* 14-18 ram 1500's have a variable displacement compressor (typ. associated with the 7 speed fan)
>> 14-17's w/RAx = 68268186Ax HVAC module
>> 18/19's w/UAx = 68366552AA HVAC module

* 13-18 ram 2500/3500's (& 13 Ram1500) have a fixed displacement compressor (typ. associated with the 4 speed fan)
>> 14-17's w/RAx = 68105017Ax HVAC module (ie RA4 Radio)
>> 18/19's w/UAx = 68366553AA HVAC module (ie UAQ Radio)

---------------------

Price jumped on the 68268186Ax Module about 6-8 mos ago from $145 new. Some of the 14+ 1500 8.4 upgrade folks have been successful using the 2018 module


M² Mods.

Would it be necessary to replace the HVAC module if we upgraded to a UAQ? My defroster will come on by itself (climate control is OFF), so I was thinking this may be a reason why.

Certainly could be it, or bad bezel button

For what it's worth with oem parts if a unusual amount seem to be selling they will up the price. I'am quessing to maintain supply and or to discourage option /trim upgrades.i've seen it a lot on grilles and on some parts you need a vin or they won't sell it.chevy did this wIth 4th gen camaro ss hoods.
