Can you upgrade to uconnect 5?

Thanks to rfullen280, I got my CVPM swapped out with the one he suggested and my cameras are back! (all but the 360). My Uconnect 5 still cuts out frequently however.
 
Radio module- 68507350AB

12” screen, depending on engine and lane assist feature:
Hazard button only (gas)- 68526608AB
Hazard/traction control (diesel)- 68526609AB
Hazard/lane departure warning (gas)- 68526610AB
Hazard/traction control/lane departure (diesel)- 68526611AB

CVPM- 56029965AC

As far as programming/updates, you’ll just need to use AlfaOBD to change the model year in the BCM to 2022, and recalibrate the cameras for the new CVPM. I also have a copy of the latest software version for the radio that you can put on usb to update the radio module.

PM me for details on the necessary custom cables.
@Jimmy07 do you have a link to the steps for Alphaobd to change the model year so I can get my uconnect 5 working in my 21 1500 ram
 
Evening all...

I just found this forum. I recently upgraded a 2019 2500 big horn diesel from 8.4 UC4 to 12.1 UC5. I have made the necessary changes in the BCM ICS and Display and have back up camera blue screen ( Please check surroundings). Only camera on the truck currently installed is the backup camera. I swapped back to the 8.4 and reset the BCM to the original settings...backup camera worked. So i have isolated it a setting or the UC5 module itself. The UC5 upgrade had a 2023 manufacture date if that means anything. Any suggestions on what i should change? Thanks in advance. Brian
