I was getting ready to run my dash cam power cord behind radio to power supply. I had no clue where to start. I googled and found your video. Awesome totally. Your video save me time and damage. I appreciate what you do. Thanks. The fact that you care about avoiding damage is so cool. Some people just tare things up and don't care...wow.I am glad you do like me.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

MightyDavid Thanks man. Glad that the video helped. Keeping it looking like it did when in came in is the game plan always. I don’t like customers fusing at me because I scratched something. So tape is my friend and cheap as well lol. Thanks again for watching and make sure to subscribe

[@LibGibson]

Sir, you predicted the future because I am here to learn exactly this.

[@DadsRCGaragePNW]

4 min in i got my radio out without scratches or Mars. I do appreciate your attention to detail and explanation for a newb. Ssved me time brother. Thank you

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Glad I could help. Thanks for the comment and make sure to subscribe

[@prankmonkey650]

After watching your videos for awhile, you seem like the kind of tech who would treat a 1995 Jeep and a 2018 new Jeep the same way. I’d be happy to have you work on my Jeeps!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Treat it like its your own is how I look at it. Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

[@talezfromthedashcam3138]

Wow I have no intention of doing this, but your attention to detial is impeccable. Definitely a Thumbs Up!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks for watching and for commenting. Appreciate the feedback little things I work hard on that most dont notice in the videos. Make sure to subscribe if you havent already.

[@kk4402]

Best insulation and removal tutorial for radio I’ve seen!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks! I appreciate those kind words. Make sure to subscribe.

[@IncompleteJeep]

Ive been wondering about the radio removal and /or replacement since I got mine. Not that I want to, but this good to know! Thanks for the video!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I have 4 more videos coming out that cover the same vehicle. Make sure to check them out as well. You never know when you need to know some of these repairs. Thanks for watching and for the comment.

[@IncompleteJeep]

Looking forward to the other videos

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Hopefully everyone else doesnt get bored with them lol. Might have to mix it up a bit to make everyone happy.

[@IncompleteJeep]

Nah… Its good information and you present it well. Keep coming up with new stuff, Ill be watching.

[@thewolfman2010]

Do you know if the UConnect 4 with Apple CarPlay and the larger screen is plug and play? Just bought a JL with the radio in this video and would like to upgrade to the better unit if it's an easy swap.

[@dallisk-d]

I’m soooooo happy I found a video made for this concern I had with purchasing The JL! 🤘🏿 I want to possibly get a bigger screen. Happy to see your in GA also! Yay.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Glad you found the channel as well! I am sure some company will come out with a way to upgrade to the larger radio. It will just take time with them being on the market for it to happen. infotainment.com is my go to source for that kind of stuff. Thanks again for watching. Make sure to subscribe and check out my other videos as well.

[@dallisk-d]

Aww Much Appreciation for that info! 🤘🏿

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Your welcome!

[@mdubiansky603]

Nice to see they were able to really step up interior quality without making it hard to take apart. My JK was simple to do interior stuff on but it wasn't much to look at. haha. Some of the interior plastics are nuts. I have a Grand Cherokee now and I hear that the big trim piece around the radio/climate controls is like $700+. And that's for a cheapo hunk of plastic on a Laredo trim. I can't imagine what trim costs in some of these models with fancy wood, carbon fiber, etc.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

It sure is a step up on the interior appearance. I wonder the price from time to time when I try to get some of the hard panels off.....one opps and then there goes my wallet lol. Thanks Mike for watching man!

[@cors5600]

Also, maybe add an oil change video and specifically call out that this new model is 5qts of oil and not 6. Even my local Jeep dealer overfilled mine! I had to inform them they were wrong and every mechanic had no idea at the dealer.

[@chicagowsox212]

Thanks for posting this. I have upgraded radio but I’m curious to see how to work on anything on the Jeep. Anyone that comments that the radio is a piece of crap is just an idiot anyway. Every radio on the face of the earth can be upgraded. Just like there’s always someone tougher than the next guy, there’s always a better radio. Glad this dude took the time to post this

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks for watching and for the comment! Its much appreciated

[@ryanturner6475]

Can you recommend a upgrade radio?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I dont have any experience with any aftermarket ones. There is a upgrade coming out in the next month from the 5.0 inch to either the 7.0inch or 8.4 inch. Not cheap but will be OEM and work seamlessly as if you ordered it that way. infotainment.com has all the details.

