The blower does work, as does the A/C. It seemed like one side of the Jeep (I have dual-temp climate control) lost its heat first (say a month or two), but now no heat whatsoever, even set to 75+ degrees.
Any hints, tips, would be appreciated (either how to fix, or what I can expect to spend at a garage)
THANK YOU!!!

All of the previous answers are wrong. With ATC (automatic temperature control) and dual zone climate control I'm almost positive it's your blend air door being stuck or altogether broken. Basically you have Flappers inside your das that regulate heat/cold, left, right side and defrost, panel and floor. Th one releasing heat from your heater core is broken or stuck. This repair is somewhat costly. about 7 hrs of labor because the dash has to be removed and the parts (at a dealership) are about 400.00 so you're looking at about a thousand dollars at least. I've seen this happen quite a few times on the WJ bodystyle GC.

It's your thermostat. It would only be your heater core if you had liquid leaking into the driver side floor board. Follow your cooling hose from your radioator to your engine block. Where the hose meets the block that should be your thermostat. Undo the hose clamp, and then remove the two bolts holding on the thermostat down. Use a sharp knife and remove the old gasket. put on new gasket and then new thermostat, reconnect hose. Start up engine and let run 15-20 min.

Probably the heater control valve is stuck. If you follow the heater water lines out of the firewall into the engine bay, they will come to a mechanical device that will have electrical or vacuum lines attached to it. That would be the valve that controls flow of water thru the heater core.

Sounds like the heater core, Big Bucks

Check the level of the coolant in the radiator overflow tank when the vehicle has sat for awhile. It may be that you're just low on coolant.

Always check the easiest things first. Check the coolant level.

Before you do anything, make sure your thermostat isn't stuck.

It could also be your water pump
