Turn iPhone Bluetooth On:First you want to make sure that Bluetooth is functioning on your iPhone. Click on the Settings icon from the iPhone desktop. From the settings screen click General to show the iPhone General Settings as displayed in the below image. Notice you can see if Bluetooth is on or off from this screen. General Settings screen you can click on Bluetooth to configure the Bluetooth settings. On the Bluetooth screen shown below click to the left of Off to turn Bluetooth On.
Begin Uconnect Setup:Now that Bluetooth is operational on the iPhone you can start the Uconnect process. Click the Uconnect button on the rear view mirror to begin. The voice from the Uconnect system will ask you to verbally select one of the options from the menu. Once Uconnect asks for your input say "Setup" to begin the process of syncing the iPhone.
Start Phone Pairing:Once you say setup in the above step the Uconnect system will list numerous options available from the setup menu. One of these options is "Phone Pairing" so when the Uconnect system asks for the choices from the setup menu say "Phone Pairing".
Pair a Phone:In the Phone Pairing menu you can modify current entries or begin pairing a new phone. After Uconnect lists all of the choices you should say "Pair a Phone" to begin the process of pairing the iPhone.
Uconnect Pin Code:The first step in pairing a phone is setting the Bluetooth Pin Code that authorizes that phone to pair with the Uconnect system. When asked for the Pin Code say any four digit combination such as "1 - 2 - 3 - 4". Uconnect will repeat back the Pin Code so you can verify it has recorded properly.
Connect iPhone To Uconnect:After you have set the Pin Code for the Uconnect system you need to view the iPhone's Bluetooth Settings screen which you can get to following the steps in Step 1 above. Before the Uconnect system shows up in Bluetooth the Bluetooth Settings screen will look similar to the below where you may have other Bluetooth devices showing or not.After a couple seconds the Uconnect system will display as "Hands Free" as shown in the below image. Notice it states that it is not yet paired,,,,,
Click on the Hands Free device showing in the Bluetooth devices list above. This will open a new screen as shown in the below image that prompts you for the Pin Code you specified in Step 5.
Enter the Pin Code and then click the Connect button in the top right corner of the above window. This will pair the iPhone with Uconnect and take you back to the Bluetooth devices screen where the Uconnect Hands Free device will now show Connected as shown in the below image.
After the device is connected you will be prompted by the Uconnect voice again so proceed to the below steps.
Phone Name & Priority: After connecting the iPhone you will then name the phone and set a priority between one and seven. Name the phone anything you would like and if this is your primary phone set the priority to one so this phone always connects at a higher priority than any other phone.
Verify & Test:Now have a friend dial your cell phone while you are in your car to see if the music volume lowers and the Uconnect voice tells you there is an incoming call from a certain number. To make calls you can press the Uconnect button and follow the voice prompts.
The Uconnect system is a great way to safely use your cell phone in the car.
Not all Chrysler products have uconnect; it may show the button on the radio, but if the uconnect system isn't installed you get the error you're getting; My Dodge Nitro is the same. You can buy the uconnect from the dealer or off of eBay (they run about $300, plus it has to be installed) Details about Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram Hands Free Uconnect Kit OEM MOPAR
At the dealership they have a scanner that see's the input or output of the mirror mic and can see if it is working,it will also store a fault code for it too,DVD player may be a different issue and may be related to the radio.
My 2010 Dodge Ram appears to have uconnect. However, I can not get my phone connected. When I try it says not equipped with uconnect phone. Is this a fake display? Or do I have to have a certain phone hook up?
For me to use a phone with my uconnect and still use AT&T as my bundled provider, I had only one choice of phones. The HTC ONE. Did you use the software tool available that matches the IPS you have or want with the phone features you want. The program spits out the phone(s) available. I wanted all the features including speech to text to a text message, and some other geeky features that in the end limited me to the HTC ONE. But I lucked out. the phone is incredible. Oh, I have yet to use the feature I bought the phone for! You probably have the Uconnect help and support number but here it is anyway; 1-877-855-8400. I hope this helps.
My Uconnect is factory installed on my 2005 Dodge Truck. There are two control buttons on the rearview mirror for the uconnect. For a long time my uconnect would not fully function with my bluetooth phone and then lately it quite working most of the time. I did a bunch of research adn found this procedure to do a hard reset. After doing this the uconnect came back fully and all functions are working. I now this sounds stupid and you feel stupid doing it, but it did work for my vehicle. 1- Turn on ignition w/doors closed 2- Press both buttons on mirror for 15-20 seconds 3- Shut off ignition 4- Open door for 5-10 seconds 5- Close door and restart car, Uconnect is now reset
