2 Automatic Transmission Control Module problem

Failure Date: 12/18/2024

Cranked up Jeep and had no warning lights. Pulled onto highway, electronic stability control alarm sounded. Made it to stop light, stopped, Jeep did not cut off but showed an alarm where it would not move until it was put in park then back in drive. This happened 4 times then stopped. I turned off of the highway onto a different road, got up to speed (approx 60mph) the esc warning came back on and went off. Jeep did not cut off but it jerked a few times then the rpms shot up to around 9 without me pressing the gas. I was able to pull over, cut it off and sit for a min. Then I cranked it back up and it ran fine for about 5 miles then going about 60mph it lunged forward with no speed increase, rpms shot up again and a transmission code came up on the dash screen. I pulled over, my husband came and we put it on a trailer and carried it home. Ran diagnostics and changed both the main and auxiliary battery and it was fine for about a month. I went to run errands about a month later, got in and all the electrical would come on but it would not crank and all the gears on the shifter showed in orange and blinked instead of orange and white like normal. The electrical would not cut off without unhooking both batteries. Tested batteries, auxiliary was completely dead. Replaced it, Jeep still would not crank and the electrical stayed on unless the batteries were disconnected. Trailered it to the dealership, they did multiple tests to find out it was the tcm. First incident occured 12/18/24, second incident occurred 1/17/24.
