Sync is not retained with this system. There are ambient settings. The back up camera does work. It should be showcased later in the video. Let me know if you have any other questions. I definitely recommend it!
Well I hope this review gave you some good information! I love this radio. Definitely makes me feel like I'm in a "newer" or "better" trim model, even though this truck is only a 2021. If you decide to get it, use that coupon code ! Thanks for the support!
Thank you! The kit comes with HDMI cables that connect to the screen. I believe it would be possible but I’m not positive. An undercarriage camera would be awesome.
You can add cameras. The radio will come with a front, rear and 1 side input. We also have an optional multi cam interface. we demo under carriage cameras on our Jeep in this video ua-cam.com/video/gTtj7bMM1nc/v-deo.htmlsi=Lj91o0nxTZiZ7Va_
👍Inclusion of that radio in the "old" 2023 Ranger platform, makes interior better than 2024 Ranger. Ford engineers see this video, they will be hating on someone.
@@Fernando-t8g I don’t have any experience with the new generation Ranger radio but I assume it works great. This is a great fix for someone who has the previous generation and wants new technology.
There is a link in the description! The discount code is “Cactus”. It will give you 10% off! You will need trim removal tools (cheap on Amazon) and a socket wrench kit. I believe the socket required is between 8-10mm. Hope this helped! Let me know if you need anything else.
Yes you can! If you don’t want to use Apple car play or android auto, it has its own Bluetooth system. The kit comes with a microphone that I discussed later in the video. Hope this helped!
Hello! I had the same issue. This is how you fix it. Go to settings - Click Car Model/AC - Press Ford, F150 HI, other - Then Press “Protocol” and select “Changyuantong with Xinpu”. The system will then reboot. This should make the climate controls work. I talk about this in the video at 13:00. Let me know if this helped!
Sir when you fix air conditioning plus then fans start automatically or not ? Beautiful my Star automatically which is indicated that wires of China is different
It is pretty expensive. The OEM radio works great. The main selling point in my opinion is that it looks better and has a multitude of options (more cameras, watch videos, etc.). I personally do not like the body style of the new Rangers. However, I do love their infotainment setup. If you're someone who plans on keeping their Ranger for awhile like me, I think it's worth it.
I need one for my 19 ranger looks sick
I've been loving it. Still going strong!
What about the settings for sync? Like ambient settings or backup camera settings etc.
I’ve been looking at purchasing a system like this for my Ranger. This might be it.

Driver side air stuck on last setting which I set on old system other side is good
I replied with the solution to one of your other comments.
Yoo. Was just looking at any upgrade to my sync3 radio on my 2022 xlt ranger.

I have OZ tune on my Ranger . Since it’s not a canbus device and a file tuner . Will that matter? I
I am not sure. I'd guess you would be okay, but no promises!
Nice review, ive been considering this. What about adding a front camera, i think this has something for that too no? Would be nice for off-road

Would’ve been nice to know it was a gen 6 not a gen 5
I stated that it was the 6th Gen in the description. Also, the link to the product takes you to the 6th Gen listing on the website.

Thank you! I agree on that. This radio really made my Ranger feel up-to-date compared to the new generation. Really enjoying it 👍
Lol no. The 24 is still way better.

I want one of these, where can I go to get one and what all do I need for the install. Also what code do you prefer me to use? TIA

What about Sirius XM and Cellular Hotspot?
I have used the cellular hotspot, works great. I believe it has Sirius XM, but I don’t use that service.
Can you connect to Bluetooth on your phone for calls and music?
Yes you can! If you don’t want to use Apple car play or android auto, it has its own Bluetooth system.
The kit comes with a microphone that I discussed later in the video. Hope this helped!
I wonder if they make it for my ram2500
They do have radios for Rams. Check their website to be sure. I’m seeing that they have them for 2019+ models.
do your usb plugs still function?
Yes they do! They just charge your device now since CarPlay and Android Auto is wireless with the new system.
Sir in am also fixing same screen in ranger limited but my one side climate change not working other side is good

@@OverlandingCactus ok sir I try it now think I did but I try again .
Sir when you fix air conditioning plus then fans start automatically or not ? Beautiful my Star automatically which is indicated that wires of China is different
No sir nothing help 😭
@@SimranjeetSingh-o6x My fan automatically turns on when the truck turns on. If the A/C is on, I just press if off.
$1600 is crazy

@@OverlandingCactusI feel the same way as you do!
Super
Thank you!
Looks laggy/stuttery when you’re using Apple car play ..
Compared to other vehicles I've driven with wireless car play, it's much better. I don't think it'll ever be just as fast as wired car play though.
1600 usd?!! So expensive
Yes it most definitely is! I tried to go in with as much detail as possible so people could make an educated decision before dropping that much money.
@OverlandingCactus too bad it's not right hand wheel.
