possible electrical issue
I have noticed the past few days that every once in a while, my volt meter drops to zero and stays there. Once I shut the jeep down and re-start it, the needle runs back to 14 VDC. At first, I though my alt might be starting to die, but the voltage jumps right back to 14VDC when I restart the engine. I am wondering there there is a module that might be having some issues. Has anyone experienced this type of problem? Any ideas where to start trouble shooting? Thanks in advance.

Cruiser, I just noticed my Jeep info is not showing up like it used to. Maybe some setting was changed on the server side that dropped the info from some users.

Been a couple issues lately. Idk if it's just mobile, but some threads show they have new posts, but when I open the thread, the new ones don't show up. But on the list of threads you can see who the last poster was, but they just don't show until that thread gets another post. It's only for a few threads but it's weird.
