Hi guys I have a 2010 dodge ram. The radio I have currently is the uconnect that came with it. It has Bluetooth but I can only take calls on it. I was wondering how I could stream music Bluetooth on it.

What kind of device are you connecting? Sometimes you have to explicitly turn on audio streaming after pairing.

My 2010 wouldn't stream either - from what I could determine, bluetooth audio streaming wasn't supported until 2011. I picked up a uConnect module out of a 2011 on ebay, essentially plug and play. The iPod connection in the upper glove box no longer worked, but the seller included the usb connection, which does work fine.

I actually should have asked what radio do you have now? Down in lower right corner by the AUX port is a three digit code. I assumed it is an RES, non-touch screen. If so, the uConnect module is bolted to the passenger side lower dash panel, right next to the lower glove box. Remove the glove box door and it's be right there. If it is an RER touch screen with NAV, the module is internal to the radio, all other touch screens use the external module.

My apologies for leading you astray, the RER has internal uConnect, and it does not support streaming audio. If you are so inclined, you can try finding an RHR, (newer version of the RER), it supports streaming, and is a straight swap.
