2024 3500 - does having camera plugs equate to functionality enabled?

[MM 2024 Ram]

Hello, I’ve also been through this. In order for your cameras to work properly, your truck’s gateway needs to be configured when you first order the truck. The dealers seem to think it’s plug and play and that’s just not the case. Also, corporate will not help you because it’s not considered a fix, it’s considered a modification.

my cameras still don’t work properly and the dealer stopped talking to me about it.
I should have taken the cameras off and returned them right away but with what I went through to install them but that was my mistake.

Now I use them threw auxiliary 1, if I use them at all as it’s too much trouble switching between views while you’re trying to park.
Now I’m teaching myself to park using my mirrors or I have the wife back it in.

You’d think the dealers would know how to configure this but guess again.

Good luck!

Scott,

I believe the "Wired Two-Mode Camera" is available for the 2024 trucks. I found the camera on a Window Sticker at a dealership in Denver; it shows a cost of $635. Also, I have found the Tow-Mode Camera online but it is for the 2022 trucks; not sure if it would work for the 2024's. You'll see that the end of the cable appears to be a coax type so it would plug in to the port on the left side of the license plate. If I can't find this part number my next step is find someone that carriers the camera and see if the 2022 camera works on my 2024.

If the camera is available on some of the new trucks then we should be able to purchase that camera. That is what I am trying to find out... where can I purchase that camera.

I attached pics of the Window Sticker with the URL and the Mopar site that shows the 2022 camera, also provided the URL.

Tks!

See @CortexM0 response to you in post #19 in this thread yesterday.
You and @Slucia are talking about two different camera systems. You’re talking about the tow mode camera, and he’s talking about the trailer surround view camera system.

I am wanting the tow-mode camera for my 2024 Ram. Has anyone been able to locate a part number?

2024 3500 - does having camera plugs equate to functionality enabled?

Howdy - So, I'm new to the forum - my apologies if this has been discussed previously. I've done many searches and can't quite get my particular question nailed down. I've just purchased a Limited 2024 3500. Before doing the deal I asked the dealer to confirm that I would be able to use tow...

We're you able to find a camera that functions with the Digital Rearview Mirror?
I recently purchased a 2024 Ram 3500 Limited... came with the digital rearview mirror. I also purchased a camera system from the dealership for use with the digital rearview mirror... or so I thought. The camera system I was given has a 7 pin connector that can connect on the bumper or inside the bed. The camera system works fine, however, it displays on Aux 2 and not the rearview mirror.

The camera system that feeds to the rearview mirror has a connector that is similar to a coax cable... and it plugs into the bumper on the LEFT side of the license plate; not on the RIGHT side were the trailer connector and the 7 pin Aux camera connections are located.

The camera I have installed works while I am driving and is displayed on the screen, not the rearview mirror, when Aux 2 is selected... but it times out. Not practical when towing!

I have asked several dealership parts departments to look for the camera I need. The one that was found works with the digital rearview mirror, but it is for a 2022 model... no one has been able to find one for the 2024 model. I also reached out to Ram Customer Support... I was informed that I need to work with a local dealership parts department. I have informed them that I already have to no avail... waiting on a response from Ram Customer Support.

If anyone has found the camera that has the "coax" connector, or if anyone know if the 2022 model camera will work on the 2024 please share that information.

Thanks!

MM
