Okay, the possibilities are great. need to narrow it down a little.
If it fails to crank over it is likely the battery.
If it cranks over ok, but fails to start it is either lack of fuel or lack of spark.
the Quickest way to identify lack of fuel or lack of spark is to spray in a 2 second dose of starting fluid into the air intake. If it fires up then dies in this test it is lack of fuel most common suspect is fuel pump relay or fuel pump.
If it fails to fire up on the starting fluid test it is lack of spark. Electronic ignition trouble shoot procedure from your shop manual for your VIN number will be required.

it most definately is the crank shaft sensor. same exact prob i had. it costs about 60 bucks and 3 minutes to replace yourself. one bolt holds it into the transmission bell housing and one connector wire. very simple fix. call off the wrecker. just have plenty of ratchet extensions available i had to go in from behind the transfer case to reach the bolt but it was still pretty simple to install.

OK...I have a 93 outside...one diagram I have shows an ignition module next to coil...but there is none on mine, (4.0 engine)
Two items to check are crank sensor and cam sensor inside distributor. Test procedure can be found in just about any manual including haynes.
You will need a decent volt/ohm meter to do testing. You can also check codes by turning ignition switch on/off three times, leaving it on the third time. Check engine will flash code #'s (ex: one flash, pause two flashes= the number twelve.then followed by a longer pause then another set of flashes etc.)

I just had the same with mine, pull the rubber boot back on the drivers side front door and look for a severed wire, mine was black...simply spliced the wires back together and problem solved!

It is likely one of your battery cables loose. Same thing just happened to me today. What you need to do is first lock the doors, and close them. Then you need to disconnect, and reconnect the battery cable, then if the security lights still blink you must use your key to unlock the door, then it should stop blinking, and start just fine.

I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and my ETC light comes on after a few minutes of starting ?

How do you reset the electronic throttle control on a Jeep Grand Cherokee?"); display: inline-block; height: 24px; width: 24px; margin-top: -1px; transform: rotateZ(-180deg);">
Resetting your electronic throttle control manually can be a tricky job. First, make sure the accelerator pedal is fully released. Next, turn the ignition on and then turn it off and wait for ten seconds. During these ten seconds, be sure the throttle valve is moving by listening for a sound of operation.
