Hi!

I've been trying to figure out an issue on my 2008 Jeep GC Laredo 3.7l. About 3 years ago, (yes I've been at this a while) my husband was driving on the freeway and out of no where, all the lights on the instrument cluster came on. Front drivers and passenger windows would not roll down but back ones go up and down fine. The radio stopped working, the blinkers wouldn't work, but hazard lights work fine. All the gauges were at zero, even when accelerating. Lights come on fine as well. and where the P R N 2 3 would be, there are squares around the letters. Please HELP!!!
 
We had a 2004 GC. There was an issue that Jeep was aware of with potential breakage of critical wiring in the driver’s door coming from the dash. Dealer wouldn’t touch it, I know it affected the power windows and locks. I took it apart and soldered an extra length of similar wiring. Car is still in the road with just short of 200k miles.
Hope that helps! Most of this forum is TJ driven, so hence the lack of response.
