Can I turn on the climate control in my Pacifica without starting the gas engine? Sometimes it starts the gas engine even when it's plugged in and fully charged. Also, I can't skip a day on my preconditioning schedule. Is there a way to do that?
 
As for me, I just pop out to the garage a few minutes before I head out and give that start button a quick double tap. This way, the van and battery get a little warm-up while they’re still plugged in, and doesn't run the gas engine.

Don't you have the Remote Start feature through your key fob or the Chrysler Uconnect app? It should work with one of these two.

Yes, you can use climate control in your Pacifica without starting the gas engine. Ensure it's in EV mode or set to "Electric Only" mode to prevent the engine from kicking in. As for preconditioning, unfortunately, it’s difficult to skip a scheduled day, but you could manually adjust it through the Uconnect app or settings when needed.
