| Description of the problem | I work on drilling rigs in the north east often in remote locations. After returning to the rig from a trip to town with no issues i let the vehicle sit for two days. Upon opting to go to town i went to start the vehicle. I turned the ignition and had all electrical power but nothing to crank the engine. I tested all components i could before coming to the conclusion it was a computer related issue for a jeep dealer. I made the arrangements and towed the vehicle to the dealership 40 mile away. After having the vehicle for a day along with all my fault finding data the dealer called to inform me it was the tipm. After questioning the rep as to the causes of a failure i was told that it unknown but a very common problem. After an expensive repair and 400 miles post repair i have had no further issues. |
