    Installing OEM backup cam

    I had been reading this thread earlier this year planning to add the backup camera. Due to an unfortunate (stupid) accident in March while working in the yard, I had surgery on my right arm and decided it would be a bit much to take this on myself. So I bit the bullet and went to the local...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    Well, after looking at some of the questions y'all posted to my thread, I started to wonder why the PAC system didn't work. So I took a closer look at it. Essentially, when you connect it between the truck and the radio, all the wires are a straight pass through except pins 2 and 12 (P-Net- and...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    Thanks. I'm reading up on that one now. I really liked the PAC product because it gave so many options for triggering the cameras, including the Steering Wheel Controls. I'm thinking the ENZO for the most part requires the buttons on the center stack. That's not terrible, but hoping I can find...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    My UAQ is a 68331631AK running Application Vsn 22.6.0 When I check for codes, I do get U0213 "Lost Communication with Interior Mirror Control Module" (I hadn't noticed that previously). Everything seems to work correctly, including ATC. So not sure if that's a real issue or not. As for the PAC...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    I'm happy to say my 2016 Ram 1500 Big Horn now sports the UAQ 4C radio as well as Single Zone ATC. A big time thanks to @Mpgrimm2 for advice, patience, and (mostly) some great harnesses and a super cool custom bezel with a functional Auto button! All the advice on this site makes me feel much...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    Has anyone added front and/or side cameras with the UAQ 4C radio using the interface from CameraSource or Echomaster (both look like the same interface). It says it's compatible with 4th Gen Rams with 5" or 8.4" radios. It essentially is like the lockpick it seems (RCA connections for up to 4...

    Uconnect update failures

    Thanks, I really appreciate the response. My UAQ unit actually has a "manufacture date" of Nov 2020. I was just thinking that I keep seeing UAQ's referred to as "2018 radios". I probably misunderstood that part.

    Uconnect update failures

    Interesting! Thanks @SitKneelBend. I assumed OTAs required 4G and didn't think the pucks had that. One other question. I have a 2015 1500 Big Horn with an RA2. I plan to upgrade to the UAQ. When you visit the UConnect update site, you just enter your VIN. I assume that site will still think I...

    Uconnect update failures

    Do the OTA updates only happen if you have the shark fin antenna?

    AlfaOBD

    My son has a 2016 Ram 1500 Tradesman. He doesn't have a Fob, just a regular metal key. Obviously, he doesn't have remote keyless entry either, which is what he'd like to add. This past Christmas, I went to the dealership to get the price for a Fob and the needed programming to get remote keyless...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    After reading through this thread, I'm thinking the answer is "yes". But wanted to double check. Is it still the concensus that the 911 bypass connector is not needed for the UAQ install for those of us with the puck antenna? Thanks for all the great info here!

    How to add remote start to 2017 Ram

    Great! Thanks. Sounds like a job for my 27 year old son!

    How to add remote start to 2017 Ram

    Thanks. So did you disconnect all the connectors on the BCM? If so, does that allow you to pull the whole bundle to where you can work with it better? By the way, a bit of claustrophobia doesn't help!

    How to add remote start to 2017 Ram

    I'm new to the forum, and I have to say it's been fascinating reading the incredible information people post here. It's definitely addictive! I do have what I'm sure is a dumb question, but what the heck. I saw on some earlier messages in this thread a method that involved ground pin 11 on the...
