Hey all, so I’m running a 2021 Jeep gladiator with the manual transmission. I have a starting issue, I’ve been reading everything on here that relates to my issues and have tried everything that has been posted. Aux battery delete, clutch safety switch, and checked every fuse I could find. Everything works perfectly but it just won’t start. Only thing left is to pull the starter but wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

Are you within warranty?

Yup but the dealer can’t look at it for another week or so. So I thought I would see if anyone else experienced this.

Take the battery out and have it load tested. I have seen batteries that show over 12 volts but fall flat on a load test. Do that before anything else.

What exactly do you mean by won't start? Is it not engaging the starter? Is it engaging the starter, spinning the engine but won't start?
I have all electronics working, and you can hear the relays clicking when I push the start button but the starter does nothing.

the battery has been load tested and I tried another battery as well. Still nothing! So it’s going to the dealership to be looked at.

What does your info page show for voltage? Did you pull the fuse doing the aux battery delete?

Start stop relay has to energize to send power to the starter solenoid relay. The control circuit is controlled by the bcm. Either ess, remote start or manual start. Start stop relay term 30 gets power from f2 via N2. All should be 12v. If you have power at term 30 and you can feel the relay click check term 30 of the start solenoid relay socket. If you can feel that relay click check for power at the starter solenoid. The BCM controls the relays. Did you try a remote start?

Did you check F2, 40amp fuse?
Yes checked all fuses, believe me I took out every single fuse and checked each one. I also checked all ground wires.
Its at the dealership now, my understanding so far is this should be covered under warranty but they will call me Tuesday to let me know what they have found.
