Can phone navigation display on non-nav radio screen?

[Docwagon1776]

2022 1500 rental. No manual to consult. Have phone connected for music and calls. Won't display Google maps. I assume base radio. Tried bluetooth and wired. Any ideas?

Unless it has Android Auto or Apple car play I don't think you can.

I use android auto it works great.

Is it the 8.4? If so it has AA and ACP. 4th gen is wired, 5th gen is wired or wireless.

Fourth Gen. is wired? I can view my phone map/routing on my 8.4 non Nav activated screen? I did not think this was possible. Please tell me more.

On my last truck (2019 Classic), the one I just traded in a couple of weeks ago AA was only wired. It was an older version, Uconnect 4c. The new version Uconnect 5 on my '22 5th gen supports wireless. Maybe the 4th gens are now coming with the newer Uconnect?

Unless the head unit has Android Auto or Apple CarPlay you won't be able to display Google maps.

If it is an 8.4 or larger screen if you plug your phone into one of the USB ports it should add an Android Auto or Apple Carplay icon to the screen from which you can open a NAV app installed on your phone.

*2018+ 4th Gen 8.4 non NAV radios have Android Auto and Apple Carplay but can only be used natively with a USB connection to your phone.

I don't know guys. I will give it a try but I think that in my 2017 Laramie I cannot get the navigation from my phone to show on my 8.4 display. My year does not have ACP or AA. Therefore the only possible way would be a hard connection through a USB port. I believe that my in dash USB charges only. I can play music from a USB memory stick through the USB port inside the console. If I can plug my phone into the console USB port and display phone navigation on the dash display I would be elated. However, I don't think it is going to happen. BUT, I certainly will try.

CP and AA is not available on 2017. You can swap to an 2018 or newer radio to get them.

YES.
OP, what post #8/9 said. also, if U are using an I Phone, U have to have SIRI working to get maps to work once you plug USB cord into USB outlet, The 2 under the dash/console, NOT in the center console. (What U have to have on for Android, dunno, got an I phone, LMAO).

Your profile says you have a 2017. Unless you upgraded to a 2018 or newer 8.4, your radio does not support Android Auto or Apple Carplay. You need one of these to transfer your phone's map to the radio screen , which then works through the radio touchscreen.

Yep! Turkeybird and I mustve posted near the sane time and I hadn't refreshed. Was so disappointed I couldn't bring myself to acknowledge my 2017 shame lol.

Update: works fine, just have to use the USB inside the center console lid. The one on the dash is charge only, apparently.

I have 2 USB inside the center console and both are media usbs..I have a 3rd usb option on my radio but I can't find that USB anywhere in the truck lol ...

Truck MUST have Android Auto or Apple Car Play to display phone nav on radio screen.

I think that you're going to find it on the back of the centre console, rear passenger access.

My grandson used to drive me nuts by plugging his phone in there and it would start android auto on me...
