2023 Jeep Gladiator Problems .looking for any pointers

[Tiaraven]

Hey everyone - so I bought a 2023 Jeep Gladiator mainly because it was such a good deal. However I haven't driven it much as I am waiting for the title to come in the mail and don't want to risk getting it towed before that arrives. So needless to say it's been sitting for a little bit. It was working fine a few weeks ago, however today when I went to remove it from my used to be friends property, I started running into problem after problem. After bringing a freshly charged battery, it started right up and everything seemed fine. However not more than a few minutes later it died on me and has refused to restart. I'm getting the error code to check the electronic stability control. I read a lot about what that error code could mean but didn't see a lot of talk about it not starting as well so I'm not sure where to start. The codes I'm getting are:

P2107 throttle actuator control module processor
P0457 leak detected fuel cap loose or off
P0441 evaporative emissions system incorrect purge flow
P0456 evaporative emission system leak detected very small leak
C121C-00 torque request signal denied
C2101-17 battery voltage high circuit voltage above threshold
C212A-17 circuit voltage above threshold
C0051-62 steering wheel position sensor - signal compare failure
U0401-00 implausible data received from ecm/PCM
C121-00 torque request signal denied
P032F combustion engine producing insufficient torque
P2107 electronic throttle control module processor

Any ideas?

that many codes at once generally means electrical. if you're sure the main battery is tip-top i'd look at the aux battery. not saying it's that, but it's the cheapest and quickest item to replace for process of elimination, and one bad battery generally takes the other one down so the fact that you felt the need to replace the main means the aux should probably be done as well.

Replace both batteries and fully charge before installation....

I'd also look around the engine bay where the majority of wiring goes to the BCM. Maybe some vermin have relocated to your 2023 Gladiator.

Look for small feet prints on the black plastic parts. Or bedding material.

Definetly sounds like a battery issue.
As just a temp troubleshooting, hookup a good battery charger like a NOCO 10 try to see if the aux batt charges. Charging from the main batt terminals will also charge the aux.

I think there is a good chance you blew your N3 fuse when you changed the battery. This happens when you let the positive cable touch ground when you change the main battery and your aux battery is still connected. This cuts off power to the aux battery and system electronics.

Here's a diagram and a picture to help troubleshoot. If you have a voltmeter you can measure the voltage at the N1 terminal and compare it to your main battery voltage. If the voltage at N1 is significantly lower than the main battery voltage, the N3 fuse is probably blown.

There is a work around for the blown N3 fuse. You can see in the picture that there isn't a wire connected to the N4 terminal. You can move the wire from the N3 terminal to the N4 terminal which should get power back to the aux battery and system electronics.

What Jerry said - but also, don't just toss in a battery without considering that one or the other could be bad, or simply DOWN from sitting.
You should charge BOTH batteries, independently, and go from there.

If one was discharged and the other fully or nearly fully charged when you installed it, it could introduce issues.

You have two batteries - keep that in mind because disconnecting one of them still leaves the whole system powered up - hot.

Thanks so much for the replies, I'll update later today to let you know what I figure out. Also wanted to say any codes relating to leaks or flow are likely because upon inspection I discovered the previous owner for whatever reason installed a whole new fuel line and left the ones that are supposed to be connected open.. (I think - the holes are anyway? Sorry I didn't have anyone to teach me about cars growing up as my dad passed away when I was 15 and being a girl no one thinks you need to know these things even though you do - so I'm teaching myself so I'm sorry if some of this stuff should be obvious) Idk why this was done and I plan to fix that immediately.
