Default KK Heater not warming

Hi,
Have an XJ and have just bought a KK. The heater in the KK only has the FAINTEST of warm air while in my XJ you need to turn the heater down very low as it is very efficient.
Have had radiator flushed and thermostat replaced. Also removed water pump to see if it was slipping but all ok.
Anyone with similar problems or suggestions please.

I had the opposite issue but have heard others couldn't get enough heat due to software bug. Since mine was updated the issue never returned so I'd guess maybe yours hasn't seen a jeep dealer computer for a while or they were slack at applying updates?

FWIW our KK has the occasional dummy spit with the heater and a/c. Especially if it's on the demister setting. Try changing it around and then back to where you want it.

My KK also has low heat. When you turn the temp up to a high setting you just get mildly warm air (far from hot) and the airflow seems to reduce.

What could be going on?
