**WARNING: Bad Audio** DO NOT WATCH IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN. Now that, that is out of the way. In this video I have a look at a 2014 Jeep Compass that was dragged in on the hook because it will crank over but will not start. Let's see if we can diagnose it in the parking lot so we don't have to push it inside. -Enjoy!

Dude you absolutely saved me and my buddy we were camping in the most back @$$ place in pa and his jeep died what little cell service we had we found your video ended up making a jumper out of an old piece of Romex we found beaten down with a ratchet over a stump… got us home🤙
WHERE IS THE CRUIZE CONTROL FUSE CANT FIND IT IN THE FUSE DIAGRAM EITHER??
You sir, saved hours of diagnosis. Same exact relay is rotten on ours. Thank you.
can you do a vidio on a2018 jeep compass BCM replace
thanks for the help. ive had my jeep sitting for a couple months and was getting a crank no start. turns out it was the corrosion on the relays and I found them thanks to your video.
So what did you do to fix the problem? My dad's jeep has the same issue and it's got a broken prong in there. So now what? My 2010 liberty makes these jeeps like pos, oh wait the compass has always been a pos jeep.
I need to pull starter relay on 2016 jeep compass to check for corrosion or broken pins etc, have a no start/no crank condition
Hi, how do you pry off the lid on relay box? Looks like has tabs holding it in place. Also I’ve see video where the whole box is off the bracket it sits in, do you just pry off by hand?
Yeah….that's a Fiat and good luck getting any decent diagrams from a Fiat build.
Do you have the same wire fuse diagram for a 2007? Jeep compass?
I watch both parts and figured I’d ask as it gonna be to much work for me to fix the relay box. When you jump started her, did you leave the wires in place on the main relay to get from point A to B or can they be removed once the engine is running ? Also do the rad fans kick in or will I need to jump them as well. Trying to save me a tow bill, if I can get her to my local mechanic shop, then I’d jump the relays.
Wish you would get to the point.
Relay panel is accessed through the fender shroud….and not through the top of the vehicle. So much easier to see what's happening by removing the fender shroud.
I have a 2016 jeep compass Ltd sport and Mine doesn't crank ..I have to try it a few times then it finally turns on can someone help I took it to a shop and they charged me 170 just to tell me I need to start with getting a new key 😡
Still don’t know which relay it is… can’t see down there, try pointing it out, thanks anyway
jeep pilote
Yup . ..that was the issue. Cant say thank u enough
Thanks for dealing w wind. Ugh
"Lets put an electrical junction box in the wheel well. GOOD IDEA!!!"
Thanks Mr O. for another great vid.
Stay gold.
Informative video, but I'm technically impaired when it comes to new vehicles. I really just want to know where the fuse box is in a 2018 Jeep Compass Trailhawk. I can't find a fuse box in the cabin. I guess it's under the hood.
I saw a spark on the positive feed wire to the fuse box when you cranked it
finally: a video that sounds like it might've been made in Texas (traffic, wind, and milspec language)
Do you know where the rear defogger relay in the Jeep Patriot /compass
My dealership needs to give me a hand job after all the problems I have had with my 2017 Jeep Compass
U save my life, I had my 2016 compass junked for three weeks and this pandemic made everything impossible to get it service. My brother help me and we found that the gas pump was working yet not spark on the ignition coils. Your video was savior. We swapped the relay and on it was on the first try. In my case it was grim and dirt on the relays contacts. No sign of corrosion on the connections we tested all the relays and they all work, gave them a good clean.
My. 2013 jeep compass would not start today an i had to leave it at the gas station. There is no noise,no lights, no crank, very low on gas.We jumped it off a few times to get nothing but a mileage light came on for a sec. It was working jus fine before . Its like the car is dead
I have a 2014 compass with the same problem, after getting to the relays andseeing the same issue fixed and went to start, no crank. Any ideas?
fuck you USA, your crappy cars.
Hahahaha you said shit on YouTube
This video just saved my buddy a lot of time and money thank you very much
Can't thank you enough because of your video ,I'm up and running .I talked to a few garages before I saw your video ,would even give me a clue about jeep relay problems. I THOUGHT fuel pump problem ,neutral safty switch ,I was checking everything .Thanks to people like you posting I've still got money in my pocket for coffee and my wheels are rolling .Thanks so much for all your posting . I'm one happy camper. Keep up the fantastic work
What a stupid place to put a relay block. Five minutes, five minutes, that’s all I want with one of those damn engineers.
Greetings! How can I contact you?
Lol sh*t dropped it I say that all the time when working on cars myself
I was wondering why any engineer would think that that is a good spot for a fusebox, then I remembered that it's a Chrysler product. A friend of mine worked for Jeep as a head auto electronics engineer and he said they always do shit like this, which is why he left the company.
Damn, that is a cheesy aftermarket stereo; totally an eBay Chinese Special… Doesn't give me warm fuzzies about an infestation of weird things installed on that car.
It’s like a magic trick one relay two relays oh look four more relays lol 🤦♂️
What a stupid place to put a relay box.
Another chrushler engineered product….
Damn that wind noise is annoying! (hehe) Your video is fine! You can't do much about the wind noise.
"let's get a fleshlight"
You think it is bad now it looks like Fiat Chrysler is going to merge with Renault, the pefect storm. Nissan's reputation will be dragged down even further.
Good solid diag
Great Video Eric O
No complaints.. Love the sound of wind and garbled voices.. The extended views of your back and shoulder are outstanding….LOL…always look forward to your vids.
good video as, always!!!!!!!!!!
Ive ran into this problem once on a patriot and a caliber. Both times it was the starter control side tho causing no cranks
