I have a 2006 Renegade, 3.7l with 6 sp manual. The other day, it was hard to start. Not sluggish, just wouldn't fire. Finally got it to start after the third try. Drove fine for about 1/2 mile, then died. It wasn't a fuel starvation stall, just gradually lost power and quit. Fired back up after a couple of tries and drove another 1/2 mile and died again, the same way. Started back up on the first try and got to my driveway, 100 ft and it completely quit on me. I ran a code scan and cam up with 9 different codes.

-P0129 - Powertrain - Barometric pressure too low
-P2302,2305,2308,2311,2314,2317 - Powertrain - Ignition Coil Secondary Circuit
-P0508 - Powertrain - Idle control system circuit low
-P11B0 - No clue...and, yes the code scanner showed a "B".

I cleared the codes from the jeep and tried to start it again. It still wouldn't fire. So I checked fuel pressure, which was good off the rail at 55ish psi. Checked the spark on #1 and got nothing. My next step was to check the electrical connections at the throttle body, clean the gunk out of the IAC, double check the connections, and tried it again. I still had no spark. I talked to a mechanic who suggested the crank sensor, so I replaced it. The job was easy enough, and I made sure I had a good connection. I tried starting it again, still nothing. Finally, I disconnected the battery and left it overnight. I went out this morning and reconnected the battery. Gave it a good crank, and it still won't fire.

Any suggestions on my next course of action?

Coils are all good. Looks like I'm not getting a trigger signal. I've replaced the crank sensor, but still nothing. Any other suggestions?

Finally figures the problem out. All sensors, triggers and coils were good. After kolling the battery and getting a full recharge, I noticed a relay, strangely named the "ASD" relay. Turns out it was bad. The Jeep is running once again. Next projext is repainting the rock rails and roof rack.
