Exclamation esp cutting in

Second prob with my new jk!!!
When driving along in a straight line the ESP light comes on for a second, tacho and speedo goes back to zero, engine stops and a warning beep sounds. only does it for a second and them its fine?????? happens when under load, not under load. cant isolate it to certain times or speeds ot gears.
project jk forum list a few problems when cornering with the esp. i have lifted mine and run 285/75r16 mud terrains but i dont think this could be the problem as i drove it for a month after the mods with out any problems??

any thought's????

Sounds strange, My only suggestion would be to take it back to the stealership... I've heard of some flash update for the computer that fixes things like this. Post some pics of your JK! I wanna see how it looks lifted! Cheers.

I believe this is a known issue with the wiring harness. Have a look on the JK-Forum and look for the 'stall bug' thread under Stock JK Tech. There are quite a few with this problem including an Aussie or two. Possibly a faulty batch of wiring harnesses??

problem fixed..
first they could not find the fault so they replaced the fuse box wich has senses molded into the plastic covers. stoped for 100kms the showed up again. turns out the it had a fault in the wiring harness from the fuse box to the dash. they told me that the loom was or had been squashed between the steering shaft and something else not alowing a good earth and currant to pass over. you can tell if it is a simular problem if it displays on the dash "NO BUS" oh and blody beeps a lot.
