What about the engine to the frame? Or do JK's not have that? Just spit balling here.
Starter cable good and clean and tight?
What did you do to your JK today?

Yes and yes.
This is the kit so you can see what I replaced. https://www.jeepcables.com/products/jk-big-7-complete-kit-wrangler-07-19?variant=40888032329788
Dang i guess the JK system really is different.
Still with the click and radio reset, its sounds like a ground issue.

No power to OBD could be a PCM issue though. Ugh. My radio was working just fine too, I guess I'll tear it out tomorrow and see if that solves anything.
Yup, I checked everything in the fuse box very recently and wasn't getting issues. Does the power have to be on to check that relay?
@wranglerfix to the rescue!
Honestly you could call Mark and talk to him. He has some awesome JK guys that work for him.
They helped me on a JK we were working on at our shop and were super easy to work with.
You can send your ECM to them for testing too.
I run one of their's on my TJ.
I ordered a new starter relay fuse. When it gets here, I'm going to pull the TIPM, ECM, etc and clean everything before reinstalling it. Hopefully that will do the trick.
Heard a mysterious noise coming from the front of the 3.8 today.
Got home from taking Dad to church and took a gander at it.
Took the serpentine belt off, spun everything that would spin, the water pump pulley was making a noise.
Fired it up with the belt off, no noise, put the belt back on and water pump noise.
Hopefully will be replacing it tomorrow after work.

I took my TIPM out and I'm either going to be setting it on fire in a satanic anti Jeep ritual or mailing it to MAKs.
The latter fixed my problem. Only issue post install was I needed to re input things like ratios and tire sizes.
edit: I did not mail mine back until I had the replacement TIPM. IIRC
My issue was a dead key. No crank, no start. I did all the ground checks, changed every module I could think of that was cheaper than the TIPM, etc.
I can’t remember exactly what happened but it seemed like it was the same price. Their site is a little confusing but I did call and speak to a knowledgeable guy.
It's like $240 for a repair. I think a new one is $700.
Well got home from work, ate supper, started on the water pump at 6:30..... by 7:30 was finished, took BBJK for a 20 minute test drive.
Way quieter and no leaks!!!!!!!!!

Installed new Auxbeam headlights. Love these! They're bright with a nice cutoff. The halos and the startup rings are bright too. I'll try to get a better startup video.
