I picked up a 2006 grand cherokee recently and am working out the little bugs. the real annoying one is the airbag light in the center of the gauge cluster. I read the other threads and tried the fixes.
fuses under hood - blown - replaced ...... didn't do anything
don't think it's the clock spring because everything else in the steering wheel works fine.
playing around with the passenger seat (moving forward and backward and reconnecting the plugs under the seat) - worked .... for a day
light came back on
played with driver seat - raised as high as it would go, as low as it would go, as far forward and as far back - worked for a day
took driver seat control off and unplugged then plugged in - worked for a day
took airbag module out from under console - opened it up and used a heat gun to go over it to ensure all solder joints were "ok" - put it back in and it worked for a day.
while I was at the garage having a new TPMS put in spare, I had them check it and they didn't give me the exact code, they said the "passenger control module is bad".
anything else to check before taking it somewhere to get hosed from $$$$ ???
I don't have to be inspected until Feb. 2017, so I have time....but i don't want to start dumping money into things that aren't going to fix it.
