So i have a 2016 Cherokee and several weeks ago the display screen on the dash would not change. It is stuck on tire pressure monitoring. I noticed that the only buttons on my wheel that work are cruise control. I have disconnected battery for 20 minutes, turned steering wheel , honked horn, hit the stupid thing and nothing......Any suggestions before i Pay someone to look at it?

Hi and welcome to the forum !
No idea, first time I hear of this problem. Sounds like bad contacts. It's definitely under warranty in your case (2016).
Maybe others will chime in.

Hi wvfd758,
Sorry to hear about this! We would recommend visiting your local Jeep dealership for further diagnosis as your concern may be covered under a warranty on your vehicle. If you would like additional assistance feel free to PM our page with your VIN and let me know.

The part that makes all of the connections on the steering column is called the Clock Spring. The wires are coiled up to look like a clockspring, allowing contacts while the wheel is turning. It is possible that something has changed to not allow completed circuits for some of the functions. Oh, and welcome to the forum.

Don't be so hard on the new folks. Forum life requires a little getting used to.
But while we're nitpicking, how about the forum section choice ? :wink:
I kid. Let's see how this unfolds, we could all learn something new.

The original was only "Not Working." He must have edited the title. There's hope for him. :smile:

You haven't seen the shape I'm in, after a week of too much food while on vacation. But that's good, I project the illusion of being able to pull off a quick exit :wink:Too tired to keep up

Huh ? Oh... right, someone did start this topic :wink:
Truth be told, OP is way better off in Andrea's care, rather than trying to keep up with us forum renegades (see, I was paying attention :laugh

Hi there. I happen to have the same problem with my Grand Chreokee. All the buttons are not working except the cruise control ones. Hope you have found the solution?? Best regards, David

Hi Dave, and welcome from Utah. You might have better luck on the Grand Cherokee forum. This is the KL Cherokee forum. Though we do share a few systems, they are completely different vehicles. Good luck, and hope you find the solution for your issue. Try here...😎
