Serial Number Location Guide for Chrysler 300 2022
The starting step is writing down the radio serial number.
Most people assume the code depends on the Chrysler model or year, but actually, the unlock process depends on the unique radio unit's serial number.
The serial is the key used to calculate the correct unlock code.
This is even better, because if you have bought an aftermarket radio, the VIN or other vehicle-specific data wouldn't help.
Based on the radio version used, you may be able to retrieve the serial directly from the display or by looking at the label on the radio chassis.
2022 Chrysler 300 Factory Radio Options
The 2022 Chrysler 300 keeps the same Uconnect 4 line-up. Three head units across the trim range, separated by screen size and built-in navigation.
- Uconnect 4 (
UAG) - 7-inch non-NAV touchscreen. Standard on the entry 300 Touring trim. Visual ID: 7-inch display centred in the dash bezel opening; Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are supported, but there is no factory NAV app or Map tile on the home screen. - Uconnect 4C (
UAS) - 8.4-inch non-NAV touchscreen. Common on 300S and Touring L when navigation is not optioned. Visual ID: large 8.4-inch screen filling the dash opening edge to edge, CarPlay and Android Auto present, but no Map/NAV tile. - Uconnect 4C NAV (
UAQ) - 8.4-inch touchscreen with built-in GPS. Standard on 300C and 300S Premium, frequently optioned on lower trims. Visual ID: same 8.4-inch bezel and glass as UAS, but the home screen carries a dedicated NAV/Map tile and on-board maps work without a phone.
Quick test: 7-inch screen = UAG, 8.4-inch without a Map tile = UAS, 8.4-inch with a Map tile = UAQ.
View Your S/N on the Radio Display
These are the steps you need to follow for 2022 Chrysler 300:
The 2022 Chrysler 300 — the final generation of Chrysler's full-size rear-wheel-drive sedan — comes with the Uconnect 4C (RA4) with an 8.4" touchscreen. Dealer Mode works differently from older RA3 models: press the bottom-left and bottom-right corners of the physical screen bezel frame simultaneously for 5 seconds (ignition ACC or ON). Dealer Mode opens. Go to: System Info → Radio Part Info → Serial Number.
Access the S/N via the Radio Screen
The 2022 Chrysler 300 continues with the Uconnect 4 line-up - 8.4-inch UAQ NAV, 8.4-inch UAS non-NAV, and the smaller 7-inch UAG. The radio serial number can usually be read on screen via the hidden dealer/diagnostic menu, although newer Uconnect software builds have tightened dealer-mode access on some cars.
Uconnect 4C 8.4 (UAQ / UAS)
- Switch the ignition to RUN/ACC and wait for the Uconnect interface to finish booting.
- Press and hold the driver-side temperature UP, the driver-side temperature DOWN, and the front DEFROST buttons together for roughly 5-10 seconds.
- If the climate-button shortcut does nothing on a software-updated unit, press and hold the bottom-left and bottom-right corners of the screen at the same time for about 5-10 seconds.
- Browse to the radio/system info section to view the 14-character serial number on screen.
- Photograph the screen before transcribing the characters.
Uconnect 4 7-inch (UAG)
- Place the ignition in RUN/ACC and let the screen finish loading.
- Press and hold both temperature UP and temperature DOWN buttons together for around 5-10 seconds to enter the engineering menu.
- Open System Info / Target Main Data to view the serial number on screen.
- Take a photo of the display so the characters can be copied accurately.
Releasing the Radio Unit to Access the S/N on the Tag
If the serial number cannot be accessed through menu, use the pull-out method.
Most Chrysler 300 OEM radios include a tag with the serial number printed on the chassis.
Step-by-Step:
- Turn off the vehicle.
- Lift the dashboard frame surrounding the radio.
- Release the fasteners.
- Move the unit outward to access the label.
The serial number is usually located near the barcode.
If Dealer Mode is unavailable on the 2022 Chrysler 300, remove the RA4 unit from the 300's center stack. The bezel corner press can be blocked after OTA firmware updates.
- Remove the bezel panel with a plastic trim tool.
- Remove the 4 Torx T20 mounting screws.
- Slide the unit out to read the serial label on the top or side of the chassis.
Locate Serial on Chrysler 300's Radio Chassis
If dealer mode has been restricted on the 2022 Chrysler 300 by a Uconnect software update, the printed chassis label remains the next reliable source. The Uconnect 4 head unit on the LD-platform 300 sits in a centre stack closely tied to the climate cluster, so work slowly and methodically.
- Safety first: turn the ignition off, take out the key, disconnect the negative battery terminal, and wait a few minutes before touching wiring; never disturb the yellow airbag/SRS connectors and use plastic trim tools to avoid shorts and broken clips.
- Tools you will need: plastic trim removal kit (a Mopar C-4755 trim stick or equivalent), Phillips and small Torx bit set, 7mm/10mm socket set, flashlight.
- Pop the centre instrument panel bezel free using a plastic pry tool starting at the lower edge and working up the sides; on the LD 300 this bezel also carries the A/C-heater control and clock connectors.
- Unclip the climate and clock harnesses at the rear of the bezel before setting the trim aside on a clean cloth.
- Remove the mounting fasteners (typically four screws, two upper and two lower) that secure the radio cage to the dash support bracket.
- Slide the radio rearward and disconnect the antenna lead and the multi-pin power/data harness on the back.
- The serial number sits on a printed barcode/sticker label on the top or side of the radio chassis, next to the part number and supplier markings.
- Photograph the label and double-check ambiguous characters such as 0/O, 1/I and B/8 before submitting the serial. If you are not comfortable working around airbag wiring or the integrated climate cluster, have a professional installer take the unit out for you.

S/N Patterns and Prefixes
The factory radios on the 2022 Chrysler 300 follow the standard Mopar/Uconnect serial style. The exact prefix depends on the Uconnect tier shipped with the car and the supplier (Visteon, Continental, Harman or Panasonic) that built the unit.
Uconnect 4C 8.4 (UAQ / UAS)
- Typically printed as a 14-character alphanumeric string on the chassis label.

Uconnect 4 7-inch (UAG)
- Usually carries a Mopar/Harman or Panasonic-style serial on the chassis sticker, so the label on the unit itself is the authoritative reference.

Entering Your Unlock Code
Once you have the serial number and generated the unlock code, the next part is entering it into your radio.
Chrysler factory radios display a locked screen when ready for input.
The process is simple, but button layouts and confirmation methods may change depending on the radio version installed in your 300.

What Caused the Radio to Lock?
The 2022 Chrysler 300 RA4 locks automatically after battery is disconnected. It's a factory theft deterrent — a disconnected radio won't work without the code.
Typical cause: battery replacement or disconnect. Other causes:
- Failed fuse after electrical work
- Buying the 300 pre-owned without a known code
- Battery disconnect for service
- Battery drained from not driving
Code is derived from the radio serial number — not the VIN.
