Ive been having this problem for months , new starter , multiple breakdown call outs and now ive just stubbled across your video thank you so much
Glad I could help
😮 thank you
I have no words to thank you for what you have explained here. I caught the same issue on a Jeep after following through your information.
With great respect thank you again. 🙏🙏
Glad it helped
DARM Bro, you went through all the work to replace the starter, and ended up having a bad ground connection :o I love and hate my Cherokee LOL
Thank you very much
SAVED ME SO MUCH TIME THANK YOU!!
You're welcome! I'm glad I saved you some time.
Just found this same issue. Had a no start with three engine codes. U110A, P0443, U0131. I tested battery which was good. Then just went from negative to block with jumper cable with instant start. I put a battery cable from a bracket on block to a new hole drilled by where driver strut is. I removed paint and bolted. Starts every time now. I almost changed starter also.
Glad to hear that you were able to fix it
👍🏻👌 Thanks for sharing.
You're welcome. I hope it helped
My brothers car didn’t start this morning, I sure hope it’s just a ground problem and not the starter
WAS IT???@@liamburgess5029
The two main issues with this Jeep is that everything under the sun is electronic on this jeep including the transmission and if it had a toilet on board, it would be electronic too and would tell you how many boats you left in the harbor also.
Ok, I spoke of the problem, now for the main problem, the battery terminal connectors are the shittiest ones ever made. I wouldn’t put these pieces of sh+t terminal connectors on a riding lawn mower because they are of the worst design possible and I can’t believe someone was paid to design these POS cables!
Because of these poorly designed battery terminal connectors, batteries only last two years if you’re lucky.
So this last time, I bought a new battery and cut two 12” lengths of 12ga awg copper wire and stripped off the plastic installation except one inch on both ends.
Before putting the cables on, I wrapped the bare copper wire around the base of the battery terminals, thread it through the crappy terminal lugs and then pulls them tight to the 10mm bolts on top of the terminal lug connecters before tightening.
I also added a 12 VOLTS LEAD ACID BATTERY DESULFATOR Revival Rejuvenating Battery Life Extender and connected to the battery. They run about $24-$26 each but worth every penny.
Plus I added a LED light bar and a 50 watt tri band Ham radio, which I added an extra positive and negative ground to the inside drivers fender where there is an existing grounding bolt attached from the factory.
Just remember, everything is electronic and you should inspect these connection points quarterly. Keep spare wire, jumper cables, wire strippers and a pair of needle nose pillars along with extra fuses.
It also has a weird cooling system also, so carry extra coolant and water for “Just In Case.” I hope this helps other fellow Jeep owners. 👍
Thanks for the info. Where on the engine did you clamp the other end of the jumper cable?
Can't remember exactly where I clamped it. However, any part of the engine block that is accessible and you can fit your clamp on.
@@triumphd17 thanks! That's what I assumed but I don't like assuming. I appreciate you.
have a falta they changed an engine Mountain an the drivers side and they disconnected the fuse box and when I reconnected it no longer started
Sorry to hear that. It may be that you lost the ground to the motor when you changed the motor mount. Did you try a jumper cable from the negative to a solid metal part of the motor? You also may have not plugged the fuse box back in properly. I am of course just guessing. Best of luck to you.
My 2014 jeep latitude is randomly clicking and then starts. I’m going to give it a try
Try jumper cable directly from the battery. Negative to a solid metal point on the engine. The next time it just clicks. You shouldn't have to try the relays.
@@triumphd17 okay ill give it try thanks !!!
@@triumphd17 just tried it out today and it worked !! Saved me 1400 dollars thanks 🙏
@@triumphd17 hey it worked thank you I appreciate the video and the help saved me 1400
@@sebichaos That is great. I am glad it helped.😊
What part of the engine you attached the jumper cable?
Any solid metal part of the motor that does not move
@triumphd17 you think that swaping a new starter was part of the solution? Btw Thank you for the video
No my starter was fine originally just a bad ground on the engine. All the effort I put into swapping the starter was a waste. That's why I was quite upset when I discovered the bad ground.
