2021 JLUR. Little backstory. Had lift, new tires, RSE sliders, and re-location bracket installed earlier this week. With the tires, the shop added the tazer to adjust the tire size. With the re-location bracket, I wasn't entirely happy with how high the tire sits now. It's the RC version, and I have 35's. Read around, and some people said 35's would fit without a bracket, so figured I'd try taking it off today and see if it did work.
That didn't work, so had to put it back on. Will be shopping around for a better solution...
Afterwards though, my radio is cutting in and out (doesn't matter the source...phone, sirius, FM, etc...) with what sounds like a very "noisy" signal, and the rear and front cameras aren't working.
I've found other threads about uconnect updates, which sounds very similar, it's just odd to me it happened at the same time I was messing around with the camera in the back. Although, I didn't know if it worked before that today, as I didn't drive it until after I did that. I took it back off, doesn't seem there's any shorts, and the camera is connected. I looked on the uconnect website and my VIN shows now available uconnect updates.
I thought maybe it was the tazer, so I un-married it and that didn't help either. I did pull the fuse to the radio, and did notice after that the quality of audio got better, it's not "noisy" but it still cuts out every few seconds.
I'm at a loss at this point. For one, I don't see how even if I did something to the camera, it'd be affecting the radio output. It doesn't *seem* like an update, but maybe there's one and the website isn't reporting it, and I'm just unlucky in my timing with messing with the spare tire bracket.
I'm going out on my first trail day in this thing bright and early in the morning, and a bit bummed that the cameras aren't working and I can't even listen to music. I've read some people just wait and try the next day and it's fixed. Hoping that's the case.
Any other ideas?
