Haven't been around in quite a while... life's changes have kept me from enjoying my favorite website as much as I used to. Good to see the site is going strong and growing! 
Anyway... I've had an ongoing "check engine" light issue for well over a year now. I've checked gas caps, and taken it to the dealer every time. They have always been genuinely concerned and tried their best, but after a few days to a month, the telltale "ding!" and light shows up again. I'm getting increasingly frustrated.
I know they have cleaned the throttle body, and checked numerous things... the most recent service was replacing some major computer module. That was two weeks ago, and within two days of the new module installed the light was on again (and it hasn't turned off since). I am out of warranty by a few thousand miles (bought my 07 before Jeep implemented the full warranty) but thankfully the Service Manager has been aware of my issue and because it was happening long before I was out of warranty, they've been working on it for free as if it were still under warranty. I didn't pay a cent for that expensive computer module... nice of them, of course... but I want my Jeep fixed!
I will try turning the ignition key trick today to see if it will pull a code...
I was curious to know if ANYONE actually had a solution to their check engine light. I've read through all the other threads but most of them never posted a solution.
So far I've seen:
- Bad 02 sensor
- gas cap
- emissions tube broken/loose
- exhaust crossover pipe (??) leaking
- dirty throttle body
I'm taking it back to the shop next week and will continue to update this thread with my findings and results.
