I have 2010 jeep compass,i get heat only from left ports center and right blow air but its cold.will change from floor to face to defrost but only hot on left side

dampers struck. scan it yet, most the newer jeeps , you can scan it or run self test to get the errors and clues as to why. the SM cover that, read the factory service manual or get car serviced.

How to change blower motor resister 2010 jeep compass

its under your glove box it may be your whole blower motor that has to be replaced. it also might be right next to your blower motor. you just need to remove the bolts and disconnect the wires. if they give you new wires i would replace them too. they tend to get a high resistance so that the blower motor doesnt get enough power

What are common problems with a drivers side window not going up

same on all cars. 1: lost power to switch 2: bad switch,. 3: motor, takes more power to go up, so weak motors cant. 4: bad wires to same. 5: window guides jammed. my guess is the switch. but a voltmeter answers this. if 12vdc arrives at motor up, that leaves what>? #5. use any voltmeter made.

I have a 2010 jeep compass and get a code of p0700 what does this mean

ah you posted DTC's in a serial manner that is bad, that. why not just one post and all symptom in just one.?? p0700s is transmission. the FSM covers this, what it means, and what it does, and how to find it. the car has not AI, artificial intelligence at all, it just does tests (called monitors) and barfs them when failed. you need to use a real scan tool to see all errors, not just the truncated dash errors, which are useless , but cute. scan it with a real scan tools that sees ALL JEEP codes not just p0xx codes, if not all this is just a wasted effort. sorry but that is the way it is.

Back door will not open on my 2010 Jeep Compass

via all way? fob and key.? it fails. is the kids lock off? there is a switch that prevents brats from opening doors, in rear. check that first. (the FSM covers this) if all ways fail then the inside if the hatch cover needs to come off and then find the cause (mech. /electric) or get it serviced the FSM book is here, buy one and be DIY, big time. or? https://www.techauthority.com/en-US/Pages/FacetSearchResults.aspx?make=Jeep&year=2010&model=COMPASS+LIMITED+4X4&engine=2.4L+4+CYL+DOHC+16V+DUAL+V.V.T.&producttype=Service+Manuals&ptCatId=3083

Will a faulty neutral safety switch cause a car not to turn over?

Yes, the neutral safety switch prevents the engine to be started except in park or Neutral. When the switch is faulty, it will not start anymore in any position.

Dip stick length

THE CVT? you lost your stick? (context?) I found only a plug.? sure. do you think, it even had one, then looked and it missing, hark, many dont have one. did you read the operators guide. if it skips A/T fluid checks that means , it dont have one. try stating what you saw, then ask a question, or all this gets to be dog chasing tail. CVT -II??? 4x4 or 4x2 car>? we cant guess this. 2.0 or 2.4 liter engine. (trans, can be diff. by engine size, on all cars) http://www.factorychryslerparts.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=676152&ukey_product=4312092 here it is, do you see a stick here? NO! now why? because folks guess, and blow up transmissions on cars IN WARRANT, is why. a nice $4000 blunder. wrong fluids or overfilled (not reading simple instructions in the oper guide and fail big time) this is nothing new, some cars now only have a side plug on the trans case, no tube at all. to learn more, get the FSM on your car and read the transmission chapter. or log in to alldata.com and read same chapter. i suspect the dealer has a special tool to do this. in fact , a real FSM would even show it and show the factory spec. part number . did you crack the seal? http://www.jeeppatriot.com/forum/showpost.php?s=3a995596de36e05f1027f1d0e51b08b7&p=242558&postcount=3 and uses SPECIAL OIL !!!!!!!!!! http://www.jeeppatriot.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45776 join a real jeep forum and get 100% better facts. and better questions. the level is check at an exact temperature. with a scan tool and with a miller special dip tool. have any ASE shop check it for you, no stealerships, necessary. good luck.

How to change rear rotors

is this your first ever disc brake work, ???? first read up on that, then ask questions. lots of pit falls in brake work. its in the FSM. factory service manual and at alldata.com bad rotors so soon? (are the wobbling?) or scored? cracked? just curious, here is the first google hit, amazing, huh? see warnings, there are more, (never use bricks as a jackstand) all this is FSM quotes, no need to as any one can buy it. DO so. http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f98/brake-job-548958/ now the nut shell 1 put rear on jack stands, tires off pavement, front end chocked. 2: hand brake set hard, if A/T set to PARK. 3: wheel off, lugs 4: behold rotor, detach caliper and hang it with , bent up, coat hanger wire. so as not to put stress on hoses, etc. do not damage ABS parts. ABS parts are fragile. see em there? above. 5: on many cars the rotor is not free to come off there are 2 exeptions some have screws there and others have stud, clips holding the rotor from falling off during tire changes. im not looking yours up, because its obvious on all cars what hold the rotor fixed. (a glance)

Blower fan stopped working upon cold start - fuse the likely culprit? Which one?

I think the fuse you are looking for is a 40A fuse under the hood designated F11. Should probably be first vertical row, third fuse down. Keep in mind there are 2 fuse boxes under the hood so make sure you get the right one. Your owners manual should also show you the correct fuse location.
