I took it to my dealer with the TSB and bulletin about the trailer brake controller in hand. They knew me from last time, asked if I had any information for them, and I handed them the papers. The tech and service writer looked it all over and said "we'll take care of it - do you want to wait?"
Yes,
And they did take care of it. Warranty, of course, no charge. I signed a paper saying they had done the work (so they could recover the rate listed) and they handed me the fob.
No more goofy dash display, no more disabled featured. Press the button and it works like it should.
I told them I had a box of part for the passive entry and was going to install everything when it either warmed up or I cleared a bay in my shop. I asked them if they would be willing to contact Jeep and have the passive entry sales code added to my VIN and then flash my truck so it would be in there as if factory. Yup, bring it back when you get the stuff installed, we should be able to add the sales code.
Any trailer brake controller issues - take your JT to Dewey in Ankeny, Iowa and tell them I sent you.
