Patriot module screws
I have noticed my module screws on my 04 Patriot will loosen up every so often, not a huge issue but would like to cure the problem. What type or brand of thread lock should I use to set them. If I loosen them and add the thread lock is that OK, or do I need to remove them totally and then reinstall them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: Patriot module screws
Use blue loc tite.. loc tite is the brand. You can find it at your local auto parts stores. Don't use the Red loc tite.. or else you'll never be changing your module EVER again... the blue stuff will release w/ a little pressure.. but will hold the screws just fine.

RE: Patriot module screws
I called Bowtech about this and Pat told me to use the blue loc-tite as stated above. I took the screws right out and did mine, I'm not sure you would get the loc-tite where it needs to be if you don't. ( on the threads)
], but never had a problem changing them in the past even though I used red. Must have gotten lucky.
