8.4" to 12.1" screen replacement

[Phi1Wh0]

What’s the secret to sourcing these parts....specifically that module?!? Been looking on lkq and car-parts but nothing ever shows available for me. After reading through this thread, I feel like I’m ready....just need the parts!!!LOL

I have a module that I'm offering for sale

I have a 2020 1500 Laramie with Sirius/apple play/Android auto

For those who did a non nav upgrade to a 12" nav upgrade did you need to purchase a aftermarket GPS antenna?

As long as the original radio has Sirius in it, the nav will share that antenna with sirius. So you do not need a separate nav antenna in this case

Also curious. Did you happen to have guardian before the transplant, then have guardian transferred over, THEN the update came?

 

[Phi1Wh0]

My Guardian expired and a few hours after I transferred my account and then renewed Guardian I got the update.

Are you saying this transplant is hooked to your gaurdian?

No way of knowing. But I find it strange that a few hours after I took the special offer that I received the update

Okay so I got everything working from non-nav to 12" ( all knobs and buttons on the screen and the screen starts up every time ) using the Windows version of AlfaOBD.

If you had the 8.4 Nav unit to start you may only need to disable Cabin NET-ICS Integrated Center Stack set as Not enabled.


1. Start by connecting to the Body Computer like below. Click connect.

2. Once connected click the Advanced mode button and under modification: (RU) PACIFICA : MY2017 PowerNet.

3. Switch to Active Diagnostics tab Car Configuration then Cabin Net-DCSD Display Screen Module set as Enabled.

4. Last select Cabin NET-ICS Integrated Center Stack set as Not enabled. Verify all setting took and pull the radio fuse or unhook the battery to reset the radio let it boot up. Shut the truck off and let it sit 30 mins or so and the radio should pull the setting from your trucks BCM.

This is dated 12/19. Anyone know if the Android version is capable of fixing the AC and radio knob issues?

Make sure you get the module that is correct for the screen you are upgrading to

8.4 no nav is one piece
8.4 Nav is two pieces
12.1 two pieces

TTHe module for the 8.4 nav and 12.1 is different

Has anyone tried 8.4 nav radio jeep on 8.4 non nav ram. because both are one piece and the software looks the same

Are they cheaper? Perhaps easier to find?

 

[Ochoa1801]

Yes and yes

If you’re referring to a UAQ radio, haven’t tried it, but don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Not sure how well it will mount, but should be close.

Hi. I would be willing but I am still in need of the last part module # 68317978AI Multi Media brain for the 12” screen. Soon as I get that last brain piece and get it up and working .... mines will be up for sale or heck trade it for this brain piece I need.

Do you sold it

So I have a 2018 Laramie Navi 8.4” screen and want the 12.1 I need the screen and module and repin the back plus the code? Read them thread skipped a few pages.. can you tell me where you got the transplant and is (everything) working like the knob controll like the earlier side was? Please help thanks I’m advance.

 

[Jokerstats]

Finally got my screen installed
Repining the harness wasn't so bad.. easy install overall... just waiting on AlfaOBD to send me the activation code to program the BCM...

Please tell me what all I need. I’m thinking the screen of course. Did you repin the wires? AlfObd? Is that the site of the transplant? Sorry I get confused alil East in my age but I’m wanting to do this. Please help if possible

Hi,
I hope someone can help me. I have a 2019 ram 1500 with non-nav 8.4" radio. I purchased the 12" screen and module (68317978AI), LVDS cable, re-wired the pins correctly (even made an adapter using parts from Digikey), Obdlink MX+ and have AlfaODB for Android and Windows. I did the swap, Disabled "ICS integrated center stack" and Enabled "Cabin Net DCSD display screen module" in AlfaODB, removed the radio fuse, turned off the truck for 30 mins (several times) but the screen does not turn on. The A/C buttons and hazards work fine but the radio and screen do not work. I have tried using using the Android and Windows version's of AlfaODB (tried using several different Control Unit types, e.g. Pacifica 2017, DT MY2013-2017 Power Net, DT MY2019 PowerNet), tried a second LVDS cable, and tried re-pining the 8 pin plug several times but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
