    Warmup vs No Warmup

    I normally let mine warm up for 15 minutes. That's how long my timer for my remote start is set for. I had the emission recall done on my truck and if I don't let it heat up at least 5-10 minutes when it's cold its got really bad turbo lag until the engine is warm. Wish I never got the recall...

    UCONNECT® 3 WITH 5-INCH TOUCHSCREEN back up camera

    Yes it should. That's what came in my 2015 tradesman before I upgraded to the 8.4 radio. Worked just fine with the backup cam. If your truck doesn't have the camera installed already you will need to enable the reverse camera in alfaodb too after installing it. Settings for AlfaODB Rear View...

    Help needed on part number!!!

    I'm glad you found this. My dealer told me that they dont sell that cover separate from the wire harness. That's cover was missing off my truck when I bought it and it always drove me nuts seeing it every time I open the hood. Sent from my Phone 2 using Tapatalk

    Is there any changes that need to be made to the bcm if I'm upgrading to the 8.4 radio outside of changing what type of media hub I have installed if I upgrade that part too? I don't think there is but you never know. Sent from my Phone 2 using Tapatalk

    True. im starting to wonder if its not from a 2015 even though that's what the part number has lead me to believe. Still wouldn't explain why the update screen wont come up at all. I wish there was a way to force the radio into update mode. Is there any way to update from the SD card slot? Has...

    Finally got around to trying again and same result. Tried in run with the truck running, nothing. :( I wound up getting a new media hub with the sd card slot thinking that that might be the issue. didn't fix it though. im about out of ideas. may need to pull the radio to verify the part number...

    The one ive used in the past with the old radio is a 8gb usb 2.0 one from imation. my other one is a new sandisk 64 gb but I repartitioned it to 30 GB so I wouldn't have to force format it to FAT32. Maybe im just unlucky and need to try another drive.

    Nothing still. I tried factory resetting the radio to see if it would make a difference and still nothing. The radio sees the usb though. when I go to media it shows up. When the radio was resetting it showed an srt logo while booting before it continued with resetting itself. maybe a clue as to...

    Okay, that's what I thought. Ill try it again and update in a little bit.

    Yup I did. I turn on the truck and plug in the flash drive and it flashes but nothing happens. They have to be directly on the flash drive and not in a folder right?

    Does anyone know why my radio isn't seeing the update when I plug in a usb drive? ive tried multiple flash drives and I cant get the update screen to come up at all, all have been formatted in fat32. my 8.4 is a 2015 from what I know but I got it from infotainment so I don't have the vin of the...

    Anyone know if the firmware posted in post 4 would work with a 8.4 with the model number 68238619AJ? Just upgraded the radio in my tradesman and saw that the verified part numbers only went up to 68238619AH. Sent from my Phone 2 using Tapatalk
