    New UConnect 5 12" Install - Backup Camera Problems

    My truck is a 2019, screen/module is from a 2023. I had the same issues as many in these forums, but was advised to change my VehConfig 1: model year back to 2019 from 2023 by another forum member. Didn’t fix my ability to zoom in on the trailer hitch, but solved my back up lines issue which...

    Carli 2.0 commuter system

    Honestly I haven’t gotten around to messing with it, have just been too busy. I am actually hoping to have it in the shop in the coming weeks to try and adjust the preload. Shop visually believes it shouldn’t be an issue but won’t know for sure until they try. My understanding is they have to...

    Upgrade 2019 RAM 1500 Infotainment to Uconnect 5

    Nope. Download the current software to a thumb drive without unzipping the file. Put your truck in run mode and plug in the thumb drive to one of your USB ports. It should download and install automatically, usually only takes a few minutes.

    Upgrade 2019 RAM 1500 Infotainment to Uconnect 5

    I keep a thumb drive with the current software in my truck. Everytime this happens to me, about every 3-6 months, I plug in the thumb drive and “reinstall” the same software I’m already using and it goes away. I know it sounds like an unnecessary process but it solves the issue you’re...

    New UConnect 5 12" Install - Backup Camera Problems

    Change the year to 2019, the year your truck was manufactured.

    HOW TO: Add Digital Rearview Mirror

    Thanks. And to clarify, I meant the mirror designed to work with FCW/ACC. Mirror with 1 Video Input Channel, with FCW or ACC - 68448641AB Not sure if that changes anything or not.

    HOW TO: Add Digital Rearview Mirror

    Been a while, but still looking to do this. If I were to add a mirror with the FCW/ACC (my truck does not have these features) would I be able to purchase the correct shrouds to fit the mirror so that everything is covered? And if so would you see this causing any potential issues? Just...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Did you need the hardwire kit since you ended up using the adapter to steal power from the existing mirror?

    Awesome thanks 🤙🏼

    Front Camera Install (Link below)

    I think if you strap it to your existing mirror you’re good to go, at least that’s what I was trying to clarify. I know removing it and using one of the other options or if you tried to upgrade to the factory OEM DRVM you lose auto side dimming mirrors, auto high beams, etc. which is what I’m...

    Front Camera Install (Link below)

    I was literally about to purchase one of these today, but had some concerns about strapping it to the existing mirror (don’t want to lose side dimming mirrors, auto high beams, etc). How did you end up mounting it, and did you have any issues?

    New UConnect 5 12" Install - Backup Camera Problems

    Alfaobd or JScan. VehConfig 1: Model Year This corrected the backup camera lines. I still haven’t figured out how to fix the zoom for the hitch camera, but I get by well enough without it.

    HOW TO: Add Digital Rearview Mirror

    Thanks! Curious if you maintained these features after the swap with this adapter, as they have been traditionally lost when completing this upgrade?

    HOW TO: Add Digital Rearview Mirror

    Any pictures of the bracket you made? I’ve been contemplating doing the same.
