    Unanswered SKIM problem

    Searched the threads and I didn’t see this question asked. I’ve had the TJ for 3 years and a prior owner had removed the SKIM sensor. No problems starting and running in 3 years until recently when the engine would stall after a couple of seconds running and I got the P1686 code. I sent the PCM...

    I guess my SKIM died

    I've spent a few hours in the forum doing research, after my Jeep refused to start this morning out of nowhere. I thought I reconfirm my finding with you guys, in case somebody else has any idea - or ends up having the same issue. I own a 2002 TJ here in Thailand, and we don't have any Jeep...

    Jeep TJ crank but no start (SKIM?)

    Hey all, I’m at a loss as to what’s wrong with my Jeep. It started a few days ago when I was letting it idle before I left to go out & it randomly started misfiring, sputtering before it eventually stopped running. I tried starting it again & it would sputter for a few seconds before once again...

    If I buy a new ECM without the SKIM active then remove the SKIM before installing the new ECM, will this work?

    My jeep is stuck in shut off mode, use of old key likely started problem. If I buy a new ECM with out the SKIM active then remove the SKIM before installing the new ECM, will this work ? I'm not worried about theft, I just want my jeep to crank and not show the key alert. Thank you Toby

    Maryland PCM, SKIM module, SKIM key, and ignition cylinder (2001 Jeep XJ 4.0 auto)

    Long shot but I have these parts from an 01 xj I parted out. Jeep ran well, It was a 4.0l automatic. Figured if someone here wanted to retrofit a SKIM system to their 00-01 xj they could find this useful. Not sure if it will work on TJs of the same year. Looking for $200 shipped or best offer.

    Having trouble getting a new key programmed

    Hi, i have a 2000 Jeep TJ and only had one key for it, unfortunately I managed to lose my only key so I brought it to the dealer to have a new key programmed for it and they managed to get it started but it shuts off because the transponder didn’t recognize the new key (which they programmed for...

    Mysterious Radio Display Behavior

    I've had a problem for a while with the OEM radio display occasionally going blank. I eventually traced it to axially play between the key and ignition as seen below. I've only had one ignition key since I bought the Jeep and it's rather worn. The spare key has no SKIM transponder but is in...

    Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM) Install / Retrofit

    Okay, so this is my very first post on this forum (which looks pretty awesome so far). What better way to introduce myself than to post a how-to for fellow Wrangler TJ owners. Anyways, I live in a pretty sketchy area and sometimes leave my Wrangler out at night. Because of that, I want to make...
