2009 Jeep Wranger Navigation Radio Touch Screen

The touch screen navigation and radio on my 2009 Jeep Wrangler is no longer working. The buttons on the side still function properly, but I can no longer use the "touch" feature of the touch screen. The dealership wanted to charge me over $2000 to replace it. Is there any place else I can go that specializes in this?

    I have the same problem a couple weeks ago the sirius radio would flip to a different station so now I have 3 Classic Rewinds, where It was the 80's and classic vinyl and the nav touch doesn't work, I don't have ANY $ I'm going to take my Jeep up to dealer,and of course we bought it so no longer under warranty for leasing hope it's just as easy as a reset to do, can listen to radio media and that took alot of time to download those cd's in there!

I have had several isssues with my 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee radio for several months now. We first thought is was the selenoid then the battery, but finally realized that the radio will not turn off. The screen may not work, but internally it is still using power and draining the battery. So, when the batter is low, the screen and button on the radio stop working to save battery life. Apparently this is a constant problem and you need to have a circuit in the radio rebuilt and replaced. This will cost $900- 1K.

SOURCE: nav system

Do you still have warranty left? If so bring it into the dealer for service. Otherwise if you don't have any warranty left there is a software update the dealer can do that may fix it, if that doesn't fix it, a new radio is around 1900 dollars.

SOURCE: Navigation, radio, and clock not coming on?

Why did you replace the lighter fuse in the first place - something may have shorted something out? when you put in the new fuse does it blow right away? make sure the fuse is the correct amp for that spot. also check all the fuses - sometimes there can be more than one fuse that controls many items such as radio, nav, and lights.to answer your questions though no it cant really be anything else than a short blowing a fuse. you just have to find which fuse it is and where the short could be.

How do I set my clock on a 2004 Jeep grand Cherokee without the navigation disc or manual?

Hi Teresa, Im AL the owner of Big As Auto Repair.

Teresa, sense I'm not sure if you have a "Touch Screen Radio" OR a "Regular Radio" I'll tell you how it's done on both style's.

FIRST THE TOUCH SCREEN: Simply touch the time. Example: let say it's 12:00 O'clock, simply touch the 12:00 and it will open the time set and adjust the time.

REGULAR RADIO: Touch and hold the "TIME" which is next to the disk opening that you slide your CD into. By holding the time it will cause the time to start flashing, while it's flashing simply turn the knob that says 'PUSH AUDIO / SELECT" this will adjust the HOURS, should you need to adjust minutes simply push the knob and it will switch to minutes for adjustment.

Hope this helps and please visit my auto-repair-website at: http://www.bigasautorepair.com/

My uconnect in my 2008 Jeep wrangler have the time works sometimes it won't come on or you can use the touch screen to change radio stations. Help????

i cant understand your post. "have time" and (it wont come on) and
or you can use touch, << did you mean Can't ?)
tell that which works and does not. (
media center 730n? this failing
with Navigation?

get it serviced,?
this is what we call the magic features, Uconnect.
(window dressing bad?)
DIY ? what are you asking?
Help to do WHAT.?

or check fuses.
is car battery charged to 12.6vdc rested???? or at below 11v.?
does car run and drive? perfectly,

in the shop, they checks fuse, and battery voltage.
then they scan the PCM for errors, if they have errors the fix
that first. like bad comms to u connect/nav, radio , ,etc.
then work up to the actual head. finally replacing it.

these are fancy , complex to the max , high end options.
and when they bust are expensive to fix. '

my guess is you have this system.?
AM/FM (1-CD/DVD/MP3), full map navigation (6.5" integrated touch screen display), 1-disc data drive,
integral satellite & input jacks (RER)

"These radio receivers can only be serviced by an authorized radio repair station. See the latest Warranty Policies
for a current listing of authorized radio repair stations"
this means very special tools are needed to fix the unit
and access to special software updates in the unit.
go to the dealer an get just that.

2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Navigation Issue The

Look on ebay for an REC Joystick replacement. In the mean time you can hold down the middle button on the right side of the back of the steering wheel, where you can control the radio features. When you hold this button down, a little red wheel symbol appears on the navigation screen which means you can control the navigation system from the steering wheel controls. This works for simple tasks until you get the replacement joystick. They are about $30 and take about an hour to install.
