In my 01 Wrangler, the dash lights are on the same circuit as the tail lights so if your tail light fuse blows you know because your dash lights go off.
This could be a recall issue but the #1 hobby of newer Jeep owners is adding stupid LED lights everywhere. I would look into that first to eliminate it as an issue.
The trunk light on my XJ would only turn off when the brake lights turned on
Enguneers.
A lot of cars are wired that way. I think it's a safety feature because it's difficult to know when your tail lights don't work but it's impossible to miss the dash lights
Yup. Like if one of your blinkers is blinking faster than the other, you likely have a bulb out on the side of the fast blinker. Brilliant engineering.
