Thanks a lot man im on it now the website does suck tho man
I'm not 100% sure but I don't see why not. Call the guys over at infotainment, they will give you the answer for sure and probably try to take all your money haha.
Alright, will give it a try. If its possible I can do it. Fairly techy here, just didn't want to go in over my head and try something that hasn't been done so I was hoping I could at least get a thumbs up from the pros here.
Yes, many have gone from 5 to 12. If your current 5” radio is not capable at all of having SiriusXM, you will need a short coax fakra cable. In order for the climate controls on the 12” to work somewhat correctly, you will need to swap out your current solar sensor, and add the cabin temp sensor, which might need a custom harness built for it depending if the connector for it is present.
don't have any interest in siruis so i'm not even sure if it's capable or not. you can make that harness right?
I can make the adapter harness for the screen, and the cabin temp sensor harness if needed. If your current radio has a coax cable with a blue connector plugged into the back of it instead of a mustard connector, then you will need one of these- https://www.amazon.com/StickyDeal-V...+to+female+fakra+1+foot&qid=1616611574&sr=8-3
I asked the same question but didn't get a response back. I'd love to know what the latest modules are since I was told they're the ones that going to get the nice big android update and the first gens won't for some reason?
I have one
I currently have one i am willing to get rid of. I did the upgrade from the 5in to 12in and thought that the 68317978AL part was faulty. The dealership where i ordered it from would not accept returns due to covid so i ordered another from a different dealership. The issue i was having was there was no sound coming from my speakers when i plug in the new radio, 68317978AL. Everything else worked. The fix was to add resistors to my speakers as i added aftermarket speakers and amplifiers and its a fail safe mode that crystler radios do. Had i known this earlier i could have just done this before buying a second radio module. Either way its brand new and i would like to sell it. $700 plus shipping.
Found the fix if anyone else has this issue. Before making the swap i had upgraded my audio with aftermarket speakers, amplifiers and subwoofers. The fix is to add resistors to the speaker leads before the amplifiers to trick the radio into thinking the factory speakers are still attached (puts a certian load on the radio)(its a Chrysler failsafe mode). The resistors needed are 47 ohm 5 w and can be purchased from Amazon for around $5.
You need to read this thread more thoroughly. It will need a software configuration using alfaobd. Getting the module right now is difficult. Bock ordered. Someone here is selling one.
OK Thank you and will do. Good info and will do some more digging. Appreciate it!
I have a module for sale
XM Guardian still working great. Couldn’t be happier with the upgrade.
