In this video we see how to remove the SKREEM (Sentry Key Rembedded EEprom Module) module on a Jeep Grand Cherokee. This module is an electronic component used by the Chrysler group for vehicle security and immobilization, communicating with the transponder in the key: if the code does not match the one stored in the module, the vehicle will not start.

Under the steering wheel we have a cover with a screw that we need to remove, and another one on the top. This will allow us to remove the lower part of the instrument panel which is pressure fitted. Underneath we find two screws to remove, and then two cross screws on the sides, in order to remove the upper part of the driver's side dashboard.

This way we will be able to see the module, which is located right under the steering column. At this point, it will be enough to remove the connector and the job is done.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
