2018 JLU
Hi.

I have a 2018 JLU that I bought used. It has the 7 inch UConnect. I know the 7 inch doesn't have Off Road pages, but during the time of my SiriusXM trial, Off Road pages were available in the instrument cluster. Now that the trial has ended, the Off Road pages have disappeared.

I've read lots of discussion about how originally there was a 'mistake' where by a SiriusXM subscription was needed in order to get the Off Road pages to work. This was later corrected by a software upgrade to something. All the discussions I have read have centered around getting the Off Road pages to work on an 8 inch Uconnect. My question is, since I know Off Road pages are available in the instrument cluster, even with a 7 inch UConnect, but only with a SiriusXM subscription, is there a bugfix available, to get the Off Road pages working again without the SiriusXM subscription, just as there was for the 8 inch?

Thanks in advance.

I had the 7" (replaced with a Stinger). The Offroad Pages are still in the stack even after I removed the 7" (and SiriusXM). I did not install a SiriusXM receiver for the Stinger. Of course, all Offroad Pages are shown on the Stinger.

You've got something else going on if you aren't seeing the Off Road screens in your cluster. It has nothing to do with SiriusXM. Many people have removed the 7 inch radio for aftermarket and still have access to the Off Road screens.

Right, ORP is not available on 7" but some mistakes made it available in a few cases.

Yes, a 7" screen.

Since you chose to respond to a thread that is over 2 years old, I will add a new response as well.

What I responded to and what was being asked about back then was the off road screen/s not showing in the dash/instrument cluster, which is completely different than Off Road Pages on the 8” radio or the 7” radio. All JLs have a minimal set of off road pages in the dash/instrument cluster.
