Default Easy fixes or junk?

The problems im having arent major ones but there ones that are going to bother me in the coming months so I thought I should get to fixing them now instead of out in the snow when it comes. Anyway there not big deals but there problems id like to fix, the first problem is that the heated seats do not work whatsoever on any setting in my jeep on the driver and passenger side, it wouldnt be a big deal if the seats were cloth but there not and it kind of sucks to sit in them at 6 in the morning when its in 10's outside and before I went to buy the jeep the dealership had to replace the blower motor in the dash and ever since then my over head display dosent show the setting where it tells you the tempriture outside or the direction your going, im not sure if they couldve damaged the sensor for it or just left something unplugged or completely broke something since the dealership is known for half*** work, does anyone have any idea what the problems would be? Any help is greatly apperciated

If they worked and then they both stopped working at the same time I woud guess that it is a power pronlem.

Go to www.alldatadiy.com and get the wiring diagrams and chase it untill you find where the power stops.....it might even have a flow chart.

I don't think he was spamming you, that's a legitimate link, and if something stopped working immediately after the dealership worked on your car, why don't you take it back there and tell them to fix it?

They don't give you the repair info for free, this is the same info used by repair shops to repair vehicals. When I had my shop it cost me over 2000.00 a year....you don't work for free..... if you do I will give you my address and I have some work you can do...LOL


I buy a subscription for any car that I have to work on.....how can you fix a wiring problem without good diagrams plus it has all of the information for all of the other systems.

Here is the list of subscriptions that I have right now.

It was just my misunderstanding, i do not work for free, and i understand, i can use shop key at my auto program, but i havent really had the time to even touch that because the second i walk in the door you have to do something and im in the comp. lab about 2 minutes out of the day. Its a good program and i am familiar with this but i just dont have the cash for it right now.
