    I’m having a problem where Immediately After My 04 wrangler rubicon starts up the engine Cuts off right away. I’ve been doing some reading and believe it may be an issue with one of the sensors in the air intake. I’m not certain. What else could potentially be causing this and What could I do to try and fix it and not throw a lot of money at it? Thanks!

    This is an easy to start trouble shoot. I agree before spending DIAGNOSE.
    The fact it starts then shuts down I suugest -

    1st - Is the jeep equipped with a SKIS (security system)* a key shaped light would be illuminated on the dash - advise yes or no.

    2nd - When you move key to run or start does the CEL lamp come on for @3 seconds? yes or no

    3rd - check codes - post ALL codes.


    * unsure what where to look? check in your owners manual. There will be a quiz later. :)

    Thank you for the help but it ended up being due to a faulty key I had made. Each time I try using that key this problem would occur but when I go back to the original key the vehicle works just fine. Thanks for the help anyway!

    If your key has a chip the duplicate key may not have the necessary chip. Just good for unlocking the door
