Dodge journey won't start ❌ problem (FIXED ) 👍🏼
Rented this car and one morning just didn't want to start anymore. lights on radio on and everything els. didn't look like a battery problem. Hope this little trick a girl from the dealership told me works for you as well. /////// rente este carro y al siguiente día no quiso arrancar y no parecía problema de batería ya que las luces estaban bien el radio también, hable con una muchacha de la agencia y me dijo que tratará esto espero que te funcione también.

I live in Florida. Thanks for helping me to help my mom start her car. This worked for her. She now thinks I’m a car mechanic.
We have a 2014 dodge journey and wouldn't start. I tried the 5 button push and it worked.. Appreciate it. I'll never buy a dodge again
Unbelievable. I first tried jumping it as that’s what the other answers were for this problem but after I jumped it, it died again. So I tried this trick. It worked perfect. How is it that people figure this stuff out. It’s pure insanity. Thank you for your help.
Wow, this happened to me with my 2015 Dodge Journey lastnight. I watched your video and I tried your instructions... It worked (although I tried it twice) Thanks a million!

Thank you very much it’s a very useful video, it worked on my 1500 today, their was a sensor of tires I keep on ignoring and when I turned it off it didn’t start again , you saved me today otherwise i was stuck at a gas station. It works on pretty much on all dodge vehicles i can say

After trying two times this solution works! Thanks a lot!. The only issue is now the doesn’t want to start normally, seem like I have to fo this trick every time. I really would like to know what is causing this issue. But anyhow, this workaround works fine!
Currently watching this as I experience this utterly ridiculous issue.
Thanks a lot Mr. FRANKO A NOTA!!! My mother would have been late to work but as soon as I figured out that it was not the battery. I knew it had to be an easy fix. I really appreciate the info but my mother of course appreciated me but she really meant you! God Bless

Customer had run car hot and blew head gasket car huh and already went to fail safe mode so that's why this method worked
Thanks for the video. It worked for me. Just had to use some jumper cables after I did this. The battery was low. So it would not start at first. But after the jump it started right up
Contacts in push button sometimes misalign . Engine cracks but nothing else. Remove button with small screwdriver. Pull button out and insert keyfob. If it works the you have the source of the problem. Later put the button back in without depressing the brake. Then push on the brake pedal and push the button. It will magically start up as if nothing was wrong!
Thank you sir, fan kept staying on long after off and engine cooled. Tapped relay to turn off but battery was drained and went into limp mode. Jumped battery and did the 5 button press and whahla . Thanks for uploading video
My question in general is why the engineers that make theses car don't step up with the answers

Thats a good question..
I think the manufacturer wants us to take it to a dealer for the fix. Problem is the technician s haven't had any classes on issues that may arise on these models. I don't know if this is true but, I've read in automotive magazines where the dealerships won't pay for there employees to take these classes. They have to pay for it themselves.

Didn't work
Unfortunately, issue is ground connector going from negative ground to starter. Replace the wire to fix issue.
Same problem in a model year 2014 (2.4L). Not surprised to see the problem has continued into the 2018 model year vehicles. Wish I'd done more research before buying a Dodge.
So I have a 2009 Dodge Journey SXT and I went ahead and started it up "5 times" as you stated. It wouldn't start at first so I started it up again "5 times" as well as lightly tapping the accelerator and it started running. I'll try it again tomorrow morning. I'll keep you updated.

sometimes on the cluster it says cannot recognize key, try this, use the key fob itself to push the start button, direct contact with the button and fob can dismiss the message and it will start

I'm in the same boat. Just got my Journey towed to my house. It shutdown on the road while driving. 2 people tried to give me a jump including the tow truck driver ...didn't work. Since its Saturday night, I can't get it looked at untill Monday.
its normally the battery in the fob is dead, always carry spares they are cheap and takes 1 minute to take apart the fob with no tools using the manual key in the fob to split it apart.How to overcome?..the fob has a small circuit board that is in the end of the fob, push the fob on the start button while pressing the brake and it will start, why do the batteries in this vehicle and porsches etc that have push button) dont last? Because unlike a fob that uses a key that only powers up when you press the button, it is always using power thats why you can open the doors with the fob in your pocket by touching the door handles or rear rubber button on the left on the liftgate. Id replace them every year.
