Jeep Compass: Hard Start Cold / Overheating? Don: Yep. Not a fan of the interim substitute/default values on certain parameters. Although in some cases the mfg will actually re-flash a sensor value to a default value and ignore the sensor input altogether. Like on my old 04 F350 6. 0L. Per Emission Recall 06E17 I believe, they replaced the defective EBP sensor, then re-flash the PCM, FICM etc to ignore the EBP sensor input and instead use a preset value. Go figure. Fixed the problem but seemed kinda dumb. Drive a Chevy 2500HD now.

shock shock, a Jeep with problems.
my daughter is a Rural Mail Carrier, every carrier in our post office is using Jeeps, except for her. we Avoid Jeeps like the Plague.
some Jeeps have had 3 transmissions.
3 carriers are reporting they need new brakes every 90 days.
One carrier lady got a eye opener last week, she added up all the Repair Expenses ( 2 trannys and other stuff plus new jeep Pymts ) and it is more than her Gross Salary for the last 3 years. Time to delegate jeeps to the junk yard.

I could imagine if youd go to a training class for theit scan tool equipment you would be the one teaching the ones giving the class how to use it. Lol. Like when I went to a georgia to a a. c. motor drive class we were telling them what their drive could do. Lol. By 10am they were like just tear it up. Lol. They learned alot that day. Lol.

Was there any consideration of trying to clean the terminal area of the sensor with a little water or electrical cleaner to see if that was giving the false reading? you mentioned that there appeared to be coolant on the male pins and this may have given an additional path for the electricity to fool the ECM.

I heard the new electric cars only a person holding a Certification and a Lithium battery license can work on those batteries. Then an electrician license is required also to work on those electric motors. What up with that Holly Ballony stuff? Give me cheap gasoline my electric bill is high enough: )

Eric, not sure if you ll see this. But just wanted to say thank you! I m not a mechanic. But I ve learned so much! I ve always been interested in what makes a car operate and everything else. And it s pretty cool and fascinating to see how intricate and complex Vehicles are. Love your videos.

Eric: -'Dang Rona is messing with my business. '
Friend: -'Oh, is it keeping customers away from the shop? '.
Eric: -'Nope, we have plenty of customers coming in. '
Friend: -'Then I don't understand, how is it messing you up? '
Eric: -'I can't smell rat pee no more. '

True. substituted values/processed data can get cha! I didn't even catch it at first! Thanks Eric!
Curious if you had to pull a subscription for this one? Programming something else on it? Or you just have a yearly?

You know it's a Mopar when it needs to have a throttle light! Had a rental liberty and the throttle had a mind of its own. Glad this brand is good job security!

What did we learn today? If you're going to fire the parts canon at an issue like this then change the thermostat and the temp sensor at the same time.
