Ok, not sure what to call it, but every once in a while on my daugter's 2002 GC Overlander, it turns on, but doesn't crank. Best I can tell, when this happens, the little green "key" symblol is flashing, meaning that it doesn't recognize the key and has instigated a Nazi protocol and the Jeep doesn't start. Give it a litte time, and it seems to wake up and works just fine.

I've tried both the keys I have, and the problem is the same when it happens. It has always ended up working, weather I pulled the key out and put it back in, for 3 minutes, or just sat there with the key in the ignition for 3 minutes. But it seems that when it happens, it is a short peroid of time till it works. It started last week, and was rare, but is becoming more frequent, I'm afraid it will just stop soon and leave me stranded.

Is it the Jeep, or the keys? Anyone have this issue? How do I fix?

Thanks,

Joe
