How the process works
The whole process needs one piece of information and two minutes of your time.
- 1 Get the serial off the radio Look for it on the chassis label. The radio normally has to come forward a little - the wiring can stay plugged in.
- 2 Enter it in the form Type the full serial with your email address. A format check flags mistakes before checkout.
- 3 Receive the unlock code You get the digits immediately, with an email copy for safe keeping. Type them into the radio and it plays again.
Money-back guarantee if the code does not unlock your radio.
This is an example label - the one in your car sits in the same place and looks much like it.

Learn More About the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV
Fitted as factory equipment in selected Chrysler models, the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV handles audio playback and vehicle integration from the factory. Depending on the version, it can also add Bluetooth, touchscreen operation, CD/DVD playback, navigation or wider multimedia support.
Uconnect 8.4 UJV is the right-hand-drive/Rest-of-World Panasonic 8.4-inch navigation head unit - RHD UI, built-in maps configured per regional market, NAV tile on the home screen.
Production of the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV ran across 2017-2020, mainly in Chrysler models built around the Panasonic multimedia platform, so plenty of these units are still on the road.
Features you may find on the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV:
8.4" touchscreen
AM/FM radio
Navigation built in, with factory map data
Bluetooth for hands-free calls and music streaming
USB input for music playback
SiriusXM satellite radio*
Steering wheel control support
Anti-theft security code
*Availability varies with the vehicle specification.
The Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV 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.
For the manufacturer's own documentation of this platform, see the official Uconnect site.
Typical Ways a Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV Gets Locked
A locked Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV is nearly always the result of one of four everyday situations, none of which mean anything is broken.
The battery was replaced
Any battery work counts as a power cut to the radio. It re-arms automatically and waits for the original code before playing again.
The code card is long gone
The code card that shipped with the car went missing an owner or two ago. That is not a problem - the code is recovered from the radio's serial, not from any paperwork.
The car was in the garage
Any repair that touches the 12V supply - even for a few minutes - is enough to bring up the code screen on the next start.
You swapped the radio itself
The code does not transfer from one unit to another: the swapped-in unit has a different serial, and that serial is what the code is calculated from.
All four roads lead to the same solution - read the serial off the unit, enter it above, and the original code arrives instantly.
Locating the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV Serial Number
Every Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV 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.
On the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV: Top of the chassis label.
How to reach the number:
- Slide the radio out of the dash - most units need a pair of release keys, which cost very little online.
- Find the printed label on the housing and read the serial off it - it sits beside the barcode.
- Type it into the form exactly as printed, without spaces.

Vehicles Equipped with the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV
| Vehicle Model | Typical Production Years | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2, Wrangler JK (RHD nav trims) | 2017-2020 | |
| Ram 1500 (RHD nav conversions) | 2017-2020 |
Vehicle compatibility can vary between trims, model years and regional versions. Because the same car could leave the factory with different radios, confirm your unit before placing an order.
Once the code arrives
It takes under a minute once you have the four digits.
- Put the key in accessory position so the unit powers up and asks for the code.
- A four-digit keypad appears on the display.
- Key in the code, one digit at a time, left to right.
- The unit checks the code automatically on the last digit.
- Right code in, lock screen gone - the radio is back to its usual self.
Troubleshooting the Chrysler Uconnect 8.4 UJV
The radio is counting down
A countdown means the anti-theft system is holding the unit. Leave the ignition on until it clears. 30-minute WAIT after three wrong codes.
Where the number actually is
The serial is on the unit itself, not in the vehicle papers or on the dashboard. Top of the chassis label.
The radio locked itself again
Expected behaviour: the security system trips again whenever power is cut. Battery service or radio removal.
I am not sure I have the right variant
Close relatives of this unit look almost identical from the driver's seat. UJV has nav; UJQ does not. RHD applications only.
Note the four digits somewhere safe - they are permanent and reusable after any power cut.

"I was afraid this was a scam, but I took a chance and it worked perfectly. I bought the radio from a junkyard on ebay and of course it was locked. The unlock process was very easy and I received the code within seconds."
It's definitely legit. My code came less the 3 minutes and I'm a car dealer and don't have time for scam websites. You guys are now my go to. Thanks
