So unplug battery, leave overnight, touch the cables together, then start the jeep 50 times? Does it need to run/drive too?

Thank you.

Dude. Your a newb. You better chill and get used to it. I'm NOT condoning anyone's posts... But start calling vets and vendors dicks and your not gonna help your cause...
You did post your code issues. We're used to seeing P0300 type codes. Clearly a misunderstanding, so can we stop peeing into the wind?

Don't do like 50 starts in a row, just drive as normal. There are lots of posts on specific patterns of turning the key to on position, turning headlights on/off, etc... Hit the search function and look up "ECM reset" or "key on/off ECM reset"... Somethin like that! Good luck!

Well I appreciate it but I didn't have the codes handy, a Google search made it pretty simple...13 - MAP sensor or vacuum line may not be working , 23 - Incoming air temperature sensor, 24 - Throttle position sensor...you seem a little arrogant. Maybe less interested in truly being of service to others and more concerned with asserting your egotistical air of intelligence and authority. If you think you're right you are.

Hmmm... True... Check fluid levels. Adjust as needed. Could be TCU, but doubtful. See if new MAP and disconnecting the battery for a bit does it?
