Replacing the rear shock absorbers is much simpler than the front ones since the spring and damper are not co-axial, so you do not need to use clamps to separate them. Start by accessing the boot, removing the cover panel applied to the side plastic trim to reach the upper mount of the shock absorber for disassembly.

Next, move to the lower fixing bolt, which can be accessed by shifting the plastic cover. Apply a support jack during the disassembly of this bolt and attach the rubber mount to the new one, then proceed with installation in reverse order.

How to reset the Service light on a 2019 Jeep Renegade?

The Service light, depicted as a yellow spanner, illuminates as scheduled to remind the driver that it is time for scheduled maintenance. This means that the set mileage has been reached, or the expected time has passed. The procedure involves turning on the instrument cluster, pressing the accelerator three times, and then turning off the ignition. After this, keep the brake pressed, turn the ignition back on, and then turn it off again. Upon the next ignition, you will notice that the light has been reset.
