I can´t locate the driver´s door unlock relay. I have looked on the left side under the instrument panel where the fuses are located but can´t see any relays. According the information I´ve found on Internet the junction box where the relays are supposed to be should be located under the instrument panel?

By my diagrams it should be under the dash in the passenger cabin driver's side.

I give up. I've looked under the dash but I only see the fuse panel. On the back side of these I can't see but feel some relays. But it can hardly be them?
I have also read somewhere that it's not possible to change/replace a single relay. One has to change the whole JB. Correct or not?/Af

Here is a diagram of the interior fuses located behind the panel below and to the left of the steering column. The door lock fuse is next to the wiper relay. It is a mini 20 Amp yellow fuse in cavity #7. There should be a diagram on the fuse cover that details each fuse location. I hope this helps.

Hi again, I've changed the yellow fuse no 7 but it didn't solve the problem. I Think I have to contact a Jeep dealer with a workshop which is not that easy in Sweden and especially not in the area where I live.
Another question: To repair the instruments lights in the center instrument panel bezel, is it possible to change bulbs or does one have to change the whole panel? It's lights for heat regulator, blower regulator etc.

The lights in the instrument cluster are soldered in, if you remove the cluster you can carefully open it and re-solder in new lights. Otherwise replacing the cluster is your next option.
