How to Recognize the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR
Not sure if your vehicle is fitted with the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR? Compare the design, controls, display and features listed below against your factory radio.

- 8.4" touchscreen in the centre of the dash
- No navigation tile on the home screen - no maps installed
- Shipped for the North America market
- The chassis label carries the UAR sales code
- Serial number starting with TM9

- the 8.4" touchscreen is the one the Uconnect 8.4 family uses
UAR is a low-volume trim variant. Check the part-number sticker against the supported list on this page - if the sticker says UAQ, UAS or UAV, use the matching page instead.
Locating the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR Serial Number
Your unlock code is bound to the radio's serial number, so it is the one detail the form asks for. The number lives on the label printed on the housing of the radio itself.
Where exactly: Top of the chassis label. Removal required.
How to reach the number:
- Pull the unit forward with release keys (a few dollars online) - the wiring can stay plugged in.
- Read the serial from the printed label on the housing, next to or under the barcode.
- Enter it exactly as it appears - no spaces, no dashes.

Overview of the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR
Fitted as factory equipment in selected Chrysler models, the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR handles audio playback and vehicle integration out of the box. Depending on the version, it can also add Bluetooth, touchscreen operation, CD/DVD playback, navigation or wider multimedia support.
Uconnect 8.4 UAR is a North American Panasonic 8.4-inch head unit configured for a specific OEM trim group - 8.4-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth and USB. Feature set sits between UAQ (basic non-nav) and UAS (premium-audio).
Look for the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR in Chrysler vehicles from 2017-2020. It came with the Panasonic multimedia platform and is still widely fitted from that period.
Features you may find on the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR:
8.4" touchscreen
AM/FM radio
Hands-free Bluetooth with audio streaming
USB media playback
SiriusXM satellite radio*
Steering wheel control support
Anti-theft security code
*Availability varies with the vehicle configuration.
As with other Panasonic factory units, the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR locks itself when power is lost. After a battery disconnect or a workshop visit the screen will prompt for the original security code before any audio returns.
Background on the platform itself is published by the official Uconnect site.
When Does the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR Ask for Its Code?
The lock screen rarely appears out of nowhere - one of these four situations is behind almost every locked Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UAR we see.
After mechanical work
The repair went fine - the locked radio is just the side effect of the battery being off the car for a while.
A different unit is in the dash now
A radio from a scrapyard or an online sale comes with its own serial, so it needs its own code - read the label on the unit you fitted.
The previous owner had no code
Used cars very often arrive with a locked radio and no code card in the glovebox. The serial number on the unit is all that is needed to recover it.
New battery, locked radio
Whether the battery was replaced or just ran flat, the radio sees a power loss and asks for the code the next time it starts.
Whichever of these happened to you, the fix is identical: the serial number off the radio, the form at the top of this page, and the code is emailed in seconds.

Putting the code into the radio
It takes less than a minute once you have the four digits.
- Turn the ignition on so the radio powers up and shows the locked screen.
- A keypad for the code fills the middle of the screen.
- Tap the four digits of your code in order.
- There is no separate OK button - the radio checks the code on the last tap.
- A correct code clears the lock screen and the audio comes straight back.
Common problems
Too many wrong attempts
After a few wrong entries the radio stops accepting codes for a while - cutting power only restarts the clock. 30-minute WAIT timer after three wrong codes.
The label is not where I expected
Only the radio itself carries it - bring the unit out and the label is right there. Top of the chassis label. Removal required.
Locked again after it was fine
Nothing is broken. Any interruption to the 12V supply brings the lock screen back. Battery service or radio removal.
Making sure it is the right unit
The differences are easy to miss, so check this before ordering. UAR is a low-volume trim variant. Check the part-number sticker against the supported list on this page - if the sticker says UAQ, UAS or UAV, use the matching page instead.
Write the code down - the same four digits work for the life of the unit.
