I was able to get in touch and get a vin# from the person I bought the radio from on this forum. I went to Uconnect and yes it had a update for my radio. I downloaded it and will go install it at dealership in the morning. Hopefully this will solve there camera install issue,
Wow. That is above and beyond for most dealerships. Glad you got it working.Well an update. was able to get vin# to radio and got download to install. radio updated and no change. Dealer ended up pulling another radio out of another truck and go through and activate camera and it worked. They then took out the radio and put mine back in and went through the activation process and it worked. I know have a back up camera.
How can I find the code for my RA2 radio please? 2016 Ram 1500.
Hoping someone here can help even this is an old post. Ive purchased multiple RA2's for my 2013 Ram Express. After testing a couple I sold them, but they all appeared to download my trucks BCM setting/options rather quickly. Unfortunately the radio I kept for myself worked great for a day or two then the audio would cut out. I'd have to do a CANBUS reset and it would work again for a bit then the audio quit permanently.
I just recently purchased another RA2 from a 2015 Ram (68228668AD) and everything seems to work with this one EXCEPT its not downloading my trucks BCM options. The radio still thinks I have factory heated seats (which is a left over option showing from the old truck) AND it is not recognizing that the backup camera IS turned on in my BCM settings. Ive tried a CANBUS & a hard reset of the radio using ALFAOBD with no progress.
When checking "error codes" in the radio with ALFAOBD it says the radio has not been configured to the vehicle settings, but every other radio and every post I've seen online say this should happen automatically (albeit it may take a couple of days - which I am well passed). Is there anyway to force the radio to download the truck BCM settings?
Anyone have any other ideas?
Does anyone have the 5.0 Uconnect 5.2.20.1 FW/SW saved that they could send me in a file?
Hello Mpfrimm2. Kind of new here. I have a question and I hope it is not too lame.
I am looking between two ram 1500's. One (further away) has 3.92's/LSD-awesome. The other has an open/3.55. Both 2019's Classics, around 10k miles.
The 3.92/LSD one has a 3.0 w/o phone/bluetooth. The 3.55 one has a 3.0 with phone/bluetooth.
I will want a 5.0 w/phone & non-corded bluetooth so I can play tunes from my phone.
Can a 5.0/RA2 be made to play tunes via bluetooth from my phone? And, how much easier/more expensive is it to make a non-bluetooth 3.0 a 5.0, RA2, than a bluetooth 3.0?
I see on the website, there is something called a "C+HFM programmer" thing might be needed for a non-bluetooth 3.0-5.0 conversion (https://www.infotainment.com/products/uconnect-hands-free-kit-high?variant=321431811)
Thank you.

Correct...The one that already has the bt 3.0 should be a direct swap since it already has the mics and steering wheel buttons. The other one you will have to add the mic and steering wheel buttons. I did the reg 3.0 to 5.0 swap and it was super easy.
Hello Mike19950. Is the regular one the one w/o Bluetooth? I am glad to hear it was very easy.
Thank you.
I forgot to ask. Did you have to buy that "C+HFM Programmer" thing?
