While there could be several reasons why the remote start feature in your Jeep Renegade isn't working, the main culprits are a dead battery in the key fob and specific diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). If your check engine light is illuminated, it's probable that you won't be able to use the remote start function in your Renegade; this is a common safety measure in Dodge, Chrysler, and Jeep cars. If you've already checked the vehicle with an OBD-II code reader and confirmed no issues, then the likely problem lies with the key fob battery. Luckily, it just requires a CR2032 battery, which is an inexpensive button cell available for a few dollars at most. It's advisable to opt for a reputable brand to avoid risking damage to your valuable equipment in the pursuit of saving costs.
