My firm headcanon is that Wheeljack has extended manual control over his own control systems (power distribution, sensory systems etc etc) and I'm entertaining myself by thinking about the absolute spark attack it'll give Ratchet when he realises Wheeljack can do manual reroutings and generally screw with his own root systems.
Like just IMAGINE the incandescent rage and loud righteoust chewing-out about how BLATANTLY UNSAFE and INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS that is and how NOT EVEN EXPERIENCED MEDICS TOUCH THE ROOT DISTRIBUTIONS and WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, WHEELJACK while Jackie just stands there like "blah blah blah, are you done? I've got work I need to finish up on."
(And to be clear, this hc is about TFP!Wheeljack but only up to his reactions -- other Wheeljacks are just as bad, but a) they're better at getting away with it b/c they're not terminal show-offs b) they've got less use for system-wide minor power boostage, since they're not as much on the field and c) they at least have the good sense to be embarrassed and ashamed when someone calls them out on it being super unsafe.)
(What can I say, all Wheeljacks are goal-oriented Intuitives, if you're expecting one of them to do a Stupid Dangerous Thing, it's safe to argue all of them would do the same stupid, dangerous thing.)
(That's why I love him.)
(He dumb shit.)
