Heated steering wheel and seat control module

[scottijohn63]

Hi,
It looks to me like there are two heated seat control modules for my 2019 Sahara. One just the passenger seat and the other does the steering wheel and the drivers seat? Can anyone confirm this?
Heated Seat Module
MSRP $99.25
Part Number: 68438106AC
Heated Seat Module
MSRP $150.00
Part Number: 68438109AC
These are the two part numbers that come up when I enter my Vin and search for heated seat control module.
Thanks so much!

In case anyone is interested. There is one module for heated seats and steering wheel located behind the trim under the steering wheel. I took a pic of of the part number and was able to determine that 68438109AC was the replacement for my unit 68438109AA. I have ordered this part. Hopes this fixes my heated steering wheel! When I press the switch it goes on for two seconds and then switches off!

Did this fix the issue? Having same problem with my daughters 2019 Rubicon

My heated steering wheel issue was not the result of a bad controller, rather a melt down in the clock spring and wire harness.

I won't get the new module until Jan. 25th. The clock spring is next on my list if this doesn't work. I started by replacing the steering wheel. Upgraded to 392 wheel, and then added paddle shifters. Decided to upgrade airbag to stiched leather since I was removing the old one anyway. That didn't solve the problem. Next decided to replace module!

Geez. Did you fix yourself or dealer? Was looking at steering wheels on eBay but don’t wanna spend till I know exactly what it is. Seems like a common problem but no exact solution

anyone know if this was resolved with the 2024 interior refresh? I had the heated steering wheel issue on my 2020.

Doing it all myself. Would be too expensive to have dealer do it!

Will do!

Well….. did the remote start and wheel now heats. I’m at a loss.

Module is still on order! Will let you know when it comes in.

It wasn't the heated seat module. I was able to return it. I took out the air bag again, and noticed the wire plugged into the right hand side of the clock spring wasn't seated. I plugged it in securely, and my heated wheel worked for two days. I purchased some contact cleaner, and used it. It has been working the past two days. If this doesn't work I will replace the clock spring!
