Ram radio plug.jpgDoes anyone know what function this plugs serves into the back of the radio? I'm trying to make an after market radio work and can't get the radio to recognize the OEM USB plugs, amont other things.

Very unclear photo, but it looks like the antenna cable from what I can make out.

Looks to be for radio antenna.
You won’t be able to utilize the factory plugs when you install aftermarket head unit without some sort of adapter.
Most of use Bluetooth or run the usb cable from one head unit out through change tray or similar location.

SXM/GPS antenna is the mustard FAKRA pictured. USB is the gray mini USB plug on the back of the radio but it may not work on an aftermarket radio without modification.

I just discovered this mustard Fakra in my body harness; passenger kick panel area. I've searched, and 99% sure there's no matching connector in the IP harness. What's it for.
