My front passenger door wont lock after putting door back on. The power window works and the jeep doesnt say the door is open, but the remote start wont work because a door is open and i cant lock the one door. Anyone have a similar issue? Itll end up going to the dealer more than likely. I just would prefer not to wait a week or two to get it fixed.

Sounds like you most likely bent a pin or two in the door plug when you put the door back on.

It was bent pins. This was the first time with this jeep i put the doors back on, is this going to keep happening? My jlu had the doors off probly 50 times and this was never an issue.

Other members have had this issue: seems these connectors are prone to bent pins unless you're very careful when you plug them together.
Others have used some spray-on contact cleaner/lubricant to facilitate reconnection.
One member said they're using a dielectric grease, even.
