    UAQ pin out connector for backup cam, solution here!

    The radio knows the truck is in reverse. So my guess is either the camera isn’t getting power or you don’t have the connections right to receive the signal to the radio.

    UAQ pin out connector for backup cam, solution here!

    The connections at the radio are just the video signal. The camera would get its power when the reverse lights come on.

    UAQ pin out connector for backup cam, solution here!

    Not sure about the camera. Did it come with a wiring harness? Plug and play?

    UAQ pin out connector for backup cam, solution here!

    If you had/have the 3.0 radio with your backup camera in your mirror the radio harness is not populated with any pin connectors. I used an existing RC connector I had for that. I just used a pick to push them in. You also need to tap the wiring harness on the passenger side at the side dash...

    CarPlay media hub 13-17 Ram (Sold)

    I’m sorry, I didn’t get an email notification that I received a reply. I don’t have picture of it installed. I sold the truck. It’s slightly taller than the stock hub but it’s the only option if you’re installing a UAQ radio

    2018 Ram 3500 srw 6.4 motor I have serious problems

    2500 trucks are typically used for work purposes. Pretty sure if it was previously registered as commercial truck that would be why warranty restrictions would apply. Might only get the 3 year 36000 warranty which is now over.

    FYI media hub for 2018+ CarPlay

    There’s two part numbers that this new number replaces. I’m assuming they only make one now that will work with both. I couldn’t find that information. I was unsure which year they changed the style. I’ve listed the one from my 16 Ram for sale with the harness adapter so I guess it will work...

    CarPlay media hub 13-17 Ram (Sold)

    I have the UAQ CarPlay media hub that was in my 2016 Ram 1500. I “Think” it will fit 13-17 trucks but I’m not sure when they changed style. This includes the harness adapter. $50 shipped in the US. You do have to modify your console opening slightly for this to work. Confirm it will work in...

    FYI media hub for 2018+ CarPlay

    Just an FYI. I purchased my UAQ kit from infotainment.com to fit my 2016 Ram. I got another truck, 2019 classic and transferred the head unit to this truck. It had the 5” screen radio. The stock media hub in the truck is NOT compatible. You need part #68328704AD. It’s plug and play. I searched...

    Your opinion: Linkswell 10" screen or factory 8" with android auto

    I too went through this same dilemma. I had a Phoenix automotive 12.1 kit. I hated the Android interface. Mine wasn’t a fast boot either which was even more frustrating. I did purchase a complete kit from infotainment.com for my 16 Ram. Yes, I paid almost 2K for the 8.4 Nav unit but mine was...

    Ecodiesel failure theory

    I found some dude on YouTube, not sure his qualifications. This was after watching another guy who’s channel is “I do cars” He’s a parts recycler. He did a tear down on an Ecodiesel. All the main bearings went bad. Not one or two but all. The other guy went into explaining what he felt is...

    Any advice on fighting a warranty company

    I always go to a well known local oil change shop. Not jiffy lube or oil express. They can pull all my records. I’m done changing oil in my vehicles. When the indicator light comes on, I get it changed. Typically it’s around $160 because it’s an Ecodiesel. I change the fuel filter myself. Every...

    I’m an idiot! Warranty company

    I went to my local dealer that I would typically buy my Dodge or Ram vehicles from. They try not to sell any Mopar warranties anymore. They use a company called Continental Warranty Inc. They say they have less hassle getting things covered. He quoted me $2400 for a 4 year 48K. It’s almost a...

    I’m an idiot! Warranty company

    I’ve seen their BBB complaints. Yes, most are Whiny people. From what I understand, these motors suffer from main bearing failure. A FCA 5 star warranty will know to change the engine because it’s not repairable. Secondary companies will try and repair it. When they find out it’s not...

    I’m an idiot! Warranty company

    My main concern is the motor. I was reading a post on here about a guy who did a rebuild on his Eco. Parts are scarce. You can buy a crate motor for $7500 with no core charge. That tells you right there they are disposable engines.

    I’m an idiot! Warranty company

    When I bought my 2016 Ecodiesel preowned in November of 2019 I purchased a service contract. 7 year 100k only because of the potential engine issues. My factory warranty runs out the end of this month. I decided to get my extended warranty info out and read it. I thought I purchased a FCA 5 star...

    1100 mile trip in 2020 Hemi Warlock, mpg’s

    I had to take a trip to Tennessee from PA to pick up a new takeoff bed for my 16 Ram Ecodiesel. I forgot my trailer was attached to my truck and tried to back in my driveway, I jackknifed it and ruined the right rear quarter panel. It was cheaper to get a new bed than have it repaired ‍♂️. I was...

    2024 Electric Ram

    I’ll keep my Ecodiesel until a viable electric Ram is available. I fill up once a week. I manage my driving well. No wasted trips. I will definitely switch because I won’t buy a gas motor truck again. The low end torque of a diesel can’t be beat. I am not a tree hugging or trying to save the...

    2024 Electric Ram

    In the 3/4 ton segment, regular cab trucks are more common. I don’t need all that payload capacity. 98% of the time I am by myself. If they made a 1/2 ton 4 door with an 8’ bed I would consider it but Dodge/Ram stopped building them in 2008. The last iteration of that combo they had 8 lug...

    2024 Electric Ram

    I see Ram has announced the production electric Ram for 2024. Only problem for me is it won’t be geared towards the people who need their truck for work. A 6’ bed is useless to me. I know a 4 door Ram sells better than a 2 door but come on…
