REMOTE AS IS LAYING BED REMOTE?>????????
remote starts have huge list of reasons to fail. (BY DESIGN)
in fact some countries and states they are illegall(sic) period.
SCAN THE OBD2 PORT, IT TELLS YOU WHY, FOR SURE
CAUSES:
SOURCE: unable to remove key from ignition
shift interlock cable may be out adjustment or broken..you have to fcenter floor console around shifter..disconnect cable and move manually and see if key will come out..check cable attachment at shifter..there is an adjustment on this cable..pull up on lock on cable at shifter
SOURCE: Jeep Cherokee starting issue
On an intermittent start problem like this you may be having a starter solenoid issue or your wire on the starter from the key switch may be loose. Or you may have a corroded battery cable or the safety neutral switch may be going bad. Is it a automatic? If it were it would be the clutch safety switch going out. So do the simple things first. Clean cables like the first guy said if that does not fix it locate the starter and if you have jumper cables the next time it does it put the positive lead of the jumper cable on the Positive battery terminal and the other touch to the starter wire with the key in the run position where the big wire on the starter is, if you here it spin it means the starter motor is ok if it don't it is bad or the connection on the starter is loose. Also a bad battery cable could cause this from the battery to the starter next put a small wire into the end of the positive jumper cable and touch the S terminal on the starter if you here a solid clung it means the solenoid is good. So check the connections on the starter and tighten the starter bolts as they may have worked loose and don't have a good ground. So if you want more as stance just post on my question and I will hell p more and if this is more informative please rate
SOURCE: I have a 2008 Jeep Liberty sport it has 39600 back-up lights not
If you have tested fuses and bulbs with test light,and they check out,
the next step is to put you jeep in reverse with the key on,and use your test light to probe the wires before they enter the bulb sockets for power,if you have power replace sockets,if not check to make sure wires are still connected to back up light switch on trans,if you find no problem there,replace the switch
Testimonial: "Thank you for the info on my jeep. I brought it to my mechanic and he could not find where the new switch goes.I will bring it to the dealer."
SOURCE: electronic key on 2008 jeep
electronic key on 2008 jeep cherokee says key damaged or key not programmed. car won't start. some things work but radio won't come on. etc..
Probably a starter. It sounds like the starter solenoid is working, but the starter motor is not energizing.
You could try this simple trick, but Im about 85% sure you have a bad starter.
Have a buddy help you push the vehicle in neutral for a short distance. When you get it moving at a walking pace, put the transmission in Drive, and let the vehicle come to a stop. You may hear a little clicking, but thats OK, it wont hurt anything. Put the transmission back in Park and try to start the engine again. Sometimes the starter gear gets stuck on the flywheel and it wont engage when you try to start the engine. This trick may move the flywheel a little so the starter can engage.
