I have a 2014 2500 Laramie with the 8.4AN RA4 VP4 P/N: 68224525AF radio that crapped out. I have a replacement radio from a 2015 1500 8.4AN RA4 VP4 P/N:68238619AE.

To keep the firmware updated I don't believe I could use my VIN on the UConnect site. Would I just need any VIN from a 2015 that has the 8.4AN RA4 VP4 radio? Or where I could find the appropriate firmware.

Also when the OTA Update is released will it mess anything up?

Thanks, I know nothing about these radios.

I installed a 15 RA4 8.4NA in my 2014 Ram 1500 with no issues , plug n play.

As for the software update I have the Vin of the Ram truck my 15 RA4 8.4NA came from .
You can use any 15 Ram vin for the update download from the Uconnect site .

The 15 radios do.have a year spacific software so if you get the OTA it will be for your 14 radio .... not positive on what you should do as the 13 & 14 have the same Firmware , then the 15 has its own & the 16 has its own ..... maybe someone will chime in on the OTA update action you should take .

Keep us informed here on what you do Sir !
