black box underseat

[meza]

96 jeep grand c i have a black box under drivers seat that fried up almost burnt my jeep up !!!!!!!!!!!!!! i put the fire out with my hand. i got to the box and disconnected it .now my power seat doesn't work nor the heated part either on the drivers side. i went to many junk yards only 5 or so jeeps and all the drivers side jeeps seats gone. does anyone have any info about this unit or problem? also any recall for it? or where can i find out about recalls on my 96 j g c . it seems to me to be a big fire hazard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the guy at the junk yard told me to put it back in and let it burn ,i don't want to do that it is almost paid off and i like my jeep ANY HELP?????? BOB IN MASS.

I have a 1997 JGC and the black box caught on fire also. The dealer here says there are no recalls on that part. I have looked at salvage yards here and all of those part have already been pulled. Seems like there is a definate defect to me. The part is the memory control module it is $350.00 new. But my plug burnt up as well. If you have anymore info on this problem let me know .
Thanks

Search for the memory control module on google or something and see if you can find any for cheaper than what the dealer charges.

aamech, meza's price sounds pretty fair I would follow up with him, and see what happens.
