    Ok, I had a 2016 JGC Summit and it kept doing the same thing. I changed the batteries both of them , that wasn’t the issue. I changed the fuse control module it worked for a while but it went out again. When I traded the vehicle they explained to me that it was the Control module ..... make sure you check out this vehicle before you purchase it. I had to trade mine within 3 months. It was in the shop over 4 times in 3 months .......

    You didn’t hold the button long enough the first time. You need to hold it for a solid 1.5-2 seconds for it to start. The last time, you went a lot slower and it worked.

      That’s what we think, but no it should start right away with a tap. I had the same
      Problem ended up changing it and works fine with just a tap

    Is the problems with the brake. The Brake sometimes gets hard or gets air in it so it don’t engage quick, that’s why it won’t start because it needs both to start. I just hit the break harder and it works fine.

      Mine just started doing this! I can barely push the brake n therefore the car won’t start. But then I leave it alone n check it after a few hours then it’s back to normal! So weird!

    You right about that I had to leave my jeep behind even with a jump. It did not want to start up because it was running hot, but it did not show on the dashboard that it was running hot. It said it was the cooler was higher, was running higher, I think it was the airbag system, the electric park brakes it needs to be serviced It was just too much to bear. but all that to say that car need to be updated with thesoftware that’s probably was causing the car to behave the way it is I’m not a mechanic, but Lord without a software updated it is shutting the car down and that’s probably what’s going on with all vehicles

  • @randyargs8356
    @randyargs8356 Před rokem +5

    It seems you only switch to ACC. Engine will not start that way. If you push the button long enough, like 1.5-2 seconds then it will start the engine. That’s the basic step of push button FOB keys. Hope it helps. 😀

      I have a 2017 Summit and it had this problem, I spent 300 or so for both new batteries. I've had it stall out in the middle of the road, the idle does this weird in and out drone as if the alternator isn't charging or something. I'm gonna get a tune up. All new spark plugs, harness if need be. And check the alternator. Make sure your battery connections are clean and not corroded which they shouldn't because they're under your passenger seat in my model
