Right down to the T… My mechanic couldn’t get a read at all after a severe ice and snow storm early Feb 2022. No crank. No start. All dash lights and everything worked perfectly. It acted like the clutch wasn’t engaging whatsoever and wouldn’t pop start. Towed to my mechanic who diagnosed my 2008 compass no crank no start as a faulty TIPM or worse, fried computer. My gut told me otherwise because it had sat for 24 hours in rain ice and snow with the front end pointed downward. It acted up sometimes after a hard rain… no crank no start. I felt I was doomed. So I listened to my mechanic and bought a used warranted TIPM on eBay. Car didn’t crank or start. I bought a refurb computer. Car STILL didn’t crank or start. Multiple forums, videos and frustration later, I found this video. It made perfect sense to me! Described it all! When my BF tore it all apart, it was the same. Same green cancer. Same affected plug. Same prong corroded and broke off. Same MF broken wires! After cleaning, electric grease, the replacement plug and mended wires … hit the key and my car turned over just like it was Monday Morning ready for work!! I couldn’t believe it. COMPLETE TEXT BOOK! Thank you so much for the info. 7 weeks later (had to buy a new car to get to work) I am back in love with my 2008 Jeep Compass again! Thanks for the step by step! How many other compasses are in the junkyard because of this simple fix? Mine was on its way. So glad I found this!
Great video!!! I had this very problem with my patriot last year, I had my mechanic do this specific task of removing broken relay prong and cleaning the relay box. He actually told me he learned something new that day. I now regularly check and clean the relay and look out for that green crap in electrical connections. Your video is the best I've seen on how to deal with this common problem. Thanks
With the help of this video, I just fixed the EXACT same problem on a 2015 Compass. And when I say exact I mean it, the relay I pulled out looked identical, same copper post disintegrated in to a pile of green mush. I have few suggestions for the next guy: 1) it was really hard to get the old broken contact out of the junction box so I used a very small drill bit and carefully drilled out most of the gunk, 2) after you get the new terminal connector wired up and fitted in to the junction box, use a multimeter to perform a continuity check before you go any further. The post you just replaced should have continuity to three of the other relays in the same post position, 3) make sure you buy the 3/16 inch (.187) sized terminals from the auto parts store, they come in other larger sizes and I almost grabbed the wrong one, this size works perfectly. Thank you Git It Garage!!
I have the same problem. You needed to take out the whole terminal and install a new one? Im debating on just bringing my car to a shop, not too savvy.
@@jhunt9666 If your relay is like the video, where one post has disintegrated into green mush, then yes you will need to remove the whole junction box just like as in the video and it will take some work. But if you have some skills and a couple hours of time, you can save yourself hundreds of dollars.
@@BudgetBronco Sorry, I meant having the crank no start issue. I will need to check if the post has corroded. I wonder if there is a way to securely check from the hood.
Hey dude, excellent video. My wife came home from work, parked dead center in the driveway then the car wouldn’t start. After watching your video I completed the repair myself and fixed the corroded relay! Keep up the good work
GREAT JOB! My son owns a demonic 2016 Compass, and aside from replacing EVERYTHING having to do with steering and suspension, this is my next repair. The car is being towed here from his job 50 miles away as I type this. Watched a few repair videos for the problem, and yours is BY FAR the best one I've seen! Hopefully while I'm making this repair I'll find and fix a 4WD failure that I'm told originates in the same box! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
I had to deal with pretty much everything you mention here, drove the car through heavy rain 4 days ago then parked the car in the drivway and this morning it cranked but no start! Thanks to this video I'll certainly solve my problem and hope it does for you!
Thank you so much, this is an awesome step by step repair video. My son's 2008 Jeep Compass 2.4 L had exactly the same corroded pin on the ASD Relay. The previous owner was having no start problems 2 to 3 times a year so this must have been getting progressively worse over time. I found that I could not get the same connector in the video to fit all the way back up in the slot easily. I found a smaller connector size on Amazon which I was able to fit with shrink tube over the wire connector repair which worked perfectly. Total repair cost In Canada was less than $100. Thanks again!!
Just following up, I was able to fix the issue following the steps in this video. One corroded relay leg, put a new connector and relay and it started right up!
Bro you are a lifesaver. I had to rewire the same wire. Had 2 relays with busted pins. Lucky I was able to get one out. But your video helped me so God damn much!!
Great tutorial, I know this is what happened to my 07 Compass , I was working on the power steering and had the battery in and out and I think a corroded wire must have broken, will find out in a few days.
Going to try this! Had paid to program a key for my 2007 jeep compass now it's doing this. Great video and information because would have overlooked this problem.
Thank you so much! I’m having this exact issue with my 2016 patriot- dealership quoted me over $2000 to fix, saying they would have to replace the entire headlight harness to access.
