    The Jeep Wrangler 4XE (PHEV) OBC (On Board Charger) is integrated into the DC-DC converter. That is where it gets its unique name “Integrated Dual Charging Module”(IDCM). According to Stellantis, it “combines a battery charger and a DC/DC converter in a single unit that is more compact than two separate components, and a next-generation Power Inverter Module (PIM) that is reduced in size. These components are housed and protected from damage in a steel structure mounted below the battery” pack.
