OK that's different...First, you will need to check the battery for 12v. (no testing can be done without proper voltage there) Lights working does not tell you this.
You will need to do a code check before replacing any parts. Without testing there are numerous possible causes and it will cost you $$$ to replace all of them before "hitting" on the right solution. (you just found that out by replacing the pump.) There are other individual component tests you can do using a digital volt/ohmeter.
Offhand, the first place I'd check is the crankshaft position sensor. They are notorious for this kind of failure BUT don't replace it till you test it! post back with any questions and results you get. (in other words, we are not finished yet!!)

SOURCE: jeep compass accelerator trouble light comes on

This appears to be a failure of the Throttle Control Module, integral to the the Throttle linkage. It is a DIY practical project. Just take care to observe the set up as you dismantle the parts, and install them in the reverse order.

SOURCE: Flashing orange (!) light in instrument panel

It's a low tire pressure sensor. Each wheel has one, and a bad one will cause this. 2007 and newer vehicles require this. (Isn't that great!) First, set all of your tires, spare also, if it doesn't go away, get it looked at.
