Default Help!

Hey y'all so I've had my JK (stock 2013 2 door sport) for about a year now and when I first bought it my air or heat used to crank right up when I needed it. But lately every time I start my JK my rear defroster light starts blinking and the air or heat won't start working until it stops blinking (sometimes takes up to 45 seconds). The dealership has no idea what it could be and I'm really frustrated. Any help would would be great!

The flashing light is the system testing itself or trying to recalibrate the blend door.

It's called the EBL status indicator. (EBL is Electric back light, basically the rear window defroster)
