Hi Y’all. First time poster and first time Ram owner.
Bought a 14 tradesman with the Uconnect 3.0 that has blue tooth and back up camera but no navigation. Truck is for my son and even though everything is excellent I’m having a problem with the radio.
The radio is rebooting every 2 minutes and 18ish seconds. I’ve searched on forum and google for the past 2 days and haven’t found exactly what to do the fix it other than getting a new unit or buying an after market radio. I’ve checked to make sure there wasn’t an update for the Uconnect but the site said it was up to date. Using VIN number.
All we want is to have a regular radio, hook up phone with blue tooth (to play music) and back up camera. I don’t need compass, navigation, or microphone to talk through phone. Or the buttons on the steering wheel to work.
Is there a way to fix this myself or will it need to go to a dealer? Anyway we can turn off Uconnect and just have regular radio?
How about if I buy a Uconnect 5.0 head unit, will it slide right in place of other radio and plug and play with already installed components (back up camera, etc)? Would we still have this problem with the 5.0?
If we go after market we would need to purchase and run cables for new back up camera correct? Which after market radio would work best?
Anyway we just want some consistent tunes. Lol
Thanks for the help and please advise what would be the best way to go.
