Hi
I am brand new to this forum and new to this Ram truck - I did search the forum before deciding to post and did not see an equivalent situation or solution so hoping the forum can help solve this.
The 130 radio (Part no P05091228AC, S/N T22QN...) that came with the truck as purchased (used) does not work. AM/FM not at all and satellite promo station will play, then cut out after a few seconds and repeat that cycle.
I have checked the 2 fuses and the accy relay - all test good.
I did try a new radio from amazon (chinese) but it was too tall by a fraction of an inch to fit and I am not interested (yet) in cutting the dash.
I found a working (per seller, who upgraded) radio on FB Marketplace that came from a 2014 jeep wrangler (Part No P05091198AC, S/N T19QN....) and I HAVE the security code (and I confirmed it with a dealer by providing VIN and radio s/n).
I plugged in the Jeep radio and was prompted for the security code. I entered the code and it displayed incorrect code. I tried a couple more times and now it is "stuck" with display in pic (picture looks pixelated but display is 100% - must be camera refresh rate?).
The local chrysler dealer told me impossible to make it work - claimed OEM radio will only work in car it left factory in. We all know that is nonsense and I realize it likely is cheaper and more effective to try aftermarket radio,
however, I would at least like to see if I can solve with this jeep radio - at the very least to test that my old radio is bad and it is not wiring /voltage or other problem leading up to the radio.
Any ideas to solve this would be very appreciated. Thank you CH
update 2: have now also tried the radio security code for my Ram truck in addition to the Jeep replacement radio security code - both come back as incorrect
