Had a run of the mil mechanic look at my power door locks. He could not get them to work. He said something about my power lock issue being related to the "VIC", they are both hook up to the security system. Perhaps my VIC needed to be swap out or maybe a relay in needed to be replace. Anyone want to validate this theory? Let me know what you think, thanx.

I don't think the VIC and the power locks are tied to each other at all.

The relays for the power locks are in the glove box (under the false bottom).

I did find those glove box relays. Whets what, & how do you check them? I知 thinking maybe they are turn off by the dealer, I致e read other post that some folks have them removed from operating. I do have a security system and keyless entry set up ( old owner never gave me the remote). So I have to lock & unlock driver door as I enter & exit my jeep.
As for my VIC, I知 gonna need to do some research on it. I do have warning going off: (Red light)
Driver door - door hinge is warp or bent abit.
Engine compartment is - ?
Front windshield - Not crack or damaged ( I even wash it)
Radiator - On & off at times, VIC not recognizing that a swat out the old plastic one for a aluminum radiator.
Rear brake light - Both left and right brake light. Everything is working properly (3rd light, reverse, turn signals, flashers).
I知 on summer vacation, so I知 on my jeep issues, feel free to get back at me, thanx again.

The drivers door warning is prolly because of a bad sensor OR the button needs adjusted out some to make contact with the door.

ENGINE flashing is prolly because of low oil pressure (my BAD COOLANT SENSOR flashed the engine as well so it could be that)

Front windshield flashin is because you are low on WINDSHIELDWASHER FLUID

RADIATOR FLASHING - due to low coolant level or bad Coolant level sensor.

REAR Brake lights - this is a very common problem - either one of the many lights in the rear is out along with the front side marker lights or the wrong bulb is being used - example a 2057 and 1157 look alike but they are different amperage so the VIC will read this difference and thing the light is blown when it is not.

OR

You could have a bad VIC.

WOW! Thanx, I will follow up on your write tomorrow. I hope I can clear half the wanings on the VIC. Did not see the rear bulb heading my way, whats the actual number to be properly intalled? I will keep you posted.
