I will check here in a few when I run to the store. Haven't paid attention since there is a small object blocking any airflow from the rear on mine since I unhooked it 🤣🤣🤣

That's what I did

What Did You do to your Journey Today

Today I finished redoing/upgrading the battery bank for the stereo. Instead of running 4 12v 100 AH lithium batteries i am running a 14.8v 120 AH cmax lithium bank. Since the alternator has external regulator and I didn't want to deal with diodes to trick the system i ran an external dc2dc converter. -
Well, learned something new about my DJ. Since I had the rear climate control unplugged and I disconnected the battery to upgrade my electrical system, when I hooked up the battery the front display removed the rear controller settings and the max ac option. Plugged the rear controller back in and after a moment the front control panel went back to normal view. But needless to say for that minute or 2 I had the rear controller hooked up the slightly bump to the fan control would make it turn back on. Must be that weird vibration I have from the back 😆 🤣 😂

Leaving my rear control unplugged fixed the problem for me. That said it is hot as hell right now so it has been on non stop right now 🤣🤣
-
Tabs were half broke off so wasn't that hard to pull it off. Had about 6" of wire to disconnect it. Control is right in front of the enclosure so not too hard to undo You can barely see it in the photo but it's not that hard to get to for me. Now the dome light harness... that one is another story 🤣🤣

Disconnected the rear HVAC controls and haven't had any issues with it automatically coming back on. That said there was a couple small plastic parts loose inside. Not sure why that happened lol. Could be from that small vibration I have 🤣🤣🤣☠️☠️

Call it my factory system.

In my case there isn't a rear seat anymore so really have no reason to have it. I think I will block off the hole and add a dome light to cover the hole.

My rear HVAC is damaged from minor rattling i have. Never thought about pulling the fuse. Mine will default back on to MAX AC but display still shows it's off. Really annoying since sometimes, and that's rare here in TX, the temp is just right where you don't need AC or heat and the window down is best. I will have to give that a try

On my recent roadtrip, somewhere in the mountains of Wyoming, I hit a fox while doing 70 mph. It could have been a coyote but he didn't hold up a sign that said "yep!" so pretty sure it was a fox 🤣🤣🤣. Under the circumstances the damage was minimal. Broke the lower valance but otherwise that was it. I did learn the answer to the question of what sound a fox makes. It goes "Thump, Thump, Thump!" -

Well not sure i would say i did something to my DJ but definitely something with it. Did a small roadtrip. Split it up, drove up to meet with my brother to do some fishing and drove But did catch a small fish Then flew home, left my car at my brother's in portland, flew home for 2 weeks. And now I am on the return trip. Currently about a quarter of the way home. But as you can see it's only a couple miles left to go 🤣🤣 -
It is several parts but the bigger issue is all the joints are melted plastic rivets. Honestly I'd just pick up a new panel at a junk yard
-
Finally got around to upgrading the front door speakers. Ive been using aftermarket Alpine 6x9s for several years and they worked fine but didn't have the mids and highs as much as I would prefer to handle my "factory" system. So took doors off and added some sound deadening while I was there and replaced the 6x9 with a 8" mid driver and a 3.5" horn tweeter. Not claiming these are top shelf equipment but definitely adds that little bit of sound it was missing. Maybe one day may go higher quality but these are not high power so great for now.
-
So to clarify you replaced the master cylinder but not the brake booster? Or both? My first thought was a bad brake booster
-
Watch a video some time back about this problem specially on the Journey. The problem was the brake lines were compressing and not allowing the air to fully bleed out. Not saying that is your problem but something to consider

Always wondered if those devices actually help or it is just some snake oil -

2012 journey electrical problem FIXED
Locosiete replied to Tig's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
Hmmm... I'm curious if i left mine on. I have 2 runs of 1/0 power wire from alternator. Been a few years since I did it and can't remember if I replaced or not -

Locosiete replied to Tig's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
Well in that case you may possibly havr a bad connection on the battery sensor wiring. Any resistance in the wire can give false readings your voltage is dropping -
