I have only seen those on 2500+. Do they fit on a 1500? I would think not since they are the old body style, but would love to be proven wrong.
I’m stumped as to why the UAM 8.4” non nav doesn’t seem to accept that setting change on the DT’s. Last night I had another member enable CHMSL camera on his 2020 HD Ram with the exact same radio, and it showed up after a few key cycles- no camera attached, just enabling the setting. That UAM radio is the red headed stepchild of the 8.4’s, and made by a different manufacturer than all the other 8.4’s. The only thing I can think of is that radio is not only considering the bit changes for the CHMSL camera, but also the vehicle line. Since the HDs are DJ, and they are optioned with the CHMSL camera, it must be ignoring the DT vehicle line message and not accepting the bits broadcast from the BCM.
Correct- exact same UAM 8.4” non-Navi radio on the heavy duty 2020 Ram brought up the cargo cam soft key after enabling CHMSL camera with AlfaOBD.
U0168 is the loss of communication associated with removing the security gateway module.
I thought as much. But the first tome I went and did the Tazer, it did not show up. Strange.
Is the Alfa setting done through the Pacifica selection or it doesn’t matter and just takes a while to show up?Figured I’d chime in here, since this has been done for years on the 4th gens, and will be the same on the 5th gens. All you need to do is take a female RCA pigtail-
Crimp these terminals onto the red and black wires- https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity/638551-2?qs=/ha2pyFadui2KO4i8tuEMRmwe3qqDO4dcOxrTo7CGec4q0rAKYyNkA==&tetid=MuZSUWoENz
Insert the red wire into pin 24 on the big radio connector, and insert the black wire into pin 25.
Then use AlfaOBD and set VehConfig 1 CHMSL camera to YES. You’ll now have the cargo cam soft key active on the radio controls screen, and you can plug any aftermarket camera into the pigtail on the radio. For mounting, either come up with a clever solution, or buy the “RAM” grille nameplate that houses the front camera for the surround view equipped trucks. Just choose a camera that can be fabricated into the front camera mount. Supply the camera with fused ignition power, and ground, and you’re done.
Has anyone successfully done this? Upgrade from non nav to 12” with nav, enabled chmsl in Alfa and had the cargo cam button appear? Mine will not appear on the 12”...
Hey what OBD adapter are you using? And what bypass? I just picked up the obd mx + for a few reason. But, things I’m leaning. Our radios suck. But the body computer is picky. Anyways, going to work on it tomorrow.
There won’t be any wires present in positions 21/22. Pry the red face of the connector off, insert the wires, the put the red terminal lock back on.
