I recently purchased a 2016 1500 ED Limited. Has the 8.4 ra4 Nav deck.

I am trying to add the NavTraffic via XM and they are saying it is not compatible. My truck is originally from Canada (I am in US). Do the CDN trucks not have Travel Link features? (I know I don't have UConnect 3G)

Any way to add now in US?

Thanks

You can use AlfaOBD to make sure it's enabled/available in the BCM configuration.
** AlfaOBD
(for activating factory features yourself. See docs linked in OP)

Otherwise it may very well be a USA Ra4 radio feature only. You can always swap out the radio for a USA Ra4. Valid PNs here ...

Thanks! I just ordered the OBD Link MX tool; Alfa will be next once it arrives.

Read the OP, reference it, and make sure you set up logging and upload your config to Google drive before you start making changes & don't go tinkering around without confirmation in the thread that something works out you may end up in a bad situation. Not trying to scare you, just be careful, keep track of what to do and you should be fine.