[@Riding_with_Adam]

Great video. Showed me everything I need to know to swap my 7" for the 8.4". Thanks!!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Glad to be able to help. Let me know how it turns out and if anything doesnt work. I am curious about the swap as well. Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe

[@ryanturner6475]

Me too

[@Riding_with_Adam]

@@MotorCityMechanic swap was very easy, plug and play for those going 7 to 8.4

[@MotorCityMechanic]

So all the features work well? Suppose to team up with infotainment.com to do a swap real soon and they are actually programming the radio to the VIN of the vehicle I will be installing it.

[@Riding_with_Adam]

@@MotorCityMechanic I don't have heated seats, but everything else works. I'm in the process of installing the wifi antenna and the Alpine pss 23wra. So hopefully this weekend I will see how it reacts to the wifi and what VIN it gives me when I set up guardian. I bought a take unit and had the anti theft code, so I'm not sure if it reset itself or not when I first put it in. Or if having the battery unhooked while installing the new sound system if it will reset when I turn everything back on, if that makes sense.

[@robertarce5399]

Great video David,and good idea on using the tape.I just wished the JL would've come equipped with the 5.7 hemi.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

That would be bad ass for sure. You never know but then again I have learned not to hold my breath on matters such as that lol.

[@djr3485]

Like your work - some great professional tips David.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks again! Its always appreciated

[@johnliszewski7749]

There are several PT Cruiser and Chrysler 300 pages on Facebook. Lots of people with questions. I have recommended your video's often.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks John. Appreciate the help spreading the word

[@juanestrada4089]

Im not own a jeep but enjoy your videos very well explanación

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Much appreciated Juan! You never know but you might one day or a buddy of yours might and then you can show off some of your knowledge on what you have learned. Thanks for watching and following the channel!

[@trevisshaw7124]

I’m that guy 5 years later replacing my OEM 5” 😅 thank you!

[@AlbertaPatriot1985]

Just like on the JK, that looked super simple!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Very true sir......both have those "hidden screws".....just need to know where and the order. Thanks for checking it out!

[@taotaomona1]

Thank you, David, for a very thorough removal/installation video.

[@mergedown]

Thanks for the video. I was chatting with Brandon, The Jeep Informant, and he recommended this video so I could find power for my brake controller. I was able to get the brake controller all wired up, but I can’t seem to find a pedal signal wire. I self installed my Mopar tow harness/hitch as my JL did not come with the tow package. Unfortunately, because it didn’t come with the tow package, it does not come with a harness for a brake controller. Brandon provided me with a photo of the wiring diagram and of the pedal signal wire that I needed to tap into, but I’m still not having any luck. My brake controller works fine when I use the manual switch on the controller itself, so I know everything is working correctly, but I just can’t seem to make it work when pressing the brake pedal. I’ve posted in multiple forums and have not had any luck. Wondering if you might have some thoughts on this. Thanks!

[@odavila03]

Thank You so much for the incredible details on your videos!!! On the JL forums I’m on there are a lot of people wondering how to use the new AUX buttons. Can you make a video on that? Also, you should put links to amazon on the parts you use. I would definitely use them! That would also ensure we buy the correct part number. THANK YOU!

[@wyattoneable]

I watched this video. Lets see if I come back in a few years when my radio needs to be replaced and make another comment. :)

[@MotorCityMechanic]

At least you will remember where you saw it first! lol. Thanks Wyatt!

[@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire]

Thanks for the info. I was not so much interested in how to do a radio replacement, but how to get to the back of the push to start switch so that I could tie into it so that I can design an additional security mechanism that can be used in addition to the key fob.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Glad the video helped out with what you needed. I appreciate you taking the time to watch it and to comment. Make sure to subscribe and check out my others if you havent already.

[@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire]

Will do... Thanks... Here's my thoughts on what your video helped me with: sites.google.com/site/navyvet1959/vehicles/wrangler-jl-start-button-security

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Much appreciate the shout out!

[@jamesinkeys]

Solid info on taking out the radio..I wanted to know if the radio could be replace with the optional 7" nav info center, plug and play..If all the connectors are there from the factory...Subbed and always a thumbs up!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks. Not sure as of yet....still a bit new and I havent had the chance to make the swap as of yet. I too am curious. Thanks for subscribing

[@00ninja00]

Did the original JL 7” have navigation option??? Now the gladiators 7” don’t have navigation, if you want navigation, you’ll have to get the 8.4”. I’m curious if the ‘18 JL 7” screens had navigation?

[@billrimmer5596]

Great explanation! Always look for your latest.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks Bill.....hopefully I wont bore you with this series of 5 in a row related to the Wrangler. I might try to squeeze something inbetween to change things up.

