smurph Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 does anyone know what the up arrow on the left hand side on the dash means? also what other lights come on in that panel? kevin
a1awind Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 sounds like the "up shift" light. when the truck wants you to up shift the light comes on.
MJ'87 Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 then mine must not work right. it tells me to shift as soon as i do, then it goes away until AFTER i shift again :nuts:
LJRockstar Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 Yea it's pretty stupid. Mine wants me to upshift from 5th gear all of the time. :nuts:
BMJ Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 :eek: Darn!!! And all this time I thought it was the Crawl Now!!! indicator light!! :brows:
a1awind Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 the one in my YJ was sporadic ....of course so were the turn signal arrows
Pathkiller Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 One of Jeep's stupider ideas. Even my 98 TJ has one. Amazing how quickly your brain completely ignores it. I shift when I want to, not when the idiot light tells me to.
Geonovast Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 Pop the cluster out and pull that stupid bulb out. Your sanity will thank you. When it goes off is based on RPM, nothing else. That's why it goes off in 5th, and my old XJ used to throw it at me in reverse too. Apparently, the newer ones go off of a memory system, they're supposed to remember the last RPM you shifted at, and go off then the next time.
Pete M Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 The one in my 88 was haunted. I eventually exorcised it with an awl and a hammer. :D
