About part numbers: Sales codes and part numbers for radios and discs can be quite confusing. A 3-letter sales code is assigned for each radio in a particular series. For each sales code, “RER” for example, superseding part numbers are assigned during the production history. Most part numbers start out with a series of numbers, such as “5064401”. Revisions after that add a 2-letter suffix, as in “05064401AA” with later revisions followed by “AB“, “AC” “AD” and so on. Revisions can consist of circuitry updates or changes, firmware fixes and changes, and minor cosmetic changes.In addition, sometimes changing a supplier for a particular part will result in an updated part number. In almost all cases the higher the last letter of the part number the newer the part. While parts with the same master part number (“5064401”) are for the most part interchangeable with later revisions (“AA”, “AB” etc.), there are exceptions in some cases. When upgrading to a new radio it is usually best to stay within the Master part number series that is assigned to your vehicle, as shown in the tables below.

Bus systems MyGIG radios run on two different Bus systems, a low speed Bus (CAN B) and a high-speed Bus system (CAN C). MyGIG radios designed for a high-speed electrical bus will not work on a vehicle with a low-speed bus, and vice versa.

Sirius Satellite Radio – All versions of the RER radios feature a built-in satellite radio tuner. The non-navigation version of the MyGIG radio (model REN) is available with or without built-in Satellite radio, as noted in the part lists below. In-vehicle entertainment has evolved with another innovative product from MOPAR. Sirius Satellite Radio will introduce a new level of depth and content to radio listening by providing up to 100 channels of digital entertainment coast to coast; 60 commercial-free channels of music and 40 channels of news, sports and entertainment. Programming varies from the Best of the 80’s and Rock to Classic Jazz and Country sounds, ESPN Radio and The Weather Channel to Radio Disney and The History Channel. The system uses statistical multiplexing technology, which optimizes the fidelity on each channel, to provide superior sound resolution. The Sirius Satellite Radio System plays directly from your vehicle’s radio with the installation of a special receiver and permanent mount antenna. A monthly service fee will apply.

UConnect Hands Free Bluetooth – All versions of the MyGIG RER navigation radios feature UConnect built-in (a wiring harness is required for operation, see “Upgrading” section below). The non-navigation versions of the MyGIG radio (model REN) do not have UConnect built-in, but will interface with the factory UConnect system, if equipped. UConnect is the exclusive voice-activated, hands-free, in-vehicle communications system. It encourages safe vehicle operation and doesn’t compromise driver control. UConnect allows you to dial your wireless phone through simple voice commands. In addition, UConnect mutes your radio before receiving or sending a call, allows you to store up to 32 names and four numbers per name (128 entries) in the system’s phonebook, and is flexible enough for an entire family (up to five phones can be linked to the system). UConnect includes Bluetooth technology that enables your wireless phone to connect to your vehicle without wires or a docking station. This leading edge technology will allow you to store your wireless phone anywhere in the vehicle.

The UConnect™ system is fully integrated with the vehicle’s audio system. The radio display will be used for visual prompts from the UConnect™ system such as phone battery status, signal strength, caller ID, and call type. NOTE: Your phone may not support all available UConnect™ features. Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for UConnect™ system operating instructions.

RER = North America
REW = Europe
REP = South Africa, Middle East “GCC”, Australia, and New Zealand

9. Gracenote software updates for the MyGIG radios:

The Gracenote database identifies music tracks and provides song, artist and genre information for your music stored on your MyGIG hard drive or played from your MyGIG CD/DVD. Updates are released on DVD. The latest versions of the MyGIG Gracenote software are listed to the right.

Updated Gracenote information (January 2012):

RHR, RHW, RHP, RER, REW, REP, RHB, RBZ, RB5, RE2, RB6, and RE6 radios are equipped with a feature that will display the album artwork on the radio’s display screen. This feature works for music played through the remote USB port, SD card slot, CD, or music saved on the hard drive (not all radios are equipped with remote USB ports, SD card slots, or a hard drive). This feature is not available when using the Bluetooth Streaming Audio feature or when playing music on AM, FM, or satellite radio mode. The radio has Gracenote software built in that is used to identify the song and display the album artwork.

