RE: The death of Hunter S. Thompson never found out what it was..... went out to the jeep 2 days later to take it to auto zone and the (insert part name here) didn't tick anymore.

TOP DOWN!!! saurian, thanks for all the help. i had a feeling it had something to do with climate control as it shared the wiring to the AC part. guess i'll have to go by auto zone and see if they have it.
