I found a great price on replacement screens...

https://www.ebay.com/i/183864179347...pCXpWRLpoaxTlJ6wokp85f9JEDrCmWhMaAsuoEALw_wcB

I have mine open right now and it looks right. Part number to search is LA084X01-SL02

Adding to my earlier post, I've found that both the LA084X01-SL02 and LA084X01-SL01 screens work in a 2019 UAS radio. In addition, @Joe Gomez opened up his 2018 UAQ and identified the screen installed as a LA084X01-SL01.

I'm currently testing the LA084X01-SL01 screen in my 2019 UAS to see if it corrects the ghost touch/unresponsive touch issues I am having.

One note, the Aforementioned link on eBay states it is for a LA084X01-SL02 but I received a LA084X01-SL01. Both work but I'll be returning the screen unless they offer me a partial refund as there are cheaper listings for the SL01 screens (some evaluation only models are selling for as low as $70).

I'll post up again for anyone following who may be trying to solve the phantom touch issues with results.

Edit: Screen received below in like new condition with 5 layers of bubble wrap and shipped via Air Mail from China. It took 14 days to deliver.01928867ca0249d3584d9234bd89d304.jpg

First post here. I've been watching a few threads for a while and have a question. I have a 2018, 2500 CTD, came with the 5" radio and 4 speed fan. I have installed a UAS and it works fine behind the 5" bezel, but want to complete the upgrade. I already have the 2018 HVAC module, USB hub, and single zone bezel. If I'm understanding everything, I need to order the 4 to 7 speed conversion harness from M2Mods. Do I also need to order the 4 speed fan motor/resistor harness? Can someone confirm this? Thanks for your assistance and all the good information.
U will need fan resistor, 18 2500 HVAC module, plus the harnesses and more often than not you also need the Single Zone ATC add on harness & BCM config change via AlfaOBD (cabin Temp sensor) to ensure the 2018 2500 HVAC module works correctly.

M² Mods.

So I have done more research
Got my hands on a UAq from A g56 truck and still no back up camera
Unless manually activated

after checking through all of the settings it appears that there must be a difference in the actual BCM
I have the BCM from the 2018
But I don’t know about compatibility
my biggest question is I know the 2018 I need a security bypass
Do you think I would need this bypass if I swapped it into my 14

No, you won’t. Just put the new bcm in, and manually configure it to match your BCM settings.

Fingers crossed, so far so good with the new replacement screen. I have yet to experience any errors with touch response. The only difference I could discern between the different part numbers is the SL01 screen has a slightly cooler color temperature than the SL02.

Thanks for the responses.

Mpgriim2....I have the HVAC module and AlfaODB. Would you be able to hook me up with the wiring harnesses needed?

cool should be fairly simple
They are both Cummins G56 trucks
I honestly think the only thing I’m gonna have to do is turn off the park sensors I have every other option that the vehicle had already installed on my vehicle

I know Im in the minority but I'm just not a fan of the UAS/UAQ radios. I bought a brand new UAQ and ended up pulling it and re installing my RA4. I just like the RA4 better. I feel it's a better quality radio. The sound quality is much better, the screen themes and overall look are better in my opinion. Since I have an android phone I can voice text with the RA4 without having Android Auto or having the phone plugged into the media hub and it works great. The UAQ/UAS radios cannot play the SD card and that's what I use to listen to my music and they cannot voice text unless connected to Android Auto or Car Play. My truck is a 14 so I also had the normal 13 and 14 truck issues with certain things not displaying which was annoying. If I was an I phone guy I would have probably tried the UAQ a little longer because the I phone can't voice text on the RA4 and from what I have seen with my friends that have the I phones the Car Play is a lot nicer than the Android Auto.
