The van will not start. I've got battery juice (radio goes on, wipers go on, etc.).

just because the radio etc works does'nt mean that the battery has enough power to turn the engine over ,so try a jump start then get the battery checked to make sure its holding charge. if thats ok get the alternator charge rate checked, as if on the low side the battery will not retain enough power for all the vehicle's components.keep me posted

When trying to start the car all it does is click. the car has full battery power, as everything works. at first it was attempting to crank, now it just clicks.

Sounds like either the battery is too dead or the battery cable connections are dirty. A very low battery will still power most accessories, e.g.: radio, blower motor, wipers, horn etc. because they are not drawing much amperage, nothing over 20 amps or so. However, the starter motor draws around 200 amps, and the clicking solenoid occurs from a lack of available battery power. Check the battery to see that it's fully charged. If the battery is charged and electrically sound the most likely problem is cable connections or a bad cable. Hope this helps get you on the right track.

I have a 2006 jeep liberty the car runs fine i had my battery checked. it starts every time what could be the problem

If your battery light is coming on then going off this is an indication that your alternator or your voltage regulator is on the way out. I would have both of them checked. Have your alternator load and output tested. You can usually get this done free at any auto parts store. Your alternator may be charging just enough to keep up with your vehicle, but may not be putting out optimal power.

I would idoe your car and turn everything on ac to high, lights on highbeam, winhshield wipers, radio etc. If the battery light comes on under all of this load then your alternator is bad, I am betting that it will. If you are running radio amplifier and such like that it could be requiring more energy than your alternator is rated for and you would need an alternator that puts out more power.

Jeep won't start with good battery

sounds like a fuse or starter relay.if your battery is fully charged.check for power at the starter when you turn the switch. you should have a starter control relay in your fuse box/relay center.

No power to dash or dome light in 2003 jeep tj.

As far as the guage issue it is most likely a problem with the body control module, have a trouble code test run on the BCM to determine the issue, the stalling is caused by the loss of the idle strategy learning when the battery went dead, the best thing to do is the following procedure I use to clear this issue.

Here is the most common cause of surges and stalls (or very low idle) near or at idle, it is the idle speed control air-bypass valve and throttle valve, they get full of gunk over the miles and cause idle issues (stalls) like yours, Get a can of intake cleaner from any local parts store, not carb spray, intake cleaner, it is made by a company called CRC, remove the air intake hose to the engine, hold the idle high so the engine won't stall, then spray the can of cleaner into the intake while keeping the engine running, use at least 1/2 the can, shut down the engine and disconnect the battery for 5 minutes, then restart and complete a number of mixed driving cycles, town, freeway, stop and go etc., after a few days the problem will go away as the system will relearn to the clean intake.
