TJ wont start after replacing computer

[Isaac]

I have a 04 tj that would stall when I pushed in the clutch while driving ..... thought it was the computer so my mom sent it to dealership they replaced computer but on the way home it died.. hasn't started since.. it will crank but wont idle.....I'm in the USMC so my buddys back home are trying to get her fixed up for me so I can bring it to base... if you could shoot me some opinions that would be awesome!

Well as much as I hate to say this, you shouldn't be trying to solve this problem, nor should your friends.

If you took it to the dealer, they replaced the ECU, and then it died on the way home, take it right back to the dealer and any reputable dealer would look at it for free. It's more than likely something they did, especially since this didn't happen until after replacing the ECU.

On another note, did the dealership tell you upon replacing the ECU that it was indeed bad?
