    Is there a source for radio update files?

    I have an 8.4" UC5 radio I'd like to update, I can not do that with over the air updates. Is there a source for update files? Has anyone been saving them?

    2020 Tradesman and Uconnect 5 8.4 media hub issue

    I was told by another vendor that a UC5 8.4" radio update file loaded onto a USB stick will fix this issue, I have not found a source for an update file yet.

    Uconnect 8.4 question

    I had a basic 5" radio in my 2020 Tradesman, bought an 8.4" UC5 radio from a salvage yard and the adapter cables from eBay. You need to make sure you get a radio with the appropriate A/C controls, single zone vs dual. The only issue I had/have is the USB hub charges phones but does not recognize...

    2021 Ram 1500 Bighorn Media Hub Replacement

    Great write up, thanks! I swapped out my hub quickly using your post. I still have the same problem, I don't have a data connection just charging capability but at least it was an easy task thanks to your guide.

    Tradesman 5" to non nav 8.4

    I made the same swap last year, Tradesman, 5" to non-nav 8.4". I've grown used to Waze and my streaming music apps so I immediately got to work on this. I also did a speedometer swap to a larger OEM LCD screen version, because why not. Speedo was super cheap, like $40 from a salvage yard. I...

    It can, I ended up using the EX to make my changes. Once I did it in km everything went through just fine. Oddly my range on the new speedometer went up to 1999 miles of range once the mileage was finally updated though. I switched from mpg to kilometers/litres and back again in the radio...

    Upgraded 5" Screen U-Connect 3 to 8.4" U-Connect 5 Have A Problem

    I'd like to know if you found a solution for this. I've been looking at swapping out for a steering wheel with volume controls but don't want to waste my time and money if it's not going to work.

    Thanks, this worked. Hopefully the hours will be able to be changed in the future, I've noted those to fix it if so. The OBDLink EX is on the officially supported list so I thought it would be better to have that?

    Hello all, My 2020 Tradesman is pretty basic for options so I upgraded my radio from the 5" to the 8.4" Uconnect 5 recently. This week I put in a 7" digital cluster from a wrecked 2020 1500, screen is great and simple install but obviously the mileage isn't correct. Trying to input the correct...

    2020 Tradesman and Uconnect 5 8.4 media hub issue

    I have a 2020 Tradesman that had the "UCONNECT 3 WITH 5" DISPLAY" "5.0" TOUCHSCREEN DISPLAY". I bought a salvage Uconnect 5 8.4" and the required adapter cables. The only things not working are the compass and the media hub, the USB's on the media hub charge my phone but thumb drives with music...