If you could show what the dash does and the sounds it makes when trying to start it before repair would be very helpful. Thank you for the video. They are always very much needed.
Thank you for showing the in depth look at how to take everything out id still like too see u take it all the screws ect out 1 by 1 but I can at least see how to get at the box which is a lot better than everyone else's video on this.
I would like to thank you for posting this video. I actually did the fix without removing the tire. Now the car starts normally like its supposed to after replacing the corroded fuses.
@Git It Garage. I've already shared your video on the Jeep Patriot Forum, to help the guys who've ran into a no start problem. Hope it was okay..... Chrysler Engineering sucks big time. But they probably know all about this and probably charge $500 or more to do what you did on your Compass.... Your video rocks, thanks for posting it....
Just did this same repair. I popped the white cover off and pulled the pin out. Relay was $38 from O’Reily. Jeep dealership was going to charge $62 for the OEM part. Brought my mothers car back to life.
@@martyjarnagin6370 I took the relay in the store and they matched the part from the markings. The dealership wanted over $125 for the OEM part. The part from OReilys was slightly bigger than the OEM part, so not a perfect fit, but close enough.
Amazing walk through!! We had this same issue with our 2012 Patriot and she is up and running again! Big thank you, this would have been so much more expensive at a shop!!
Recommend fixing the issue of the water running down the wiring harness or the problem will come back again. Even if you add the silicone fusion tape, the water works its way down the inside of the bundle of the wiring harness. The tape will aid the water to stay in the bundle and cause the same problem again.
2016 Jeep Patriot had the same exact issue - two of the relays had pins that corroded off. I am thinking of making a video using metal roof flashing to reroute the water away from the relay box.
I know very little about cars and have zero mechanic experience, and this video allowed me to get my girlfriend's 2010 Patriot up and running again. I can't thank you enough. Do you have a paypal/venmo/etc where I could send some cash to buy you a beer or a pizza or something?
Any video's on 2017 compass emergency brake going on w out pressing the button when you stoped at lights. The emergency brake will not release in less you turn your car off wait then try turning on again. Dealer just brushed it off like they never heard of it. Said codes never come up. Fustrated and scared its happened 5 different times.
By chance do you have the exact product name & part number for a 2016 Compass? I’d like to pick it up prior to installing it? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks
My jeep had exactly the same issue, this work was done to my 2012 compass, I bought this car three years past, two weeks ago it rained four days non stop, on the last rainy evening whent for a spin 45milles there and back, parked the jeep , it was still raining, the next morning,, crank no start. Surched within the same area as you did here and noticed there was little corrosion at that same relay pin so, I clean both pin and female and make sure of conductivity, still, crank no start, I also removed the harness tape from the relays up to where the harness splits and inspect all conductivitys at the relays, I switched or swaped relays, I've tested all fuses, battery full charge all the time,,, could it be the ecm or pcm is,,dead?😒
I think that's what wrong with my Jeep, is there anyway that I could avoid a towing if applying heat in this area, dry it just enough to drive it to a mechanic's?
Okay my girlfriend's 2016 Compass had the same issue we thought it was a battery at first which it was bad so I put a fresh battery in there and then check that relay which had green junk but no broken prongs. Seen the one in the corner outboard driver side with the green junk on it so cleaned it up put it back in and still no start not even a crank just stoned dead.What should I try next a new relay maybe that shorted out you think
I have a 20q3 patriot and the wires are corroded on this and I cant get the exact name to buy it online it keeps showing me thr main fuse box. If the wires are all green do I need a brand new box?
My jeep 2011 compass has the same problem. But my mechanic is having a hard time find a new box for all the relays. Unfortunately my whole box and wires were extremely corroded. He said the box is so corroded that he cant even get the relays out. The wiring is corroded all they way back to insulation of jeep. Now he gonna try and use wires and harness to move all the relays.
Mine had the same issue but it eventually would start after a couple times cranking it. I didn't have to wire in anything. I just replaced the Main relay and now it runs and starts perfectly.
also if u put too much dielectirc grease it is not possible to make a trouble with electric where everything could be all collected each toghetee because of the conductivity and all goes boom
I am came across the same issue, however my vic starts. The problem is for some damn reason my driver side fog light wont turn on. I found the same relay broken. The other issue that happen while looking around in the relay box is now my interior lights wont turn off lol. I replaced the fuse but no luck.
I have a 2014 Jeep Compass. I have a problem with the gas tank. It will only allow about half gallon of gas to go in at a time. IDK if its a big or small problem but i know its very frustrating. Im a widow and don't know much about vehicles. I do keep it well maintained..
