Upfitter Switches

Ok, since I was impatient, i bought AlphaOBD yesterday. ha!

Went in to Alpha and Car Configuration under the BCM and set:
  • CBC Features: Configuration Aux Switches PTO-SIX SWITCHES
  • LIN & Misc: ASBM Present - YES
  • CustSetMenu 1: Auxiliary Switches CSM Present - Switch 3-6 Option

All switches still work, but NO Aux switch options in setting on the radio. (validated each config and also restarted both the BCM and the radio)
According to the uConnect site, I have the latest version (but hard to check there only using the VIN). I'll go back and set it to 1-4 options again in the CSM option and see if they show up for only 1-4.

Anyone else run into this issue yet? I may be an odd case with a 23 BCM and a 19 Truck.

It’s your radio software if your BCM configs are set and you reboot everything 3 times. That uconnect site is no good. It always says up to date but it’s not. The way i updated was someone had posted the links to download software from google drive and i downloaded it and flashed it on my uc4. I had same issue with uc5. The menu didn’t show up until i was updated to a certain version.

Given the switches work from manual changes through programmer the bcm and switches are communicating. Its the radio thats not recognizing it.
When i had uc4 i was missing performance pages and stuff initially until i updated to version UAX PR 39.7, PR 39.9, PR 40.1

My truck is early build possibly late 2018 so it got nothing at all from all its OTA updates.

I only updated to first one because the later ones that came out used to disable features that we manually enabled as it checked with uconnect to see what configs the BCM SHOULD HAVE vs. WHAT IT HAS.

My radio is the 12 inch nav version. I do know some people with non nav radios couldn’t get them because of some radio incompatibility. If you have a nav radio you’re in luck. Check your current radio software version and see if it matches any of the ones i posted.

Yep, looks like my 8.4 NAV UC4 is at 22.32.10. WTF, that's old AS F.

You can try searching in forums for google drive links. Thats how i had found mine and got it updated. I have the files for the 3 versions i mentioned.

[mention]Jimmy07 [/mention] might have all the versions in between. From what i heard its sequential updates so we can’t jump versions.
 
Ugh, so I need to find the 34.2 version first, then 39.7 or higher. I haven't found any good links yet, still searching for the 8.4 screen versions.

Nope, I need a whole slew of versions... I can't find anything for the 8.4 screens.
