Why does my Jeep Liberty stall at start up?
Why does my Jeep Liberty stall at start up?
Since the Liberty is only a 2003, I can’t imagine any switch inside the vehicle going bad. In the engine compartment, it could several components which might be suspect. The gripe is, too much “juice” at start-up, therefore burning up the starter and or switch. It is simple to conclude there is an electronic short somewhere in the system.
What kind of problem does a Jeep Liberty have?
:sick: I have a 02 Liberty 3.7L V6. about 85,000 miles on it. never had a problem till two weeks ago. driving down the road and the car just starts stalling with the RPM gauge going nutz, then the cabin fills up with gas fumes,blows black smoke only when it starts acting up, check engine lite stays on, but not blinking.
How long does it take for a Jeep Liberty to start?
The last two days I’ve ran the vehicle in the company parking lot for ten minutes so it won’t die on the road. It starts ok, but runs a little rough. After about five minutes, the Tach goes from 600 rpm (Idle) to 5000 rpm (the engine does not rev up) then to zero. the engine dies.
Why does my Jeep Liberty make a noise when starting?
It never made the noise prior to the first replacement and now the regional tech is trying to tell me that this noise is “normal” and due to holding the key too long. All of the tech’s at this dealer have acknowledged that the noise is not normal and is caused when the starter is dis-engaging from the fly wheel.

What should I do if my Jeep is stalling?
Here’s what we are going to do to test it. When the engine is shutdown, the IAC valve should be parked in a position that will allow a large volume of air to enter the engine. I WANT YOU TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND UNPLUG THE IAC VALVE. When we restart the engine , the engine should be revving at a very fast idle.
