Is Your Jeep Patriot Running Rough? Get Back on the Road with Confidence.
There’s nothing more frustrating than a vehicle you can’t rely on. If your 2015-2017 Jeep Patriot is suffering from a persistent check engine light, stalling unexpectedly, delivering poor fuel mileage, or simply refusing to start, the problem often points directly to a failing Engine Control Module (ECM).

As a technician, I’ve seen countless owners chase expensive sensor and wiring repairs when the root cause was the ECM all along.

By replacing the central 2015-2017 Jeep Patriot engine computer, you’re not just fixing one symptom; you’re restoring the entire vehicle’s electronic nervous system to its original, reliable state. This is the most direct path to fixing those stubborn, hard-to-diagnose electronic gremlins.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this engine computer truly “Plug and Play”?
Yes. As long as you provide us with your correct Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) during checkout, we will program the module specifically for your vehicle’s configuration. Once you receive it, you simply disconnect the battery, swap the old module with the new one, and reconnect the battery. No further programming is needed.
How do I provide my VIN and mileage?
You can add your vehicle’s VIN and current mileage in the notes section during the checkout process. This information is crucial for us to program the unit correctly for your Jeep.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light and performance issues are caused by a failing ECM, this part is the correct solution. It is designed to resolve internal module faults and communication errors. However, if your light is on due to a separate mechanical or sensor issue (like a bad O2 sensor or gas cap), that part will still need to be addressed.
Is this compatible with my 2017 Jeep Compass?
Yes, this module is compatible with the 2017 Jeep Compass “classic style” (identified by the vertical rear door handle) and 2015-2016 Compass models that require ID 5150941AB. It is a direct-fit 2015-2017 Jeep Patriot engine computer and also covers these specific Compass models.
Do I need to perform a security or key relearn procedure?
No. Because we program the unit to your VIN, it will sync with your vehicle’s existing security system and keys automatically. This is a key part of our plug-and-play service, saving you time and hassle.
Do I need to send my old computer back?
No core charge or return is required for this part. You can keep or responsibly recycle your old module.
