| Description of the problem | 2008 jeep wrangler unlimited with 2200 miles, purchased new. Without warning, it would not start after stopping to get gas. When the key was turned, warning lights on the dash would come on, but nothing else would work. I remembered reading a thread on www. Jeepforum. Com about someone having a similar problem with a 2007 wrangler, so i ran home to read what happened with his jeep. Http://www. Jeepforum. Com/forum/showthread. Php? T=401047 several people have had the same problem, and one person said that he solved the problem by pulling and replacing fuse m13 to reset the sentry key system. I tried this, and it worked. The jeep runs fine, again. However, now i am afraid that it could happen again at any time. |
