Ah my question was for the negative terminal clamp but I couldn’t see it. Thanks anyways - you know Jeep batteries! Unfortunate that it’s a common issue for jeeps. Thanks!
Shimming battery terminals can create a good connection. In this video I wanted to address the issue of a worn-out terminal replacement. This approach will definitely repair the problem and prevent future issues.
2016 JKU less than 30,000 miles, one owner. Won’t start, check engine & hot oil light warning. After sitting at dealership for a month in Jan ‘22 trying to recreate the problem and communicating back and forth with Jeep HQ. Replaced entire fuse box ($1200 dealership price w/labor) No problems since.
@@brooklyn7983 check battery voltage. Must 12.4 to 12.6 volts with the key off. Of course if battery voltage is above 12.6, battery is fully charged. If voltage is good. Use multi-meter, select volts dc. Make sure your vehicle is in park position with emergency brakes applied. Have someone turn key to on start position while you have multi-meter on battery. If voltage drops below 9.6 volts. Battery is dead, but has enough power to power your lights.

It's a battery issue. I have experienced this 2 times on the model. In year 3 in 2018 and in 2022.
What exactly is causing it?

Thank you for sharing. This will help out the community.
I’m having a hard time seeing the battery and both terminals, the camera is too far away.

I have a video on this process.
Hey Thanks, Yes It was the battery
Battery good no power to starter
Check power at starter relay
That is just simply pathetic to charge people what they have to pay for a new vehicle and get terminals that we need cotter pins WTH
On those cars if you disconet battery you have to reprogram tcm
