Jeep Patriot wont start

Asked by Amanda Jul 15, 2019 at 03:37 PM about the 2008 Jeep Patriot Sport

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just drove my jeep home. Came inside and ran back out.
Went to start it and nothing. No turnover. No engine noise.
No ignition sounds. Nothing but a fan blowing in my face.
Any ideas?

It possible that the battery may need to be replaced. Turn off all accessories (i.e. radio, A/C, etc...). Let the car sit for 30 minutes and try again.

I have replaced the starter, all the relays (G8HE type) and got the battery checked by Auto Zone. But, this problem didn't go away. Please help.

Remove the inside cover, in front of the wheel well on the drivers side front fender(turn wheel right all the way, or remove Drivers front wheel) black box bolted to the frame is relays. i've seen several with a corroded contact in the top right corner(post 3 of 5 on the starter relay) replace the relay or relay mount box then tape/seal the wires above the box right to the current wire cover and the box water gets inside there and rots the spade connectors that mount the relay. mine was starting once in a while but finally rotted out and just quit.
