    Upgraded Radio

    Update: It’s working now. Being I got the new iPhone 15, they don’t use the old cable now. It’s a USB C and i ordered the USB to USB C port so I could plug it into the console using the cable that came with my phone. I was using 4 different cables with the USB to USB C thinking one of them have...

    That’s definitely my vin number. Not sure why or what website is telling you it’s invalid. I just entered it on the mopar website and it pulls up. I posted a picture of the radio sticker on my original post.

    The only thing I can think of replacing is the wiring harness but is there any way of knowing if my existing harness is the wrong one? Are there specific colored wires or number of wires on male adapters that plug into the USB hub? I’m about done throwing more money into this thing just for...

    My my wife just got new iPhones yesterday. I’ll try hers but I tried her old her phone last week as well with no luck. I don’t know anyone with an android or should I say close by me.

    Just FYI, I can only connect to my radio through Bluetooth. If I tune my Bluetooth off and plug my phone into the usb, my radio doesn’t connect to it.

    Should Bluetooth be on or off when plugged into USB port to get CarPlay?

    I don’t know how to enable it on my phone other than going to CarPlay and searching for my vehicle. I have the “enable projection” box checked on my uconnect.

    Update: So I just received the USB hub from the seller I purchased the radio from that he uses. Unfortunately, it didn’t work either. Also, when I search for vehicles in my CarPlay settings, my truck does not pull up.

    Ok great. I appreciate everyone’s help thus far. I truly hope it’s the hub or even harness. My heated steering wheel and seats never worked. I even bought the module and haven’t installed it yet. After installing this new radio, they work.

    The hub I have now appears to have the same design female connections as the one that’s being recommended. I guess I won’t know for sure until I get the right hub. Are you implying that even if my existing harness plugs into the new hub that it might not work?

    He was obviously mistaken for the old radio having CP. I won’t hold that against him. He offered to send me the usb hub he uses to test his radios for $100. He wouldn’t charge me if it didn’t work and I’d mail it back to him. He’s a pretty nice seller to be honest.

    I never bought a conversion harness. I used what was already there. I purchased the radio from eBay. The seller has been trying to help me out as well. He’s assured me that it has CP. We talked yesterday for over 30 minutes trying to figure it out. When I plug my phone into the usb port, it will...

    Originally this truck came with the small uconnect radio. It’s an SLT model. I think the original owner (youngster) stole or had someone steal a radio out of a 2015. I say stole because the mounting bracket was broken off lol. That was the radio that was in it when I bought it and it was an...

    I just got back from the dealership. They let me try out a new usb hub. No luck whatsoever. I have the right usb hub and it charges my phone with no problem. I was hoping maybe something was wrong with the signal part of it, if there is such a thing lol. Doing process of elimination right now...

    Ok guys, I’ve searched and searched and can’t seem to figure out my issue. I’m not looking for the aftermarket radio gods to help as I know what they’re going to say . Yesterday evening I installed the upgraded 8.4 with Nav/Carplay in my 2018 Ram 2500. My truck was already equipped with the...

    @gofishn; Thank you captain obvious. I’m well aware of the risks involved when buying used. Bought plenty that served me well. I’m actually fine with the radio that’s in there. Your obviously jumping to a conclusion that I’m upset or disappointed. Sorry to inform you but I’m not. Just wanted to...

    Checked out my build sheet. The 5.0” touchscreen was originally installed in this truck. If I measure diagonally corner to corner this radio measures 8”
