Old fart with a wrench
It has to be programmed by a dealer or a tech with the right equipment.

When you ordered it from NAPA did they say it was programed and did you have to give them your vin code ? you may need to call NAPA to find out if it is programed .

I may have the right scan tool to do it, but I don't know where the OP is. If they are in northern AZ maybe I can help. That is if the answer about giving the VIN to Napa is a negative when it should have been a positive...

To down load the program you need to get the program from Jeep or a service that has it . I would return the computer and get one that is already programed to your vin . There are places that rebuild computers and program them for you so all you have to do is install it and your done .
