First time Jeep owner and problem on day 2
Hi guys n gals,
I bought my first ever Jeep yesterday - a 2001 Grand Cherokee Limited.
Everything was fins when I picked it up and drove it home.
This morning however, I just sat inside and wiped the dust off the dashboard when suddenly I heard a clicking noise in the right front. It was very weird as I don't think I had put the ignition key in yet...
Funny thing is that it stops as soon as I put the ingition key in and turn it.. even though the car won't start.
I made 2 short videos:
I have no clue what's happening here but i assume the battery is flat, which I can't actually see happening over night as the battery is pretty new.
I have noticed though, that the ignition key can be taken off even when turned, so I might have done that last night..
Any ideas?
Thanks and best regards from Ireland!
