Your code in three steps
No VIN, no paperwork, no appointment - the serial number off the radio is the only thing we need.
- 1 Get the serial off the radio On the factory sticker on the radio housing, next to the barcode. Most units have to come out of the dash - release keys cost a few dollars.
- 2 Put it in the form on the left Just the serial and your email. The validator runs before the payment step.
- 3 Get the code The code appears the moment the payment clears, and a copy goes to your email. Keep it - the same four digits work for the life of the radio.
Covered by a full refund if the code turns out not to fit your unit.
Your radio carries a label like this one. The serial is the code printed on it.
Confirm Your Radio Model
Before ordering a radio code it is important to confirm the exact model. Compare the design, controls, display and features below with the unit in your dashboard.
Typical identification features:
- 8.4" touchscreen in the centre of the dash
- No navigation tile on the home screen - no maps installed
- Built for the Canada market
- Sales code UCQ on the chassis label
- Serial number starting with TM9
It is the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ when:
- the chassis label carries the UCQ sales code
- the serial on the label starts with TM9
- the vehicle was built between 2017-2020
- the screen is the 8.4" touchscreen fitted to the Uconnect 8.4
UCQ boots in English and French by default. If your screen only offers English/Spanish, you likely have UAQ (US) rather than UCQ. No NAV tile - if maps draw, you have UCV.
Where to Find Your Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ Serial Number
The code is calculated from the radio's own serial number, so that number is the only thing you need before ordering. It is printed on the chassis label of the unit itself, not in the vehicle documents.
On the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ: Chassis top label. Removal required - three 7mm bolts.
Getting to the label:
- Slide the radio out of the dash - most units need a pair of release keys, which cost a few dollars online.
- Read the serial from the factory sticker on the housing, beside the barcode.
- Type it into the form exactly as printed, with no spaces or dashes.
Where the label sits on this radio
What Is the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ Radio?
The Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ is a dealer-installed Chrysler audio and multimedia unit. Alongside standard radio and audio playback it may include touchscreen controls, Bluetooth, CD/DVD playback or factory navigation, depending on how the vehicle was specified.
Uconnect 8.4 UCQ is the Canadian-market Panasonic 8.4-inch non-navigation head unit (the "C" middle letter denotes Canada). Same 8.4-inch hardware as UAQ but with bilingual English/French menus and Canadian FM-step settings.
Between 2017-2020 the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ appeared across a number of Chrysler models, usually on vehicles using the Panasonic multimedia platform. It stayed in production long enough to become a common sight in that generation of cars.
Features you may find on the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ:
8.4" touchscreen
AM/FM radio
Bluetooth hands-free and audio streaming
USB media playback
SiriusXM satellite radio*
Steering wheel control support
Anti-theft security code
*Availability varies with the vehicle configuration.
The Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ carries the same anti-theft protection as most factory units. Once power is cut - a flat battery, a battery swap, or the radio being removed - it will ask for the original code before it comes back to life.

Look for the part number on the radio's identification sticker, typically beside the serial number. Any reference listed here is covered by this service.
Once the code arrives
It takes under 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.
- Key in the code, one digit at a time, left to right.
- Verification happens by itself once the fourth digit is in.
- A correct code clears the lock screen and the audio comes straight back.
Troubleshooting the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UCQ
Too many wrong attempts
A countdown means the anti-theft system is holding the unit. Leave the ignition on until it clears. 30-minute WAIT countdown after three wrong codes.
The label is not where I expected
It is printed on the housing, so the unit normally has to come forward to read it. Chassis top label. Removal required - three 7mm bolts.
Why it happened again
Expected behaviour: the security system trips again whenever power is cut. Battery service, dead battery, 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. UCQ boots in English and French by default. If your screen only offers English/Spanish, you likely have UAQ (US) rather than UCQ. No NAV tile - if maps draw, you have UCV.
Write the code down - the same four digits work for the life of the unit.
What Owners Usually Ask
What Is Included
The original code on screen seconds after you pay, emailed to you as well.
Full money-back guarantee if the code does not open your radio.
Available 24/7 - no appointment, no dealer visit, no towing.
Works again and again - the code stays valid for the life of the radio.
