Fault Code Is Back
I ran a fresh system scan on the Jeep the other day, mostly out of habit at this point, and the result made me laugh in that particular way you laugh when something is more frustrating than funny. Sitting there, stored, was code P0D94-00. If that code number looks familiar to regular readers, it should. It’s part of the same charging-system fault pair that I thought had been put to rest back in July with two separate software updates. Odometer at the time of the scan: just under 58,000 km. No warning lights on the dash, no drama while driving — just a quiet little entry sitting in the Hybrid…

Fed Up: Why I’m Selling My Jeep Wrangler 4xe
Fed up with the 4xe now, I’ve had enough. After the Media Centre froze, stopped, and restarted on me a few times, along with those other problems, I decided to get rid of it. Don’t get me wrong, I love the driving (when it works), and I love the power, torque, and speed it can deliver. But with all these problems, I’m f***ed as soon as the warranty runs out and something breaks. I asked the salesman if he could make me an offer and maybe help me find something else. What I don’t want is another 2.0L engine — those are just too small and not powerful enough for…

That Klausen Pass Scare: When My 4xe Lost Power Mid-Climb
If you’ve been following along, you know my Wrangler 4xe hasn’t had the smoothest few months. After the recent charging system error, the dealer performed two software updates. Charging has been reliable ever since — but the intermittent ECH cabin heating fault is still there, and now I’ve got a new, more serious issue to report. The Klausen Pass Incident I’d had eSave active for most of the drive, but switched it off just before the climb up the Klausenstrasse and selected full Electric mode to take on the mountain. Partway up, the vehicle suddenly lost power. I had to hit the hazard lights immediately, as the car behind me…

Yet Another Problem: Service Charging System Error on my Jeep Wrangler 4xe
Let me back up a little. The car has been at the dealer multiple times over the past months. First the Electric Coolant Heater (ECH) was replaced. Then the cabin heating was still intermittent. Then the 3-Way Coolant Valve was replaced. And now this. I grabbed my JScan app and pulled the fault codes myself: • P0D94-00 (stored) — Battery Charger Coupler Lock Control Circuit Performance • P0D27-00 (active) — Battery Charger 1 Input Voltage Too Low The active P0D27 is what’s triggering the “Service Charging System” message. The IDCM (Integrated Dual Charging Module) is not getting enough input voltage to do its job. Is this related to the previous…
