Important Note on Market Applicability

It is crucial for owners to note that Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 08-413-25 is not applicable to vehicles built for the US market. This bulletin specifically targets 2025 Jeep Compass vehicles sold in Enlarged Europe (EE) markets, as well as NA, MEA, SA, IAP, and CH regions, built on or before July 10, 2025 (MDH 0710XX) and equipped with the 10.25-inch TFT Color Display (Sales Code JAU).

Symptoms

Owners of affected 2025 Jeep Compass vehicles may observe an "Incorrect speed limiter indication shown on the IPC when the system is set to imperial units." This issue specifically affects the display on the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC), leading to inaccurate information for the driver.

Cause

The root cause of the incorrect speed limiter indication is identified as an issue within the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) software. A software anomaly prevents the correct display of speed limiter information when the vehicle's system is configured for imperial units.

Diagnosis

To diagnose this concern, technicians should use a Scan Tool, such as wiTECH, along with the appropriate Diagnostic Procedures available in DealerCONNECT/Service Library. It's important to verify that all related systems are functioning as designed. If any other Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) or symptom conditions are present, they should be recorded and addressed before proceeding with the TSB's repair procedure. If the customer's concern matches the described symptom of a Jeep Compass incorrect speed limiter, the repair procedure outlined in TSB 08-413-25 should be followed.

Repair Procedure Summary

The repair for the "Incorrect speed limiter indication shown on the IPC when the system is set to imperial units" involves updating the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) with the latest available software. This is a software flash procedure performed using specialized diagnostic equipment.

During the reprogramming process, a battery charger must be connected to the vehicle to maintain battery voltage above 13.2 volts, but it should not exceed 13.5 volts. If the flash process is interrupted or aborted for any reason, it must be restarted. After the software update, all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that may have been set in any module due to the reprogramming must be cleared using the wiTECH application.

Required Tools or Parts

The primary tool required for this repair is wiTECH or Equivalent diagnostic equipment, which is used to reprogram the IPC with the updated software.

Important Warnings for Technicians

  • Battery Voltage: Technicians must install a battery charger to ensure the battery voltage does not drop below 13.2 volts during the flash process. It is equally important not to allow the charging voltage to climb above 13.5 volts.
  • Interrupted Flash: If the software flash process is interrupted or aborted, it must be restarted from the beginning to ensure proper installation.
  • DTC Clearing: After reprogramming, all DTCs that may have been set in any module must be cleared. The wiTECH application will automatically present these DTCs for clearing.

Warranty Information

This repair is reimbursable under the provisions of the vehicle's warranty. Dealers should use failure code CC (Customer Concern) when submitting claims for this Technical Service Bulletin. The labor operation for this procedure is 18-19-47-9H, described as "Module, Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) - Reprogram (0 - Introduction)," with an estimated labor time of 0.5 hours.
