Keep competing causes visible.
Engine faults, exhaust leaks and identified sensor results remain evidence. A software reference does not cancel a physical finding.

A converter quote needs more than a code. Compare the diagnostic findings with Jeep’s software reference for this exact configuration.

P0420 alone does not establish a failed converter. Related-system diagnosis and exact software applicability matter.
Keep the complete scan, existing test results and software record together.
Reading context only; no finding is added.
Optional: compare an existing build or service record. The model badge and “3.6L” do not confirm ERC or DFT. Leave unknown details unknown; no VIN is entered or checked.
Application details remain unknown. This is background reading.
What findings and software record support the proposed repair?
The two original pages were read and visually checked; public source rechecked October 29, 2026. The document identifies predecessor 18-100-23 while giving September 16, 2019 as its issue date. That inconsistent reference is retained as printed, not silently corrected. Current applicability and revision history need confirmation.
Concise original factual explanations and links only; manufacturer procedures and images are not republished. No new license, restricted service information or physical-repair approval is supplied. Warranty wording does not establish individual coverage.
