Can't Find Your Unit's S/N? Follow These Steps for Chrysler Voyager 2016
The initial step is finding the radio serial.
Many drivers assume the code depends on the Chrysler model or year, but actually, the unlock process relies on the unique radio unit's serial number.
This number identifies the exact head unit installed in your Chrysler Voyager.
This is actually better, because if you have bought an aftermarket radio, the VIN or other Chrysler-specific data wouldn't be of much use.
Depending on the radio version used, you can see the serial directly from the screen or by checking the label on the radio chassis.
Radios Offered in the 2016 Voyager
2016 was the final model year of the Lancia Voyager in continental Europe; the Chrysler Voyager nameplate continued in Canada and other right-of-Atlantic markets on the same RT minivan platform. The radio fleet stayed unchanged - the Uconnect 8.4 RA3/RA4 platform never came to this minivan. The base RES (Media Center 130) AM/FM/CD radio is non-touchscreen with a small one-line display, hard preset buttons and rotary knobs - no NAV key, no large screen, no factory Bluetooth out of the box. The volume option RBZ (430 MyGIG) is a 6.5-inch color touchscreen with a glossy black bezel and hard keys for Radio, Media, Controls, More and Phone flanking the screen, with no NAV soft key because it has no navigation hardware. The top-tier RHB (430N MyGIG) uses the same 6.5-inch screen and bezel as the RBZ; tell it apart by the NAV soft key on the home menu, the Garmin boot logo and the 28GB internal hard drive. On Lancia Voyager builds the navigation MyGIG was sometimes ordered as RHW with European mapping and market-specific tuners. The optional rear-seat DVD entertainment system - a 9-inch flip-down overhead screen with separate DVD player in the lower dash and wireless headphones - was independent of the head unit and orderable on higher trims.
View Your Serial on the Radio Screen
Try the following for your 2016 Chrysler Voyager:
The 2016 Chrysler Voyager — the entry-level Chrysler minivan — features the Uconnect 8.4" Classic (RA3). Despite being the lower-trim minivan, the RA3 Dealer Mode is supported.
Press and hold Climate Up, Climate Down, and Front Defrost simultaneously for 5 seconds with ignition in ACC or ON. Dealer Mode opens. Navigate to: System Info → Radio Part Info → Serial Number.
View the S/N by Pulling Out the Unit
If the serial number cannot be accessed on-screen, use the pull-out method.
Most Chrysler Voyager OEM radios include a tag with the serial number printed on the chassis.
Basic process:
- Shut down the car.
- Lift away surrounding mounting frame.
- Release clips holding the radio.
- Slide outward to inspect the label.
If Dealer Mode is unavailable on the 2016 Chrysler Voyager, remove the RA3 from the minivan center console.
- Remove the bezel panel with a plastic trim tool.
- Remove the 4 Torx T20 mounting screws.
- Pull the unit out to access the serial label on the top or side of the radio chassis.
Manufacturer Label Inspection
The factory head units offered on the 2016 Voyager - typically the RES single-CD radio, the RBZ MyGIG 430 (6.5-inch touchscreen), the RHB / RHW MyGIG 430N (6.5-inch touchscreen with navigation), and the optional REZ rear-seat DVD entertainment module - all keep their serial on a printed chassis label. These legacy units do not expose the serial through the screen, so the head unit has to come out for the sticker to be read.
Safety first. Turn the ignition off, remove the key, disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait several minutes before touching wiring. Avoid the yellow airbag/SRS connectors entirely and use plastic trim tools so nothing shorts or breaks.
Tools you will need. Plastic trim removal kit, Phillips screwdriver, small Torx bit set, flashlight, and a 7 mm socket on hand for any deeper retaining bolts.
Removal overview. Ease the centre stack bezel forward at the lower edge using a plastic pry tool and work up the sides; on the RT minivan dash the bezel is held by four friction clips with no visible screws on the bezel itself. With the four clips released, lay the bezel on a soft cloth (it does not need to be unplugged from any harness to do the job). Remove the four screws securing the radio chassis to the dash bracket, slide the radio forward and disconnect the antenna lead and the multi-pin power/data harnesses at the rear.
Where the serial sits. The serial number is printed on a barcode/sticker label on the top or side of the radio chassis next to the part number and supplier markings. The REZ rear-seat DVD module wears the same kind of printed label on its own case.
Tips. Photograph the label up close in good light and double-check ambiguous characters such as 0/O and 1/I before submitting the serial.

Serial Number Format Guide for 2016 Chrysler Voyager
The factory radios fitted to the 2016 Voyager are legacy Mopar head units rather than the later Uconnect 8.4 platform, so the prefix on the chassis label depends on which radio was specified and which supplier built it.
RBZ MyGIG 430 and RHB / RHW MyGIG 430N
These Mitsubishi-built MyGIG units typically print an alphanumeric serial on the case sticker. Common Mopar/MyGIG prefixes seen on this generation include TM9 alongside other T-style codes. The serial usually runs as a continuous block of letters and digits with no dashes or spaces.
RES (single-CD)
The base RES head unit usually carries a Mopar-style serial on a chassis sticker. Treat the printed label on the unit itself as the authoritative reference and copy each character exactly.
REZ rear-seat DVD module
The optional REZ overhead DVD entertainment unit also wears a printed chassis label with its own serial. If codes are needed for that module, transcribe its serial separately and avoid guessing unclear characters.
Inputting the Security Code
Once the system gives you 2016 Chrysler Voyager unlock code from the serial number, you're ready to reactivate the radio.
Many drivers hesitate at this stage because input methods can look different across radio versions, but it's usually simple.
When the radio shows ENTER CODE, it means the unit is waiting for the correct numbers.
In-depth Input Instructions for Voyager 2016
To unlock the 2016 Chrysler Voyager Uconnect 8.4":
- Turn ignition to ON. Screen displays "ENTER CODE".
- Tap each digit of your 4-digit code on the on-screen keypad.
- Radio auto-confirms after the 4th digit. No confirm button needed.
3 wrong entries cause a 60-minute lockout. Keep ignition ON. Switching off restarts the timer.
Step-by-Step Code Input Guide
Once the unlock code has been retrieved for a 2016 Voyager radio, it can be entered straight at the head unit - no scan tool or dealer visit is required.
Limited attempts. Mopar head units only accept a small number of incorrect tries (commonly three) before going into a long lockout/WAIT state, so confirm each digit before pressing it.
Entering the code. Place the ignition in RUN/ACC so the radio powers up but the engine stays off. Wait for the display to show CODE, Enter Anti-Theft Code, or a similar prompt. On the RBZ/RHB/RHW MyGIG (6.5-inch) units, type the digits using the on-screen number pad and confirm with the on-screen OK/Enter button. On the base RES head unit, press the numbered preset buttons (1-6) in sequence and confirm with the tune/menu knob or labelled enter button as prompted on the display.
If a wrong code was entered. If WAIT or a similar timeout appears after the failed-attempt limit is reached, leave the radio powered with the ignition in RUN for a continuous 30 minutes before trying the correct code again.

Why Did the Radio Lock and Ask for a Code?
The 2016 Chrysler Voyager radio locks automatically whenever the battery is disconnected. The lock applies to all Uconnect Chrysler minivans.
Most common cause: battery replacement or disconnect. Other causes:
- Failed radio fuse
- Buying the Voyager second-hand without a code
- Battery disconnect for repairs
- Battery drained from sitting unused
Code comes from the radio serial number — not the VIN.
