Not long after I got my 2011 (bought used 1.5 years ago) I stopped at the bank and when I came out and tried to start it wouldn't do anything. Had good lights and radio worked so I didn't suspect the battery. I did have a little red dot in the top corner of instrument cluster that I never noticed before. Turned out it is the key security feature and it somehow did not like my key anymore! Googled it in parking lot and found out I could pop a fuse for a few seconds and reinsert it, did that and Jeep cranked right up!
Don't remember what fuse it was right off hand now though it was over a year ago.

Okay. The paper work doesn't say much.
No start caused by:
B1A25 INVALID KEY, B1A29 BASESTATION MISMATCH, FOUND FLASH FOR WCM.
CORRECTED BY:
FLASHED WCM AND VERIFIED VEHICLE STARTS.
That is it. If taking a fuse out for a little while fixed this, I would really like to know which one.
Thanks for everyone help and comments on this. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.

i know people claim batteries junk after two years
but mine is near 4 years of harsh winters here in nh , still working fine, knock on wood.
I will replace before winter sets in im sure but not everyones battery will die in two years (just sayin ) maybe i got lucky on mine i bought my 2012 in november of 2011 still starts like the day i picked it up .
good luck getting the fix for your jk