[@Harbinger_of_nurgle]

Gotta take my uconnect out because it’s stuck in a boot loop & will kill my battery, thanks for this

[@briankenyon3356]

Great video. Any tips on removing the silver dash piece? Is there a sequence that the panels need to be removed to get that off? Would love a “how-to” video like this if you have the time.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Havent had to remove it yet so not too sure all that needs to be removed. If your speaking of the panel in the right side of the dash then it requires the passenger airbag assembly to be removed being that they are attached to each other. I will keep it in mind as a possible future video.

[@lillibean1]

2018 Wrangler Sahara JL. Dealer said I needed a new radio. Flashing and changing channels. Ac/heat quit working. I turned off “set time by GPS. Everything now works. I think maps are outta date.

[@hiwaystar69]

Well done

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks. Make sure to subscribe.

[@elmel7896]

Very clear and detailed explanation. By the way, does it need to disconnect the car battery before doing the job?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks. No need for the battery disconnect. It wouldn’t cause any issues being connected.

[@rabiaaoude6839]

Esay to remove, thank you David but you think aftermarket radio is available now ? I just bought my 2019 sport and thinking to upgrade

[@BertineFamily]

So, what's wrong with the radio? It's a brand new Jeep, right?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

You did watch the video right?

[@Travcity1]

Great Video. Any idea how to remove the Alpine subwoofer on the new JL? I removed the 8 screws in the grill retainer and the sub will not come out. I’ve pried pretty good. Something must be holding it from behind. Thank for your help. Might be a good quick video for you.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

The procedure will be different for the 2 door and the 4 door. If you email me at [e-mail] and let me know which you have an I will email you that info.

[@jeepfreak3154]

Great video. Thank you.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thank you! Appreciate the feedback/comment.

[@TriGonz1]

Thank you for the helpful video, great to see these steps and get to see how things snap into place! Have you seen a color coded speaker wire diagram for the JL yet? Would it be the same colors as the JK possibly?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

The diagrams are web based and interactive. No way to show all the wiring related in a couple of screen shots. Otherwise they are accessible currenty. A possible connector pinout image might be avail if interested. Email me at [e-mail] and I can help you if needed

[@bryantovar7103]

Awesome thank you very much!

[@TopHatGent]

Well my jeep is on it's third junk base radio, they still can't get it to work correctly. 13k miles, i'll be looking into upgrading to the 8.4

[@ricktokle5848]

😎🇺🇸 Hey David Good Stuff👍 Wish you worked at my local Dodge Dealer here in Littleton Co. I would love you taking care of my baby 2011 Ram 2500. Great video as always ✌🏻

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks Rick! Wish I could be everywhere but I have been getting slower in my older age lol

[@wilbersolis8825]

[@dweaver1805]

What I need to know is what each of those connectors are for?

[@ShArK795]

🇮🇹 bellissimo video 😃 amico complimenti 👍🏼 continua cosi 🦈 🇬🇧 beautiful video 😃 friend congratulations 👍🏼 keep it up 🦈 🇮🇹🦈🇮🇹

[@markcooper3382]

going from the 5" radio to the 7" radio you lose the volume and tuning controls. It requires the climate control option that includes these knobs. Would you by chance know the part number for that climate control with radio knobs?

[@kyleheinrich9407]

If the original radio didn't have satellite radio, what else in addition to the new radio would I have to do to get it?

[@veiledzorba]

So. If one has a base radio, the 5" Uconnect 3 as pictured here, what happens if you never re-install it?

[@kipamore]

Call me crazy, but it feels to me like the merger with Fiat was a good thing for Chrysler. Much like AMC did a lot for Chrysler in terms of improving quality 30 years ago. The way this JL is put together and comes apart seems like a step up from the dark days of Benz junk.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

They over time keep improving the quality and fit and finish for sure. Evolution at its finest! As far as Fiat versus Diamler....there is still that European influence that comes across that I dont always have a fuzzy feeling about.

[@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire]

I think the kiddie engineers added little whiz-bang features into the new Wrangler just so that they could put it on their resumes. :( We don't need a computer controlling the starting of a vehicle. A key has worked well enough for MANY years and there is no reason to change it. The wiring to the rear brake and signal lights has gotten overly complicated in that it also gets controller / monitored by the computer and you can't just splice wires and put in a trailer wiring harness. And although you can still take the doors and roof off, it doesn't look like a Wrangler anymore when you do that, it looks like a unibody SUV where you just cut out the panels between the support portions of the unibody. Also, it's gotten big. The 2-door Wrangler is only 0.3" shorter than the 4-door Cherokee (XJ) that I used to own.

