jeep commander electrical issue

Asked by TabithaBee Sep 29, 2020 at 08:55 PM about the 2007 Jeep Commander Sport 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My Jeep commander 3.7L had recently suddenly died while driving with the
lights dimming, dash lights all went off and flickered before engine stalled to a
stop. Tried to crank a couple times after before it lost all power to the entire
vehicle. Got it running again and it has since had the pattern of running for a
few days or a week not exact, then the battery symbol will suddenly show and
shortly after the ABS, traction control & 4WD lights show before dying again. It
started right up when jumped but now when jumping iit won’t even crank, just
clicks once and that’s it. Battery and alternator both replaced so what kind of
screwed up issue is this ?

I think it’s the crankshaft sensor. It’s what I finally got after 5 years of searching. I’m going to change it sometime in the next week, I’ll give you an update.

I replaced the alternator & haven’t had any problems like that since. Now I’m experiencing it turning over but not starting up after every time I drive and shut it off. I have had to turn the key into ACC and pump the gas a few times wait about 5 mins then it starts. Happens every single time I shut it off after driving
