...if the radio itself is the same for each build... maybe I can move the connectors a bit so the system sends data for the 9 or 19 speaker systems. Then the DSR1 option would work... Are the actual radios completely different for each system? Seems like they would make it easy and use the same radio.
Different direction than you went
@WRH , but along the lines quoted above does anyone think it is possible that the 6 speaker w/ANC systems (std w Hemi) might just need to swap out the “Module-ANC” for the 9 or 19 speaker “Amplifier-radio” unit, then get a software reconfig to use the 9/19 speaker outputs? Then just add new speakers and BADABING?
Any Ram techs out there know how we might find out if the 6 speaker stereo system
with ANC (incl w hemi, see note below on non-ANC) uses the same “radio” module as the 9 or 19 speaker systems, making it potentially compatible with the 9 or 19 speaker “Amplifier-radio” modules?
@I Love Grits ’s diagrams
here and
here indicate the radio units connect the same at least, but the three amp modules all are
likely different:
- all systems
with ANC (6ANC/9/19) connect 8 lines from radio to XY331A
- 6ANC connects XY331A to “Module-ANC” then to 6 speakers
- 9 and 19 connect XY331A to “Amplifier-radio” then to 9/19 speakers
- all appear to connect XY440A to the 4 ANC microphones
Need to have actual “Radio” and “Amplifier-radio” part numbers for 6ANC, 9, and 19 systems to confirm the differences and order them though.
The “base 6 speaker stand alone” system
without ANC (6nonANC) appears to connect the radio directly to the speakers, without the XY331A connection... a different radio?
