  1. ****SOLVED**** Well sorta solved ? And I probably should have done this first... live & learn. But I completely disconnected the backup camera from the back of the radio & uconnect device, unplugged the extensions & ran the wiring directly into both units... BOOM! Turns out the main wiring harness for the backup camera is toast. This harness was causing my blank screen on startups, loss of hvac of course the issues with the backup camera. I will eventually replace the harness, but im happy enough right now to have a functional radio/infotainment system again. Just i thought I'd follow up with a post & picture in the event there are still others dealing with the same BS. Hope it helps!
  2. Figured I'd start a new topic as I'm still dealing with issues. - I replaced the radio/receiver - i replaced the 4.3 screen - I've checked all of the fuses I am still having the blank screen issues & loss of HVAC upon startup I can get the screen working & get everything back on line after disconnecting the negative, but the issues come back the next morning. The other issue I noticed (& this was happening with the other screen I just replaced as well) is when i hit the "MORE" button on the side menu, the screen will go blank. I cant touch it for a few seconds... but eventually I can get it to come back on. I wonder if this is directly tied to the above issues? What would cause just the "more" menu to cutout like that when pressed? Could this be a case where the software needs to be checked/reinstalled/etc... i'm at a loss It sounds like I'm gonna have to take it to the local dealer, but was curious if anyone had any additional knowledge to share
  3. Hi Everyone - new member here. I know these issue have been presented prior to my post, but ultimately looking for reassurance that I am on the right path. I have a 2015 Dodge Journey Issues started in the winter - on frigid days below 30 degrees, the infotainment/screen would not come on. I would be able to control the radio & volume from the steering wheel. However, all of my buttons below the cd player (aside from the 4way) would be rendered useless & my heat/blower would be stuck on max. I would need to drive the car for a bit til it warmed up, disconnect the battery, reconnect & the screen would turn on. Now this summer - issues are continuing regardless of the weather or temperature. Everything above is still happening on almost every startup. I have replaced every fuse under the dash. I have removed everything from the dash & reinstalled, checking connections & whatnot. I'm incredibly frustrated! Anyway, power seems like its getting to where it needs to go, but the devices just seem to be failing regardless. I am beginning to think its the actual radio/head unit causing the issues. What do you guys think? Side quest: My backup camera is also flakey. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. And at some point it randomly decided that when it does work, it will only show the image reversed. Again, I'm baffled. I'm assuming I just have to replace the camera unit itself at this point. Thanks for any help or suggestions!
