Upgraded 5" Screen U-Connect 3 to 8.4" U-Connect 5 Have A Problem

[mike7050]

I have a 2021 Ram 2500 Big Horn that came with a 5" I believe U-Connect 3, and I upgraded to a U-Connect 5 8.4" screen with an infotainment adapter harness. Everything works great except for the VR (voice recognition) and the answer/ hangup buttons on the steering wheel. I also added a steering wheel with radio buttons on the back, and they don't work either. An OBD2 scanner shows the body control module recognizes when I push them, but the radio doesn't recognize the buttons being pushed at all. I am wondering if I need some kind of programming to make the buttons work. If anyone has any knowledge on this I would greatly appreciate your help... TIA!

My 2022 truck came with Uconnect 5 8.4 non nav and the VR/Answer/Hang up only works when connected to your phone through the radio. On my case since I use an iphone when you press VR siri will come on. Without a phone the VR does nothing.
