- 8.4" touchscreen in the centre of the dash

Overview of the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAC
The Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAC is a dealer-installed Chrysler audio and multimedia unit. Alongside everyday radio and audio playback it may include touchscreen controls, Bluetooth, CD/DVD playback or factory navigation, depending on how the vehicle left the factory.
Uconnect 8.4 UAC is a North American Panasonic 8.4-inch head unit configured for fleet and commercial trim levels - 8.4-inch touchscreen with AM/FM, SiriusXM, Bluetooth and USB, no built-in maps. The home screen carries the standard Uconnect tiles without a NAV slot.
The Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAC was installed in various Chrysler models between 2017-2019. It was commonly fitted to vehicles built on the Panasonic multimedia platform and is still one of the more recognisable factory radios of that period.

8.4" touchscreen
AM/FM radio
Bluetooth hands-free and audio streaming
USB media playback
SiriusXM satellite radio*

Like many factory-installed radios, the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAC is protected by an anti-theft system. If power is interrupted after replacing or disconnecting the vehicle battery, the unit may request the original radio code before it can be used again.
How to Get the Serial Number From Your Radio
Every Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAC has a unique serial number, and the unlock code is worked out from it. You will find that number on the unit's own label - it is not in the service book and not on the dashboard.
Where exactly: Top of the chassis on a printed white sticker. Pull the radio out via three 7mm bolts; no on-screen serial display while in lock mode.
Getting to the label:
- Ease the radio out of the dash - most units need a pair of release keys, which cost very little online.
- Read the serial from the factory sticker on the housing, beside the barcode.
- Type it into the form exactly as printed, without spaces.

Once the code arrives
Nothing to install and no tools needed - only the code itself.
- Switch the ignition on and let the radio boot to its security screen.
- A four-digit keypad appears on the display.
- Key in the code, one digit at a time, left to right.
- Verification happens by itself once the fourth digit is in.
- On a correct code the radio leaves security mode and plays again.
If something goes wrong
The screen shows a wait timer
After a few wrong entries the radio stops accepting codes for a while - cutting power only restarts the clock. Three wrong attempts triggers a 30-minute WAIT countdown. Keep ignition in RUN or ACC for the timer to run down.
I cannot find the serial number
The serial is on the unit itself, not in the vehicle papers or on the dashboard. Top of the chassis on a printed white sticker. Pull the radio out via three 7mm bolts; no on-screen serial display while in lock mode.
The radio locked itself again
Expected behaviour: the security system trips again whenever power is cut. Loss of 12V power - dead battery, replacement, or radio removal.
I am not sure I have the right variant
A few models in this family share the same face, so the label is what settles it. UAC is fleet-spec non-nav with feature flags reduced for commercial use. If your vehicle is a passenger car trim level, you probably have UAQ instead. The part number sticker carries the UAC reference.
The code belongs to the radio and never changes, so keep it somewhere safe once you have it.
