How to enter a Jeep, Chrysler or Dodge Uconnect code
Uconnect touchscreens that ask Please Enter Anti-Theft Code, as seen on the 8.4 inch screen in the Grand Cherokee and Cherokee and the 7 inch screen in the Wrangler.Our own drawing of this screen.
Type it and every step uses your own digits. It stays on this page.
Turn the ignition on. The screen shows Please Enter Anti-Theft Code and a number keypad.
Every step
The wait is from Chrysler's service bulletin. The code screen is from videos of these radios being unlocked, because Chrysler's handbooks do not describe it.
If it locks
Three wrong codes lock it. The screen tells you to wait 30 minutes; Chrysler's bulletin gives the word WAIT. Leave the radio switched on with the ignition in RUN for 30 minutes without a break. You can drive while it counts. Disconnecting the battery does not clear it. What each lockout screen means
A 5 inch screen, or an 8.4 inch from 2011 to 2014?
We have not seen those code screens for ourselves. If yours shows the same Please Enter Anti-Theft Code keypad, the code goes in the same way: type it, then touch the key the screen offers, Done or OK.
A security screen that shows the radio's own serial number?
That is the MyGig. MyGig steps
A Ram radio with knobs that shows 0 0 0 0 and OK?
That screen works differently and these steps are not for it. Go by the buttons on yours
Screen keeps restarting and never asks for the code?
The code can only go in once the unit has finished starting. Disconnect the battery for 15 to 30 minutes and try again. If it still restarts, that is a fault with the unit, not with your code.
