If you have a model of Compass which only has a key fob with start/stop button and no place to insert a key, then try placing your key fob as close to the start/stop button as you can and then start the vehicle. Tip: You can try starting your Compass with its second key.

If your Jeep won’t start and you simply hear one click, then you could have a faulty starter motor. The solenoid could have enough power to engage and feed current to the starter, but a loss of current in the ground cable or faulty battery could be causing the starter to not crank properly.

The red lightning bolt indicates that there is a problem with your Jeep’s Electronic Throttle Control (ETC). This is a system that replaced the mechanical throttle mechanism with a sensor based one.
