Having trouble with a 2010 wrangler. Random no start conditions - not turning over. Headlights not coming on. Random dead battery. I believe this is all related to the TIPM but everything I read about that is fuel pump related problems. What say y'all.
 
I would check battery draw with alternator hooked up and not hooked up. Seen that several times on 3.8 jk,s
 
I’ve seen the same symptoms multiple times on the 07ish Dodge trucks and replaced the TIPM. I imagine the Jeeps use the same (or close) technology.
 
Friend of mine has the same issue with his Dodge Caravan. Apparently, the TIPM is on back-order probably stuck on a container ship in the Suez Canal. Since the TIPM was making the fuel pump run constantly, I told him to get a switch and mount it under the dash. Run a wire to the hot side of the fuel pump and shut off the fuel pump manually whenever he parks. Been doing that for months now waiting on the part and hasn't had a dead battery since.
