What do you keep in your secret under-seat compartment?

me? small survival kit and ammo.

Just pull up and open it. Yours may have wiring and a module in it.

 

right, depending on your vehicle options, this compartment will/will not contain one or more control modules and the wiring.

my 2011 Durango CrewLux that I used to have had this compartment totally empty. I stored several emergency items as a just in case. small blanket, small first aid kit, extra batteries, extra cheap rain jacket sometimes. also kept my DiabloSport tuner and its accessories in a bubble wrap envelope. it was great.

 

Second battery location for police models equipped

 

Mine has two different kinds of wiring modules. One of which is a little rectangular box that can be pulled out of it's little slot. No idea what it does. But the wiring down there had one 12 volt on/off with the ignition and a ground to power my wideband O2. Really didn't want to mess with the middle screen console, so that worked out.

 

Smuggling compartment for contraband

 

I just went out and found that box! Thank you. Pretty big, only found one small module box. I can put the owner's manual in there since they took away the shelf in the glove box. Looked under the passenger seat, there is one also. Popped it up and found the battery. Now, I'm guessing that if you ever have to replace the battery, that the seat has to be removed first. Not seeing there is enough room to maneuver it out. Does anyone know? Only had my 2021 R/T for 2 weeks.

You just slide the seat forward and there is just enough room to replace the battery

 

Thank you for replying ! That makes sense. I will have to check this out tomorrow since its raining here now.

Pull it all the way forward, lift all the way up... There is plenty of room to change battery. If the battery ever completely dies on you, you can use the jumping posts on passenger side of engine compartment..to get the seat forward.

I wouldn't say there's plenty of room, but it's doable without pulling the seat for sure.

I've changed my battery in my previous 2011. it was tight with the seat all the way forward but I was able to do what I needed.

 

Passenger seat raise it high go fwd all the way, an tilt fwd. Can take battery out. But yes can take seat out. Just extra work

 

Why are you replying to a 2 year old thread when we all know how the battery comes out?

 

Err, I dont know that 😬

 

Up against the wall and spread 'em!
