2015 Dodge Journey Won’t Start (Hard brake petal)

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 ต.ค. 2024
  • We experienced an issue with our 2015 Dodge Journey not starting. The brake petal was hard and it wouldn’t go down. If you run into this problem, do the following:
    • Make sure the ignition is in the “Off” mode (you may need to open and close doors)
    • The only lights that should be on the display is the message “Push brake to start engine”
    • Push the “start” button 5 times
    • Press the brake and “start” button at the same time (may take a few seconds)
    • Engine should start
    Hope this helps someone!

    Thank you so much. I had the same problem this morning 8/10/22 and had misplaced my keys thinking it was in the car so I kept pushing the brake and the push to start button hoping the fob would somehow magically be in my car and that the car would start. Unfortunately it wasnt and when I finally found my keys the brake was extremely hard to push down and my car wouldn't start at all. Thank you so, so much for this tip. God bless you and your family for sharing!!!!!

    I had this problem but the issue is with the TIPM, not a security issue. Either the connections to the TIPM are corroded or your TIPM is bad. This is a known issue with the Dodge Journey's...all years! This may be a quick resolve BUT it's NOT the whole answer to the problem.

    Yes push the push start button 5X wait for gauges to settle step on break and hit the start button one more time. (Make sure that your battery is charged or hooked up with jumper cables) this low battery state cause the journey to go into a “security mode” according to dodge. Honestly just buy a battery ASAP

    This worked twice for my 2015 Dodge Charger. The first time I had to try all the steps twice for it to start up. The second time, I had to keep pressing the push start while holding down the break for it it to start up. Since happening the first time on 12/6/19, I had to do it again today (12/10/19). Is there a permanent solution for this that anyone know of?
