Why won’t my 2018 Jeep Wrangler start with a click sound?

My beloved 2018 Jeep Wrangler isn’t starting, and I’m kind of freaking out. When I try to turn the engine over, nothing happens—I don’t hear a click or anything. Any reason why my 2018 Jeep Wrangler won’t start without a clicking noise?

Don’t freak out! We got you.
There are many reasons why a 2018 Jeep Wrangler won’t start and isn’t clicking—the most common being battery problems.
Most likely you’re dealing with a dead battery, loose battery cables, or damaged battery terminals. If you’re like most Jeep Wrangler owners, you like to take your Wrangler off-road. And while this is fun, it can cause things to get…jostled around. So first, make sure that your battery has a charge, the cables are firmly connected, and the terminals are free of dirt and corrosion.
If you’ve eliminated battery-related issues, other possible causes could be problems with the:
  • Alternator
  • Starter
  • Ignition switch
  • Starter solenoid
In this case, it’s best to have your Wrangler looked at by a Jeep dealership or trusted mechanic.
