Modules or Relays are not going to sleep
or timing out & running the battery down

Have to leave the doors closed up to 1/2 hour with a
an amp meter on the battery & pull one fuse at a time
to isolate the circuit

You Tube has video on (Parasitic Current Drain Test)

SOURCE: airbag light stays on 2005 jeep liberty

It probably will cost a few bucks to get the code reset, but you don't need to go to the dealership, most shops with a good scanner equipped for air bag code reading will be able to diagnose and reset the light. The most probable reason for the code is the battery being dead for a while, there is a capacitor in the airbag circuit to make sure the airbag can go off in a collision even if the battery disconnects itself in the process. There is a slim chance it might be something else but either way the shop should be able to tell you what the problem is, and get it fixed... But, just for fun, before doing all this, i'd disconnect the battery for 30 minutes to an hour and reconnect it back, some systems do effectively reset themselves this way.

SOURCE: i have a 2006 jeep liberty and three lights are staying lit and

You need to take the jeep to a dealer or a good mechanic who can retreive the codes out of the computer. You may have a module problem but I will not guess without knowing the codes.

SOURCE: o 02 jeep liberty oil pressure light stays on

A couple of things could be wrong a bad oil pressure sensor, a short in the sensor wiring,low idle oil pressure. Checking this is simple on some models.

While disconnecting the sensor from its wired connector and the light stays on is a short in the wiring, if it stays off its hopefully a bad sensor. Before just replacing the sensor I would either buy a gauge to check the pressure at the engine and thus checking the sensor also. I HATE DUMMY LIGHTS!!!

Gauges are simple, easy to install and easy to see a problem before engine damage occurs. On the bad end of the spectrum of possible problems the oil pump may be worn out, or even the engine may be worn out to the point oil pressure loss at low idle or while oil is sloshing forwards at stop signs.

Hope helped with this. remember rated this help.

If the radio stays on and goes off as soon as you open the door, this is normal operation. Yes, this one threw me for a loop the first time I saw it also.

As for the lights blinking and horn honking, I would have to do some research to see what normal operation is. Many chrysler products do not have this built into their power lock systems. It depends on the security features of your particular vehicle.

My radio will not shut off when I pull the key from my 2003 Jeep Liberty. If I turn the radio off the clock remains on, is this normal as I cannot find this issue in my owner's manual. Thank Y

your radio clock is unlikely to kill your battery in any normal period of time, sounds like there is another problem with the switch and circuits connected to it. disconnect the battery cable in a dark area, there should be very little or no spark involved, if there is a significant spark then there is another problem, removing fuses one at a time and repeat test, may narrow down the problem circuit but may not.

2007 Jeep Liberty radio and clock come on by thierselves draining battery

both run off the key switch
so can be:
1; the switch,
2: a relay stuck
3: wiring hacks from H3LL.

ground has nothing to do with this, (only if missing)
this is a power feed problem 12vdc
all cars have 2 main feeds
power all the time.(hot all time , like PCM memory , radio memory0
and IGNITION feed, this goes dead, key out.
that is how to work but finding it is not easy
but with a schematic, id does.
ever heard the word, FSM? factory service manual, it has all that
and no, dont make you a tech. its just a book of faqs unique to your car.

get it from jeep they sell the FSM. read it.
or alldata.com

what i do is attach and ammeter to the battery lug. ask how.
then see the drain, ok, its 1amp that BE BAD.
i pull fuses to find who is involved.
then pull relays , to find who is related.
with these facts and the schmatic i find the drain.
i find out what branch is drain ,and then see that the radio pulled the drain ends. its not the radios fault.
i then backup to then next switching device, is it a relay
i make sure that relay is off, key off, or its stuck.
see? that is how you do it, and it only takes fingers and any ammeter to find any drain.

here is a good drain page, even has Duanes videos.

Radio stay on after Jeep is turned off

sounds like the radio it's the problem. to make sure it is, you have to do what mechanics call a parasite circuit test, simply buy a test light at your local auto parts store, open the engine hood and look for the battery disconnect the negative cable and connect the test light in series with the battery and negative cable, the test light will stay on indicating that in fact there is a parasite circuit drain, find the fuse box your car comes with a owner's manual this manual it's helpful to find the fuses in the car, now that you find the fuses take out one fuse at the time until the test light goes off, (important put the fuse back before moving to the next one) when the test light goes off by removing the fuse, that is the circuit that it's draining the battery, check the fuse number whit your owner's manual to see if the radio in fact it's part of the fuse circuit. if not then you have a drain somewhere else in that circuit, (important the car doors must be close while doing this test or the interior light will stay on causing a normal drain keeping the test light on. and if the test light does not come on when connecting it in series don't panic this means the drain it's too small and then you have to do the same test but this time using an amp meter which it's more expensive and more complicate than the test light.

I disconnected the battery on my 2008 jeep liberty sport to install a radio and when I reconnected it I got an "error" message on the odometer that won't go away. I did install a pac to adapt for...

its because the radio was disconnected from the computer as the alarm system is run through the radio so it doesnt need a code putting in every time the battery is disconnected ,so as far as iam aware its back to the dealer to re programme the computer to remove it from the memory or the computer

My 2009 Jeep Liberty constantly has a dead battery every morning. The battery stays charged throughout the day but drains at night. What is the problem?

Something's running, obviously. Get a volt-ohmmeter that can measure current draw, remove each fuse one-by-one, and test each circuit for a non-zero current.

2002 jeep liberty Turn key switch makes loud clicking noise. Light and radio will come on. Car is able to be jumped, will stay start until turn off, and will not restart

See that? Every once in a while I'm right!!! Reason is that the starter draws far more than anything else in the car. Lights and radio can easily be run by an otherwise ineffective battery, but when loaded (starter draws a bit less than 200amps), the battery will fall flat on its' face! When you jump it, the car is running off the alternator and seems to be OK, till you turn it off again.
