I'm just curious did it go snap- crackle - pop? http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=82363
I'm glad you got it repaired properly, good photos & video.
Thanks! The sound of it failing was a *POP* noise.
Hard to believe that the box was glued shut by black goo, that was made of melted rubber insulation. That caused the plastic gears on the box to fail.
Can you say manufacturing defect !

True that!
The mode door wouldn’t even want to move by hand once I got the box out of there.
I think there was a short sighted decision made by an engineering team at some point.
Hopefully I won’t have to do that job again until 2029.

You did, and thank you for that. I figured I'd asked here too...the more info the better.Replied to your post over on JF.
I have verified that it is in fact leaking. Going to need to replace it. Also, I am told that it seems to be stuck on defrost. No heat to the floor. Fun stuff.
Also, doesn't this thing have a low coolant light? I don't drive it. My girlfriend does. I drive a WJ, daughter drives a Compass.
