How to go back and forth in preset channels

[Mike S]

Would like to know how to navigate up and down preset channels. The center button on the steering wheel trigger moves to next pre-set channel, but how can you navigate back to previous pre-set channel? Up and down trigger buttons just navigate to next channel, not next preset. Does anyone know how to navigate both up and down preset channels?

on the back of the steering wheel, left hand side.

only up with the left steering wheel button. FCA did not include a down preset function from steering wheel controls.

I sometimes use the voice command feature to select the preset number.

Really? Down works for me...

Up and down work for channels, but only the center button works (up) for presets

Down works fine for me!

Do we have trucks that function differently? For you guys that say DOWN works for presets... please double check. Try setting two presets that have many channels in between.

The system in my Durango functions as the other guys are saying... the UP and DOWN buttons are simply for finding the next channel, whether it is stored as a preset or not. The CENTER button is the only one that works for presets... and it only goes the the next higher preset; not lower.

The center button on the left control will only operate the up preset selection on mine. It's pretty annoying that it only does one way

Only up for me with regard to navigating the presets...

Left center button only goes to the next UP preset channel for me too. I just usually hit the channel up button, then hit the center preset button again and it'll start back at the 1st preset. Just starting the sequence over again.

That's the missing piece right there. It's not as good as going up and down presets, but being able to get to preset #1 from anywhere is better than nothing I guess.

If you keep pressing the change preset button on the back of the steering wheel, it will cycle past each station preset until it reaches #12 and then it will go past #12 to land on #1 again.

Pressing the up button and then the preset button again doesn't always take you to preset #1, it depends on the frequency order of the stations you have set into each preset, so if it doesn't work for you, try pressing down and then the preset surfing button again.

I always thought they should have flipped the functions of the 2 buttons. Channel seek forward/back should be preset forward/back and the middle button should be just channel seek forward. The buttons were set up the same way in my 2015 Grand Cherokee.
