Some interesting discussion on the TIPM, complete with pictures, is here: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f96/oem-tipm-study-1200238/

I wonder how much Chrysler saved by putting so much functionality into one "god object", compared to what it costs them to replace all the failing ones. Also would like to know the exact causes of these failures; the thread linked above suggests bad solid-state relays, which would probably fail regardless of whether they were all put into one TIPM or scattered in separate modules throughout the vehicle.

Edit: in that thread someone experienced the wiper switch behaving like an inverted ignition switch, and another user had a fire related to headlight wiring that apparently is not fused(!) on these models.
