It is in the dealer now. I agree that it might be related to the N3 fuse. The aux battery was replaced around 6 months agree when the start stop system failed. I really want to disable this system. My issues always seem to start with the start stop mechanism.
An update to my issue. Dealer replaced the power distribution module, the battery, and repaired the battery cables. Seems to run fine. Still wishes I could turn off the start stop forever. Keeping my fingers crossed!

I believe I'm having the same issue. Was waiting in line at a drive thru, Wrangler shuts off, only get clicks when attempted to start again. Used a portable pack and it cranked immediately. I pulled out of line in case it happened again and was met with the "Stop Safely Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon" message, ABS started complaining, and power steering went out so I pulled into a parking spot.

As soon as I put it in park the vehicle died again. When I lifted the hood there was a persistent clicking coming from the fuse housing. This continued for ~30 minutes until it appeared the battery was completely dead as I have no power inside the vehicle (dash was completely dark) and it wasn't attempting to turn over.

Called a tow, he arrived and we tried a jump to see if it would take anything which it didn't so had it towed back to my place. Was able to check some readings here and below is what I found:

All smaller fuses appear fine
High Current fuses 1 and 3 showing 3.6v
High Current fuses 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 show 12v
Main battery shows 12v
Still no power making it to any part of the vehicle that I've seen

Any help here is greatly appreciated. Can't believe I'm seeing this from a 3 year old vehicle.
Mine finally did the same thing and towed it to the dealer and both Batteries were replaced. All is fine now.

This thread seems to be a few years old but I have a 2018 JL that just hit over 50k miles. Today, just a few hours ago I had the same problem occur as everyone else. It was scary. I received "STOP SAFELY vehicle will shut off soon error message", after stopping at a red light. Next thing I know power steering went out, while driving, and I had to quickly pull over. Clearly, an electrical problem. It was like my vehicle was passed. Lights, display, and wipers were turning on and off. I had to have my wrangler towed to a dealer, mind you this happened an hour away from my house, and now it will be sitting at the dealer all weekend because it is a Saturday evening. I am very concerned what the process of getting this fixed, and if It will be covered by the dealership though it's out of its warranty...

I have 2019 Sahara been going on for 2 years now with my Jeep. Have had it in for like 9 times. In shop now and canā€™t figure out the electrical issue. Rig it works for couple months and back in. When I get it back they will buy back or I will trade in. Hope you have better luck than I have had. Good luck

@maesy4

Probably two new batteries and your paying about $600-700 (Out of warranty repair) and your JL will be up and running again. May also need a new alternator and that will cost you more.

Iā€™m a little concerned as this dealer didnā€™t do a great job on my steering box install! But hopefully theyā€™ll be able to figure it out!!

Does the v6 without start/stop also have 2 batteries and this issue?

Hopefully itā€™s something simple like some loose fuses but Iā€™m betting it a battery issue that plague a lot of JL owners and itā€™s all because of that poorly over engineered ESS system, ESS is not new technology but apparently FCA canā€™t get it right as problems with batteries still plague JL owners 3 years after the JL was introduced.

Let us know what they find and sorry for the huge hassle of being stranded.

Fingers crossed its something that can be done quickly. It's not like we could get a loaner and we are over 150 miles from that dealership
