I had trouble with my door handles. Where did you buy them? Are they new? I tried moving just the auto unlock handle to my existing door handle trim since the used ones I bought were a different color. There was a small magnet in the trim that also needed to be moved to allow it to sense my...
I have an AAWireless and a Carlinkit 5.0. My MA-1 died after a year around the same time my hub did. Not sure if the two are related. All three devices worked well. The AAWireless has an app on android and can be set to not try connecting Android Auto until your phone connects to the vehicle...
That said it sounds like some of the 2022 classics had a uconnect 5 radio which I'm not as sure about. Personally I would be careful with 2022 as it may have a Uconnect 5 radio that my not be plug and play with previous Rams.
2018 through 2022 should work as long as the newer ones are a 4th gen (classic) and not a 5th gen. Here is the adapter I designed to hold the USB-C hub in the center console. I basically cut straight across from the square hole to the round on top and bottom and this adapter slid in to hold it...
I upgraded the radio in my 2016 eco diesel to gain Android Auto. The fact that it is a diesel doesn't have any impact on the radio upgrade. What you need depends on your current equipment.
Which radio do you have?
What climate control?
I have a US truck that had the 8.4" non-nav with the...
Are you talking about connecting to wireless Android Auto or wired? There is a way to turn off wireless Android Auto on your phone so that it would only start up if you plugged it into USB. It used to be simple but for some reason they've moved the setting to developer settings. You can still...
I don't know about the newer trucks but my 2016 keeps the USB ports powered even when the key and radio are off. I did this and now it works just like I want it to with my Motorola MA1
USB Keyed Power
This is the one I made and use in my truck. I tried to make it friction fit but with rough roads and temps changing sizes slightly I needed to add a bit of glue.

I'll give that a try and report back. Doesn't concern me too much as now I use the left side when I want to charge and keep my Motorola MA1 plugged into the left. Just wish the truck was smart enough to turn off the power to usb when the truck is shut off.
The part number was P68397098AD but like Mpgrimm2 says some people have had issues with them. Android Auto works great but only from the right side ports. Left side seem to be charge only. Haven't done anything to try and change that or investigate it. I can't remember if I tried my wife's...
I would check car-part.com for a push start button. There seems to be a number of them available there. I know a used RF hub will not work but a used start button should work.
I don't recall if my 1500 with the Alpine system needed the additional time to get audio or not when I swapped in a UAS. It's been a while since I did the swap. Personally I would try not to make any conclusions on functionality until the truck config has been read by the new radio.
If you have all the right parts (radio, hub, adapter harness) there is no software stuff. The truck software recognizes the new radio and everything just works. It may take some time for the radio to read all of the settings from your truck and enable all the correct options on the screen.
Yes the opening for the 2016 hub is different than the 2018 and trimming was necessary to fit the larger hub. A redesign would be required to fit the existing opening of the 2018. It could likely fit without needing to trim.
I used this hub as well when I did my swap since I could get it much cheaper than the recommended one. I used the adapter from mpgrimm. It's been a while but I do believe I had to trim something to get the connector to fully seat in the hub. When it warms back up I can look. On mine the...
I got my Motorola MA1 last night. So far it has been flawless. Plugged it in, paired my phone to the Bluetooth and watched Android Auto come up.
I first used it for a 5 minute drive in my wife's 2018 Pacifica with no issues but not much of a test.
Since then I've used it for multiple drives...
You can find him on here. He's been pretty active more towards the end of the DIY thread for this upgrade. I got my wiring harness from him. Very helpful troubleshooting some issues I had and a very nice wiring harness. @DoughRat19
Yep. Those are the ones. Your handles will work great once you put them in the door handles. Really annoying issue to figure out. Glad you still had the old handles and you were able to find the magnets.
I got the updated AlfaODB a couple of weeks ago from the developer (great responsiveness and help) and was able to pull my pin. Sounds like it is fixed in the main version now which is great.
Do you mean an 8.4 bezel that doesn't include the volume/hvac controls like the attached image or one that has no space for a volume control? Not sure the second exists.
