Probably a long shot...
Seen videos on how to disable OnStar, but not really anything how to disable Cellular UConnect/Sirius Guardian system in newer Ram's..
Guardian has expired for me, thus eliminating just about all features. Not sure if I still will obtain the vehicle diagnostic reports from time to time, but even then I wouldn't mind giving that up as it's nothing I don't already monitor on my own. I do use Sirius XM from time to time. Don't use any of the travel features, because I Car Play my iPhone.
If there is a radio fuse it'll be the whole unit that suffers, so assuming there's gonna have to be a head unit pull. I believe the shark fin on top vehicle is for Sirius XM radio, so that's irrelevant if I'm correct there.
Reason for removal is their TOS states they obtain, "Vehicle sensor data, diagnostic data, odometer readings, collision information, location information, information about when your ignition is turned on or off, speed, tire pressure data, performance data, information about accidents, driving history, etc" along with now being able to remote start and stop vehicles at will.
There is Engineering/Dealer menu on the touch screen that I haven't messed with yet, but apparently there is some radio options but the choices can't be changed it just shows the checkboxes. Also seen some projects over the years of bypass modules, but never seen one come to fruition.
Of course don't want to be getting any warning or error lights/codes if this was to be done...
Not looking for the whole big brother debate. If you have some insightful info please enlighten me; else just keep on scrolling. Thanks!
