Heated seat is usually an easy fix. Carefully remove the cover from the seat and you will find that the wires in the R/H bolster of the cushion are soldered into the heating element. They usually break here and can be re soldered easily. It's worth using the replacement modified wire kit available from Chrysler as these wires are a lot more flexible and less liable to break off.

Thanks for the tip on how to fix the seat Mike
I was really after a cheap manual on a cdr to fix the small electrical problems im having like rear windscreen wiper/seat
Anything other than small elec fixes/bulbs replacing means i have to take it to the garage because i havent the time to do anything on the Jeep with a 6 week old and a 2 year old
Thankyou for the offer though
If there are any Jeep Mechs in Gloucestershire that want some work
Please feel free to pm me