The Gracenote software looks at the title of the song, artist name, album title, and length of the song in order to identify which album artwork to display. If any of these elements of the music file are different in any way the song will not be identified. When customers download music from sharewhare sites it is very common for this information to either be missing or changed resulting in the song not being recognized. If the source of the music file is a store bought CD the software will display the album art the majority of the time. There are still some circumstances where the Gracenote software will not recognize a song even when it comes from a CD purchased from a store.

Some examples of why the Gracenote software will not recognize the song are:

1) The song was created/released after the customer’s version of Gracenote software was released.

2) Not every song is included in the Gracenote software that Chrysler uses on their Uconnect systems. they make every attempt to include the majority of the popular songs but there is a limitation on space for the software. For that reason some of the rare music and/or less popular albums will not be identified.

3) The title of the song, artist name, album title, or the length of the song do not match the information in the Gracenote database.

Customers may also notice that their media player is capable of identifying the album art but their radio does not. They may also state that their media player shows a different version of the album cover than the radio does. The radio does not download the album art from the media player; it looks up the art in the Gracenote software based on the title of the song, artist name, album title, and the length of the song.

Currently there are limited updates available for the Gracenote database. Mopar offered an update disc in the past for the RER radio but it was discontinued because they only sold a very small amount of discs. Chrysler is in the process of trying to make the software available on a website where customers can download the database and update the radio on their own. There is no timing for when this will be available.

13. Tips on buying a new or used MyGIG radio online from eBay
or from non-authorized dealers
If you are buying a MyGIG radio online from a non-authorized dealer note that you will NOT have a factory warranty. It is important to buy from a trusted source with excellent references, some of which offer their own warranty. Assure that the seller will provide a Dead On Arrival or longer guarantee, and that the unit will be carefully packaged. If purchasing a MyGIG radio with navigation, be sure that in addition to the radio that you receive the correct navigation antenna as well as the latest navigation software and owner’s manual.

 

14. Upgrading to a MyGig radio
 

Part 14A: For 2007-up Chrylser, Dodge and Jeep vehicles that are “MyGIG capable”

MyGIG radios can easily be added to vehicles that did not come from the factory with a MyGIG radio option. For a list of vehicles and model years see our vehicle compatibilty list. In these vehicles the radio wiring is compatible and the MyGIG radio can be exchanged for the stock radio. If a MyGIG radio with navigation is installed, a navigation antenna must be installed inside the dash area. Mopar offers kits for the MyGIG RER navigation radios. The kits include the radio, antenna and owner’s manual. For a list of MyGIG part numbers see section 1 above.

When purchasing a unit, it is best to stay within the part number range for your vehicle as shown in the parts listings below. The higher the part number pre-fix (“AB”, “AC”, “AD” etc.), the newer the revision and production date. Some vehicles may require optional bezel kits, or, for UConnect operation in RER radios, a special adaptor harness.

The use of a StarSCAN to retrieve and change additional radio settings may also be required. For example, if a vehicle’s backup camera does not display, the radio may not know that the vehicle has a camera. Conversely, if the radio thinks there’s a backup camera when there isn’t, the screen may display static when the vehicle is put into reverse.

UConnect wiring kit for RER navigation radios – When you add a model RER radio to a compatible vehicle, a special jumper harness is required to complete the installation for UConnect operation, even if you have the factory UConnect option to begin with. This is due to the conflict of having two UConnect modules – one in the vehicle, and another in the RER radio. In addition, if your vehicle did NOT come with factory UConnect you will still need a jumper harness AND will need to buy either the factory UConnect mirror with microphone, or the stand-alone Mopar microphone.