[@HondaFamily88]

Great video! Thanks so much for posting this. Sorry for the stupid question but did you disconnect the battery beforehand?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks Howard. No I didnt.....its the first step in any repair but I have learned over the years its not needed. Its about taking care and paying attention to what your doing. Now if I am working around the starter or alternator I do for sure being that the positive battery cable is in those locations. Otherwise its a bit of being overly cautious in my opinion. Thanks for watching and for the comment.

[@lizhenry1524]

Is there a way to buy the red clip that goes from the car wire for the backup camera to the new stereo? My husband knocked the piece off inside the dash and we cannot get to it.

[@matthewbarnhart5874]

I would have like to see what behind the radio looked like

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I will keep that in mind the next time I take one out.

[@lillibean1]

2018 Wrangler JL. Unconnect flashing, ac not working. Dealer said I needed a new radio. Came home, fooled with it. Turned off “set time by GPS. All fixed. Maybe maps outta date.

[@litoornelas6409]

Does the battery need to be disconnected when upgrading?

[@tiffanycollins5200]

Can you get a new panel where the ac controls are with a volume button to replace that one?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Not a 100% sure. Havent had the chance to try it.

[@MegaCapoccia]

Does the stock trim panel fit for aftermarket radios? Looking for a CarPlay upgrade but less expensive than the infotainment one.

[@rvboyett]

I've got that exact same radio and I'm looking to replace it in the future with an aftermarket unit. Thank you for what will be an extremely useful instructional video. Do you, or anyone else yet have suggestions for an aftermarket head unit for the Wrangler Unlimited JL? I realize it's new and there may not yet be a compatible HU but it doesn't hurt to ask. Thanks again..

[@208miuwu]

Great Video many thanks brother.

Gettimg a JL always install my own audio. Will my pioneer avh 4800 DVD/cd player fit in that tiny looking space between the vents . think my screen is 7" , can't remember right this second....thanks man.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

They offer the 7 inch and 8.4 inch radios from the factory so you should be able to.

[@motonoia]

What trim Jeep is this? I haven’t seen the basic Uconnect 5” screen on a Jeep with hill descent control. That’s interesting.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

The video was from a while back so I dont remember the trim level, mu apologizes. Thanks for watching and make sure to subscribe.

[@SamDouglas92]

It’s the sport S model

[@sircheesethethird6179]

where did u get the replacement radio? can you use just a radio from pioneer that is “compatible?”

[@MotorCityMechanic]

The radio wasnt replaced in the video....the video mainly was for showing how to remove and replace. I dont deal with aftermarket radios so I dont know what all is needed to make it work in this Jeep. They do require additional items but I havent installed one in about 20 years now.

[@spencergaither8660]

Can you show how the A/C Vents come out? Dose the dash have to come out on the JL modes?

[@torpedowarmachine]

hey great video! I have the small 5.4in radio also. I was wondering is it possible to buy the stock 7.0in screen and put it in myself? the dimensions look the same as it seems it'll fit right in the 5.4in bezels

[@DJSteveEstabrook]

I can not find a radio to replace it with to upgrade with on a 2018 Wrangler JL!

[@raide1448]

Can you replace a uconnect 5.0 with another 5.0 that has Satellite radio?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Not 100% sure but I dont see why not....you will need the SAT antenna to make it work however.

[@jtslim32]

Are the harnesses on the back of 5" the same as the back of the 7" or 8.4"? I'm looking to upgrade my 5".

[@diegoortiz3482]

I want the 7 or 8in radio but they only offer them in the Rubicon and Sahara for the JL. Do you think I can get the sport and replace the 5in radio with a 7 or 8in? Great video btw

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Not sure.....too new to know. Time will tell. I am sure someone will figure it out. There is a website called infotainment.com....if anyone knows in the future....they will. I am curious myself. Thanks for watching

[@diegoortiz3482]

Sweet thanks man!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Your welcome!

[@jeepfreak3154]

The 7” screen is an available option in the Sport S but not the Sport. The 7” also includes Apple Car Play and Android Auto.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks for that info!

[@jameskeith8964]

Can you replace the 7 inch radio with the 8.4 inch radio. In a Jeep JL Sport or sport S.

[@sircam6]

James Keith yes but the radios are vin locked, so you would have to order a radio from www.infotainment.com/products/2018-2019-jeep-wrangler-jl-gps-navigation-radio-uconnect-uaq-4c-nav-upgrade and have the dealership vin code it it to your jl

[@thesamschwartzonline]

I didn't see a standard antenna plug? Does the 2018 JL use the standard 1 pin antenna plug, or something new or proprietary?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Yeah no more connector that you might have been used to in the past. They have changed the design.

