I tried a couple of dealerships and they both wanted around $80 to do he procedure, since the TSB is for a 2004 and not the 2005's. I've given up hope at this point, unless someone knows of a decent dealer in SE Michigan.

It's in the owner's manual as a dealer activated option. Look it up & point it out to your dealer. My dealer enabled mine. I'm in Florida so when I called the diesel tech was skeptical, he looked up the procedure and when I arrived it was a 20 min deal.

Nope. I stood there with her (the tech) side by side as she went through the menus on the DRB and entered, enabled and exited the optional features menu. It's as close to doing it myself as you can get, took literally three minutes if that.

And, yes, I already wrote a thank-you letter to be included with the copy of my letter of complaint to DC to the Jeep dealership. I already know all the parts guys, and have a beer now and then with the Service Manager prior to this one who left due to a neurological disease. The parts Manager was also a tech for Jeep during the AMC years and has helped me a lot in researching past, hard to find information on the older Jeeps.

Why I didn't think of going to them in the begining, I don't know.

I had mine activated at Brighton Chrysler several months ago. As stated by others, no charge and it only took a few minutes to accomplish. Good luck!
