    Thank you!!! You're a lifesaver. My son in law tried to get the guy at the auto parts store to change his aux battery yesterday, but only ended up worse off than when he started. You had the secrets!!! First the store guy stopped when he didn't have a T5 socket, so you told us we needed one before we got into it! Then when the guy put the battery leads back on, he put the lower positive lead on the neg side with the neg lead. Jeep really should've made that a red wire. Anyway my son in-law is all better again... Thank you!!!

    Glad I found this channel. Really clear and concise information. My Compass wouldn’t start yesterday and when I checked the fusesI had to unhook the battery because an error message about the “vehicle is in Park“ would not go off. (It was in Park) It puzzled me because I was not aware my vehicle had two batteries. The door chime would not stop dinging, Set the neighbors dogs off and of course it was 10:30 pm. So it was a fun evening...NOT! For the record, I do not like stop/start system and I’m sure I’m not alone. But I appreciate you sharing your knowledge sir. God bless!

    Another reason to be glad I drive a 98 (4.0L) Wrangler and a 96 (2.3L) Ranger! 1 battery, no extra electronic GARBAGE. It's all packaged as a "we're doing this to make things more efficient and help you" scenario, but in reality it's just a bunch of expensive modules, sensors, fuses, connections that can and WILL fail probably sooner than later and how many (needless IMO) start cycles is a starter designed to last? I can tell you that driving and having a starter repeatedly cycling is cutting deeply into the starter's life (if it were without the auto-start feature). Not to mention (I have driven a Cherokee with this exact feature) it is down right annoying! Great vid!

    You think they would give you the option in the EVIC display to permanetly disable it if you wanted so theres less wear and tear on the starter. But then again i guess thats more moola for the stealerships.
