2018 4C UAS Radio Screen Off Center
This doesn't seem to work on the 2018 8.4 unit I have. There is no button labeled menu on the screen to hold.- Gwerner74

2018 4C UAS Radio Screen Off Center
The 2018 8.4 I installed in my 2015 a couple months ago has the same issue, display is off center towards the drivers side and also kicked a little lower than it should be. Doesn’t impact my access to any of the controls but it is annoying to look at.- Gwerner74

T style radio backup cam hook up
The microphone plugs into the female 3.5mm jack on the RCA Audio Output harness (harness 7). The blue connector is for the GPS antenna.- Gwerner74

Did your radio not include one? It’s listed in the parts list for that radio.- Gwerner74

8.4 uconnect
You installing a T-Style radio? I believe that connector is the SiriusXM antenna which typically doesn’t connect to the T-Styles.- Gwerner74

T style radio backup cam hook up
I just looked up that radio and it's identical to the Linkswell unit as far as the harnesses. On the power harness, labeled 10 in the attached pic, there should be a yellow male RCA labeled Factory Camera or something like that. That is the breakout from the factory wiring for the backup camera...- Gwerner74

T style radio backup cam hook up
The Linkswell T-Style that I had installed in my truck had a harness that connected to the factory wiring that provided the RCA connections to connect to the radio. What brand T-Style radio are you using? Sounds like a harness might be missing.- Gwerner74

JBL GTO 6x9 front and back speaker upgrade. Thoughts?
I don't know about the Harman Karden 8.4 units but I can tell you the Pioneer units from 2018 are surpringly clean with no distortion up to max volume. I just verified mine using both an oscilloscope and the Steve Meade Designs distortion detector.- Gwerner74

Inop speakers. Diag help?
In my opinion, checking the speaker loads at the harness that connects to the radio is the easiest place to access them. The pins for each are below for reference. Should be ~2.7 ohms on the front channels and ~4 ohms on the rears.- Gwerner74

Inop speakers. Diag help?
The door and dash speakers are in parallel. If he can get to the radio harness and ohm out the speaker outputs he should be seeing 2.7 ohms on the front channels and 4 ohms on the rear.- Gwerner74

JBL GTO 6x9 front and back speaker upgrade. Thoughts?
It's the depth that's preventing them from fitting. EDIT: Looks like I misspoke, there are multiple 6x9s on Crutchfield's site that fit.- Gwerner74

What did you do with your 4th Gen this week?
The head unit itself was a direct plug and play, no special programming needed. You will need to upgrade the USB Media Hub in your armrest because the one in our trucks aren't compatible with the CarPlay units. I had a Linkswell Gen 4 T-Style in my truck for a couple years, it started acting...- Gwerner74

Upgraded the original 8.4 head unit in my 2015 2500 to a CarPlay unit out of a 2018 RAM.- Gwerner74
