I have come to this conclusion because if you look at the parts diagram the steering, a-arms, and knuckles are all the same part numbers even up to the foreman and rubicons the only difference is they’re is a “puck” instead of the cv axle as seen in this picture
(it’s number 8 that I’m talking about)
And that gear indicator sign combined with the no start the manual does say is either the PCM or power supply or earth. I'd always try to bypass/substitute the PCM to be real sure that was going to cure the problem.. But I'm a mech and have to be sure.. and parts are dearer here in New Zealand.
Ok.. Progress.
And yeah, things that switch by turning the earths off instead of the power can catch us out. Bad earths can catch us out.
Can you bypass/jump the pcm to see if the circuits work then ? Always best to be sure parts are the problem, and the only problem, before condemning them.
lol, well the holes were there, but did they did not go all the way through. China quality, you know. I think a lot of these parts are made in the same place, then companies stamp their name on them.
I bought a flywheel no problems, in fact Niche seems better than most aftermarket parts i have bought. I would send it back and reorder, I always buy stuff like that from Amazon ease of returns .
