No. The AC issue is here to stay. From the dealer tech (who spent a good amount of time on it, until the serv manager got mad at him )

The issue is that the climate control module on non auto AC is not compatible with the 8.4 climate controls.

I've also read on the charger forums, that dodge knows about the issue from people who've bought the nav upgrade from mopar. That's people who are spending 1,700$ on the upgrade, but don't have the auto AC on their cars.

Dodge isn't doing anything about it, or atleast not yet.

I've looked at the part#s from the part manual, and can't find a different part # for AC modules. I'm thinking that the problem lies within the TIPM.

I got it to do what I initially want it to do (back up cam). So my wife just deals with the AC "inconvenience"

Honestly it isn't that much of a big deal. Everything else works fine.

Thanks for the quick response. I'll look further into the associated costs of the parts to see if this is a viable option.

chavo, thanks for a great topic with excellent pictures and instructions

were you ever able to get the hvac integration figured out?

Mcgusto, were you ever able to fix the HVAC integration issue?

Some of the re-sellers I'm seeing (in Canada) actually seem to suggest that the RB5 unit only works if you have the Auto Climate option (I don't have this) - I'll hold off on this project until I know whether you were able to resolve it

Thanks for your posts - they're really informative
