I’m experiencing a no crank no start on my 2011 Jeep wrangler. There are no issues when I first drive it, but once I turned it off only the dashboard light turn on the radio, windows, and A/C work but jeep is completely dead no sound. Makes me believe something is overheating or some electrical wire is burnt and throws the whole jeep power off. Since this problem started I’ve replace a new battery, new starter, New ignition switch, New throttle body, new engine control computer, new total integrated power module, I’ve tried to change the ignition switch actuator, but nothing wrong with it. Also I removed the whole alarm.
Have any Jeep wrangler owner experience this issue? I don’t know if it was cause by the heat in Phoenix, Arizona?
 
Following, have the same issues with my 12 jku. My jeep specialist said it is the skim module ( anti theft) . I’m starting to think it’s the automatic transmission neutral switch. (Inside the transmission) .

Did you try pulling the Fuse for the Security System to see if it was it? Have you checked your FOB batteries?

Should be easy enough to test with a meter and an ignition key.

Did you test the starter before you changed it out? Just use jumper cables and see if it turns. Do the same for the new one....just hot wire to the starter. Seems as if it's a ground, which is really true for all Jeeps, especially if you play in the mud....age and fun corrode all connections. Seems to me you're going about this with far too high s level of intelligence and waaaay too much money. Basics...get back to basics. Some little stupid thing is laughing its ass off at you. Probably something like a neutral switch . Too many things are working for it to be something smart...like the ECC? Yikes! I hope you saved the old one.... Good luck!

Problem Solved!!!
I’m glad I took the route of replacing a lot of things, because sooner or later they would of been a problem in the future since it’s a 2011 jeep wrangler.

My problem was a burnt wired that was from a tracking module/ secondary alarm system from a brand called spireon gps auto tracking device install by the dealership from where I brought the jeep. After I finish paying the jeep off, I forgot to asked them to remove it and had it with me since.
So the tracking module was tied into the main wire going into the TIPM. When the jeep failed to start that specific wire was getting very HOT! So the wire was cut from the tracking device and was repaired going in the TIPM. I believe since the TIPM was detecting something overheating being the wire it would failed to start due to safety

NOTE : DO NOT TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP! Take your jeep to your honest electrical mechanic, a dealership was about to charge me $400 for a diagnostic and if couldn’t find a problem they would STILL charge me.
Basically I was gonna get FUCKED in the get go.

Wow I didn't know that was a thing that dealerships were doing...

TBH, if it was a dealer installed product that failed and caused these issues, it seems like they could be responsible for some of these repair costs.

I'm just saying...

On electrical work? Absolutely! Techs don’t do stuff out of the goodness of their hearts. An hour’s work is an hour’s pay. We’re mercenaries. lol

What I didn't know is that dealers are installing tracking devices on financed vehicles. The OP's context implied that they installed a tracking device but it could be removed once the loan was paid off...

Crud, I did a quick blow thru the post and totally missed that the selling dealership did it. Only places I’ve ever seen anything like that was the buy here/pay here poor credit corner lots. Ooops? :(
