What does the temperature sensor on a jeep do?
Also the temperature input is used to enable or disable certain OBDII faults. The voltage of 13V is indeed a bit too low, however a fully charged battery only has 12.6V, so with 13V there is stil a (low) charging current and the battery will not be depleted, however charging will take longer. it away from the battery.
What should the voltage be on a jeep battery?
Sounds strange that the voltage is dropping that much though, mine never leaves 14V when running regardless of accessories being on/off, normally sits at 14.4V though. As far as i remember, you have to remove the tray to get the sensor out. Not sure if you would be able to disconnect the connector without removing the tray.
Is there a temperature sensor on a battery?

Why is the alternator on my Jeep not charging?
Looks like the field coil of the alternator isn’t getting power. There are 3 wires attached to the alternator. One is a big fat wire that goes to the battery, this is the alternator output. The other two wires feed power to the field coil.
