I have a 2011 Ram with the RES radio with uconnect buttons.

From what I have found looking online, I need to purchase the 82211878 kit to get the uconnect working, however when I talked to my dealer, he said I needed the 82212159 kit.

Does anyone know the difference? I can't find a lot of info on the 2159 kit other than its $130 more than the 878 kit.


Also, I removed the Mopar Uconnect kit out of my 2008 Sebring when I turned the lease in, and it will not work in my 11 Ram. I have had the sales code added, but nothing happens when I hit the button. I guess they made a change in the last couple years.

 

Well whenever you hook up one of the modules it requires the dealer to starscan it into the vehicles canbus or whatever. All I know is they get you one way or the other.

 

My radio has already been activated for the uconnect hardware, I just need to figure out which one to buy.

 

FYI - I talked to a few ex-coworkers that still work at Chrysler, the one in the radio group confirmed that a 2011 Ram with an RES radio with uconnect buttons needs kit number 82212159.