[@spacecowboy1924]

This design has been used since 2010. It's been a minute since youve seen behind a factory radio huh? Requires a standard pac part baa22 adapter

[@GBR080R]

The sales manager must have threatened you not to mess up their new JL. OK, but if you break anything it's coming out of your pocket!

[@MotorCityMechanic]

There is always that unspoken rule lol. They have always been very supportive of the channel which is greatly appreciative for sure. But I am sure that if I did break or damage something.....that would be the end of that lol.

[@johnliszewski7749]

Unrelated to the Jeep. 1999 D2500 Van with the updated 318 is using excessive oil. Motor purrs at idle and running even before the Cat was replacement and that's when the gauge started bouncing then zero's out. Of course, the van is shut off and parked for awhile. No signs of sludge or oil burning at the tailpipe. No visable leaks. The kid who owns it is going cross country. 5 hours of driving, 2 plus quarts. Lucas hasn't had an effect. Forums haven't been of much help. Just lots of angry Mopar owners.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

On that older model.....it should have a 5.2 or 5.9. Typically what I find when it uses alot of oil other then a warn engine is a blown baffle gasket. That intake has a metal plate underneath and a gasket. That gasket can blow outward over time and allow the engine to "sip" oil. I have replaced a many of those a long time ago when they use to show up at the dealership. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Make sure to subscribe.

Anything coming up on chain driven water pumps? Chrysler seems to have learned, Ford has not. When all the Fords start blowing those water pumps, there r going to b a lot of happy Ford customers

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Yeah internal waterpumps were something I never liked.....the older 2.7 was that way. Luckily we have been staying away from that set up and mount ours external.

[@edecioparedes7424]

I have the same radio. How do I find the siriusxm button?

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Typically if I ever correctly you keep going thru the input button…..scrolling thru FM….AM…..and then Sirius

[@miken9484]

👍👍

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Many thanks

[@miken9484]

MotorCity Mechanic can you make a video on how to replace the interior lights in the 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL? (Map light, dome lights. License plate lights) thank you in advance

[@MotorCityMechanic]

I will certainly keep it in mind!

[@cors5600]

How in the world are there no comments yet on how bad these radios are? I know you made a disclaimer, but that is BS. I’ve owned multiple model year jeeps and this radio is dying on everyone. It is not one trim level either, it’s all of them. My JLU has one right now that won’t turn on and all my accessory powered ports are also dead. 3000 miles!! Check the JLwrangerforums and you will see how many people are truest affected.

[@TheSavage3.6]

Mike Corsner Id rather have an RA1 radio than that POS.

[@morodpour]

This is how it is done! How to make a video.

[@aaronchandler2380]

I have that radio, it needs replacing cause its a POS! But its a jeep not a low rider...

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Thanks for watching Aaron. Know you know the needed steps. Make sure to subscribe.

[@TheSavage3.6]

this radio is shit.

[@kedricpatterson4239]

I have a 2019 JL and I have this radio and its garbage. It shorts out everyday and there are no updates for it and Jeep is not taking responsibility. Frustrated as Hell So the radio is not 100.

[@Cyberpunk2056]

Screen is way to small

[@MotorCityMechanic]

This one is the base model with roll up windows. They do offer a much larger radio so their options for those who desire bigger and better. Thanks for watching

[@LBYINCHINA]

8.4 inch Uconnect is available on other trim level. The one shown in this video is 5.0 inch Uconnect system, no navigation.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Its going to be odd seeing the 8.4 in the wrangler but a welcome addition!

[@Reaglesracing44_]

bet the radio replace was cause recall

[@juice63991]

He said there was nothing wrong with the radio genius.

[@MotorCityMechanic]

Lol.....no issues or recall. What I like to so is to get my hands on the newest vehicles we have and make a few videos about them.....mainly to be the first on the internet to have a video on a repair for that vehicle. Its all about being first, thats all.

[@kipamore]

First!!

[@fullsend_ny7948]

Great video but seriously it’s like you love hearing yourself talk. No need to literally explain every little detail we get it you don’t need to spend 46 second talking about tape !! Smh less is more dude

[@MotorCityMechanic]

It’s funny how a lot of people appreciate the detailed info and complain how other videos don’t give enough and then other people say you give tooo much detail. One thing I have learned after 410 videos is that I have a way of doing things and have modified the way I film videos for a reason. You may like and you may not. I think in the end the point is showing how to do something and the more info the better. To each their own. So I take your comment in hand and appreciate but don’t expect me to change the way I make videos. To someone else....that info might be important.

[@1stAmendmentfukyoutube]

Sound in general sucks in my JL. Reception and everything sucks

[@ryguy57106]

Another great video, thanks