Eric.. do you know any way to make one of these jeeps give you a code if someone already erased codes.... and now it just sits and cranks with no codes...
my 2014 dont have the same size with all the hole where the pin goe and its a lot more little say even my most little screwdriver dosent enter inside it
Hello, I’m learning to work in my car. How long will this process take a beginner? More or less. I have time and patience just trying to not pressure myself to get it done as fast as you 😁
Question my fuse block had no green lantern but jeep still shuts off. Change crank sensor, cleaned fuel injectors, throttle body, mass air temperature sensor please help please and thank you
Does anyone know if the wrangler has the same relays position ?my wranlger crank but no start , I've got the same code p0688 not sure if it's the same issues
I have the same issue with my 08 jeep patriot, except my high beams are not activating. The car starts and runs fine. Could this problem be linked to the high beams not activating? Thanks for the video.
Update: I was able to get the Patriot running using this fix, and test drove it to make sure everything was working. Today, it's back to the same issue of not starting -- no crank no start, but battery power is fine and the headlights/instrument panel light up. No fault codes. I looked at the repaired relay and connection to make sure everything looks good, and nothing seems out of sorts. By any chance, do you have any other suggestions for what might be wrong? Thanks so much!
@@DaltonRimmerGTO I ended up adding a push-button switch to the starter, by running a wire from the starter solenoid to the switch, and then a wire from the switch to the positive battery post. (recommended by a mechanic friend of mine) Then, you put the key in the ignition, turn it, and when nothing happens, push the button you just installed, and it should work! After a few days using the button, the jeep began starting up by itself and I haven't had to use the button since then (but it's still attached just in case) If you have other questions lmk, I can show you some pictures of how I did it
Plz i am lising my mind had a 2016 jerp no problems traded it in for a new 2019 jeep compass and losing radiator fluid? 1 jeep dealer put new thermo. Drove home from out if state overheated again even though gauges dont move. Pink been where bought they said they dont know. Any help. I found out sis 2019 jeep and friends 2018 jeep did same thing there both was hose seal leaking dealer wont check NO more. HELP
It was the problem. It wouldn’t crank initially. I had to disconnect and reconnect the relay and some wires and then it finally turned over. Idk why it delayed initially. Car ran great after that. Did complete fluid change, pads rotors and tires on all 4 corners, tierod end and rear upper control arms then sold it shortly after
I’ve got the relay with the wide prong and it fits into the connection without the white plastic cover, but still not turning over. I resigned the problem is deeper than just the relay as it sounds like a fuel problem now so I’m putting it back together to find it won’t fit through the plastic cover. So if fits in the connection can I just cut the plastic cover so it will fit ? Or do I need the right relay?
Right down to the T…

I tried this fix , it had a corroded relay I replaced it but the jeep still will not start What should I check next/?
throttle body
Good bro 👌
Mine was a different problem the battery was low in my key fob
Damn I wish I got as many views as you guys! 👏 Props!!
Thankyou thankyou thankyou! Dead on!
Isn’t that the fan relay?
that one is the fan relay, however the wiring diagram shows it is jumpered to the ASD from the power side, since it is corroded the ASD gets no power.
Quick fix is taking that box off the frame and just mount it right next to the battery frame.
Just did this same repair but im not even getting a crank. Relay looked just like the one you replaced bu my wires didnt break. Any suggestions?
I got the same problem not crank at all
Same with me no crank at all same corroded relay!
Then it isn't the relay that's the problem.
It was the problem. It wouldn’t crank initially. I had to disconnect and reconnect the relay and some wires and then it finally turned over. Idk why it delayed initially. Car ran great after that. Did complete fluid change, pads rotors and tires on all 4 corners, tierod end and rear upper control arms then sold it shortly after
Where are you located out of
I’ve got the relay with the wide prong and it fits into the connection without the white plastic cover, but still not turning over. I resigned the problem is deeper than just the relay as it sounds like a fuel problem now so I’m putting it back together to find it won’t fit through the plastic cover. So if fits in the connection can I just cut the plastic cover so it will fit ? Or do I need the right relay?
Did the fix, ran for 5 minutes, quit, and now I'm back to square one 😔
what state? it seems like it’s a wer and cold one? maybe that’s why your jeep went to crap
You sir are correct, upstate NY
also there are not a spare relay in the box one of those relay do nothing and just act like spare they say
Nic
Shit relay had a little corrosion. Cleaned it up and no crank no start
throttle body
@@jared7723 ended up being tracker turned the car off from friend not paying their note lol
I would have put the whole thing in a plastic bag or two
I also saw water inside the relay box , , poor poor design, makes me not want to ever buy a jeep again.
.5
Wast of time cleaning and reusing just repin it
Your showing a picture of a newer Jeep when you aren’t working on that same kind of Jeep. It’s misleading and dishonest.
awesome video, have the same issue and have parts ordered.
What’s the relay part number??
