You would think that the aftermarket designs would incorporate the Uconnect factory Mic to connect. But it might be due to the Mygig systems being quite different from each other despite looking practically the same. Some use an external bluetooth module that runs to the mirror mic (RES, RBZ, RHB), and some use a mic that plugs directly to the factory radio (RER and RHR).
My 2012 minivan came with the 2nd best head -- the one without Garmin. I wish it had Garmin. But ideally, I'd like Apple/Android. However it seems Chrysler doesn't offer such an upgrade, is that correct? Would have to swap it out for a 3rd party device like Kenwood, Pioneer, JVC which comes with Apple Car Play/Android Auto, and (hopefully) works with the existing features like reverse camera.
Yes that is correct. Unfortunately there is not an OEM option that includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for the Grand Caravan. The only option for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto would be aftermarket.
The RHR730N factory navigation radio has built in bluetooth for voice commands/audio streaming and hands free calling. If you had hands free calling already you would need the jumper cable to use the current mic, If not you would need the mic for the RHR730N. The RHB Garmin based factory navigation radio would needs the hands free calling kit with the mic if you don't have that function already.

HI Todd, thanks for the question. The RHR is the best one the RHB is the next one dow. The RHb uses Garmin navigation, the RHR has a Navteq more logistical look for maps and is the premium radio In the line up the 3. come chat on our site, and we can perhaps offer code for savings
Hi is it possible to use a factory stereo in another car like a 2013 Dodge caravan Uconnect stereo it had steering wheel controller for volume and in the 2007 Dodge charger it does not have any steering wheel controller for volume they both are double din stereos. I did install the caravan stereo to the charger but the screen is black when I put power plug in the plug spot and the other two cables in the fitted spot and it had 3 more cables but the charger only had 3 cables coming from the car do you think that I would need a wire harness to install the caravan stereo to the charger or is it not possible to add a factory stereo?????????? Please help
Hi there, So it is possible, however the issue here is that both of those vehicles have conflicting canbus speed. The Dodge Caravan uses a high speed bus, while the Charger uses a low speed bus. This basically means that the vehicle's computer/BCM is unable to talk to the radio because the radio only communicates for what it was manufactured for. As for the connections, the only thing I can think that changed from 3 to 2, is the GPS/XM/AM/FM antenna. In 2007, the blue was GPS, and the yellow was XM. In 2010, the GPS and XM were combined into the yellow connector. So if you're referencing a blue antenna, you just need a multiplexer to combine them. If you're looking for a compatible radio for the Charger, we have these options available. If you'd like to inquire about compatible options we have available, please reach out to our Sales Team.
I have a 2013 GCV with the RES radio and i tried installing a known working RHR radio and it doesn’t turn on. Just the buttons light up for a few seconds and turns off. If i press the open close button the screen turns on and shows the splash screen and then turns off. Im i missing something?! Please help!
You can try our reprogramming service but if that part did not come from our facility it may be hard for us to diagnose without bench testing it. We can determine if this is the correct piece or if we need to swap this out for one of ours. infotainment.com/shop/services/remote-programming-service/programming-service-factory-oem-radio-bench-test-vin-programming-4/
Not with the Town & Country unfortunately. The best option would be to get a handsfree bluetooth kit, and use Uconnect's native smart phone integration to use CarPlay and Auto. www.infotainment.com/collections/factory-hands-free-bluetooth/products/uconnect-hands-free-kit-high
My rbz screen is cracked (so touch not working but audio from DVD is working)and my middle drop down is blank. I have a few questions...Is the middle screen being blank have to do with the dash screen (rbz) being cracked....and if I change the rbz screen like this video. Do I need to do any special resetting or programming. Or is it an easy swap like here. Thank you.
Please contact our sister site www.navrepair.com or email them at support@navrepair.com if they can help out more otherwise we can offer a direct replacement so you can just swap out the radio for the pre programmed VIN specific version.
The package will be pre programmed to work with all of your existing features, including heated seats. Unfortunately we do not have a solution for adding heated seats at this time. I invite you to fill out the following Product Interest List Form and we will notify you if and when the kit is developed and available. forms.zohopublic.com/infotainmentcom/form/ProductInterestListForm/formperma/m7R2exajUQkfs2WJO8mkDzUcYC2HIt5WrUWxFICnigs
If this was ordered through us and already has the Vin programming then you should see the a sticker in the box with the Anti-theft code. If this is not from us then it will need to be reprogrammed to the Vin to remove that code. We have a programmer service for $139.95 that will take care of this as long as you are able to send it in. It is the second option on this listing. infotainment.com/shop/services/remote-programming-service/programming-service-factory-oem-radio-bench-test-vin-programming-4/
What would be nice is a way to use the Uconnect mirror mics with a aftermarket head unit.
You would think that the aftermarket designs would incorporate the Uconnect factory Mic to connect. But it might be due to the Mygig systems being quite different from each other despite looking practically the same. Some use an external bluetooth module that runs to the mirror mic (RES, RBZ, RHB), and some use a mic that plugs directly to the factory radio (RER and RHR).

@@Infotainment_nav okay thanks!
Can I replace my REN head unit to RER with nav? Do I need to have gps antenna connector on my van?
Yes you can! You will need a GPS antenna too.
Did I understand that correctly? The 430N and 730N have native Bluetooth and do not require an additional Uconnect module?
The RHR730N factory navigation radio has built in bluetooth for voice commands/audio streaming and hands free calling. If you had hands free calling already you would need the jumper cable to use the current mic, If not you would need the mic for the RHR730N.

My 2012 town and Country has the 430 rbz. What would the best one to choose for adding navigation the 430n rhb or the 730n rhr?
HI Todd, thanks for the question. The RHR is the best one the RHB is the next one dow. The RHb uses Garmin navigation, the RHR has a Navteq more logistical look for maps and is the premium radio In the line up the 3. come chat on our site, and we can perhaps offer code for savings
