I don’t know if that wouldn’t let it start I don’t know it just stoped running out of no we’re after running like sh*t

Wrong forum. You have a GRAND Cherokee, not a Cherokee, and this is a technical question, not general chit-chat. Oddly enough, there is a section for GRAND Cherokee technical questions.
There are a lot of folks here willing to help you, but you have to do your part. Punctuation was invented for good reasons, and it's completely free.

One thing I've found on WJs is a low battery will mess thing up really quickly. The computer doesn't like anything but a nice clean 12+ volts going to it's voltage supply. Anything less than 5 volts out screws up the programming and interferes with the bus system connecting all the modules together. After sitting for almost a year and being started on a jumper pack several times in that period, I had to get my PCM "reflashed" by a dealer.
