I know it's buried in here somewhere, just wondering if someone has the part #s handy that will work for a 2019 Sport S (already have the 7" Uconnect w/ Sirius antenna) for the HVAC control section and the associated sensors and any additional parts to get full function from the HVAC stack. And approx costs for getting it all together going through used sources.
TIA

This is everything I ordered. Benny helped me with part numbers.
Hope this helps.

There are many different HVAC control units and you need to make sure the unit you get has the functions that match your Jeep.

Got one more question, I have the Tazer Lite, this doesn't have the HVAC upgrade feature, I'd have to update the Tazer for $129 to get up to the full feature Mini version. If I go w/ a JSCAN, would I have to disconnect & unmarry the Tazer to connect the JSCAN, or just disconnect the Tazer without unmarrying it?? For those that have both, is the JSCAN worth it, or just better to upgrade my Tazer Lite? I do like have the code reading abilities of the JSCAN so IMO that might be the better route, because other than the HVAC feature I don't need any additional Tazer features that I don't already have.
TIA

This is the thread you want for what you’re looking to do.

After thinking it through I think I am good without the dual climate controls. In that case I would just need a new HVAC panel, and a jscan (and all adapters) to activate it correct. Is this what the dealer calls "flashing" the vehicle or that something different?

 

[Gregj]

I have both a Tazer JL and JSCAN, the Tazer is unmarried and in the box. If you are not using the “Live” functions of the Tazer then it is not worth the added expense. JSCAN does everything I need it to do for about $100.

Correct.

Yes.

So mopar is calling this the Center Stack? I have only seen it called the HVAC control panel thus far so this is good to know. The one I need is this one with the heated seats but also has bottom right that splits the parking sensor, downhill control, and screen off buttons. I have attached a photo but I don't know that part number.

I don’t know the part number you need, reach out to Benny @AllMoparParts.com and maybe he can help find it. Other option is search online for a Jeep equipped like that and use its VIN to lookup the part number.

Borrowed a Vgate iCar Pro 4.0 BLE OBD2 reader and did not work for the HVAC module. Ordered the recommended Vgate VLinker MC+ OBD and should be here in a few days. So be warned, there's been posts about that iCar reader ok for JSCAN, that may be true for other functions, but NOT TRUE for updating your HVAC controls. Here's the one you DON'T want

And this is the one you DO want~

 

[Gregj]

I use the VGate icar pro and it works for me. Did you use the 12+8 bypass cable? I hear that a Tazer will work as a bypass too.

I used the Tazer as the bypass, and the message posted on the JSCAN app that only the VLinker MC+ and the OBDLink MX+ will work for the HVAC modules
Maybe they changed something w/ the compatibility lately perhaps, no biggie, at least I didn't buy that iCar reader

Yay, ended up working after all, I went to the HVAC section on the first page and it said the only OBD readers that would work were those two I posted above, but then I slid over to the next page where you can go into the HVAC menu and selected dual zone auto, and BINGO, worked right away, and after only one stop cycle the touch screen climate controls came up. Thanks so much @Gregj for sending out that HVAC stack and your help along the way, YOU DA MAN ?
So upon further review, you can use this OBD reader lol, just be sure it's the 4.0 BLE model

Thank you! So just to be clear bc I am a newb and am about ready to place an order on Amazon. To get my 2018 JLU to recognize the new HVAC panel/ center stack I have to flash it with JSCAN with the above OBD reader (4.0 version) and the the Augocom 12+8 Adapter cable for Chrysler Gateway bypass cable for Autel Maxisys. Plus the JSCAN app and JSCAN vehicle registration of course.

 

[Gregj]

Yes, that’s what I use.
