    This fixed my 2021 wrangler issue. I had Start/ Stop Unavailable msg and the locks no longer worked on the drivers side. This was the only video I found that SHOWED the pins were slightly bent. When I read all the blogs, I assumed they'd be completely bent (there were no pictures), but I was wrong. I bent them slightly, after seeing yours, and all is fixed! Thanks for showing the male end and how "bent" the prongs were for reference, huge help!

  • @SpongeWorthy76

    Just wanted to say thank you. I tried bending back the pins and nothing was resolved. I had convinced myself it was a problem with maybe a broken wire in the harness that goes all to the door. Took the entire door apart, found nothing. Went back and watched your video and then took a picture of the pins so I could blow it up on my phone. Sure enough they were bent forward just like you described, I just couldn't see it with my naked eye. After a few tries I got them bent back far enough and success!

    @brianpatrickcork4513 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a good instruction video. It really is a head-scratcher why Mopar can't offer better instructions - especially given the quality of design and engineering inherent in the JL/ JT vehicles. What anyone preparing to install one of these Sunbonnet needs to know is that you can't use this and a Spiderwebshed at the same time. In fact, if you have a Spiderwebshade mounted you will need to remove the tie hardware to make room for the Mopar Sunbonnet snaps. I am hoping the new Bestop option is more compatible.
