Does anyone have the files for the UConnect 7" radio?

Reason I'm asking is I purchased the 7" UConnect radio for my JL and upgraded from the 5" radio. The problem is I won't be getting the correct downloads from the UConnect radio when I type in my VIN#.

Does anyone know if I can go to a dealer and they can update my VIN# with the 7" UConnect radio so I can receive the updates? Otherwise, I'll have to rely on others to post the download files so I can update manually.

Thanks in advance.

You might call the Uconnect folks and give them the radio ID

Yeah, they told me to go to the dealer and have them update my VIN# with the new radio code. Hopefully there isn't a charge for that :cwl:

Jeep won't do it, period. UConnect won't help either. The only way upgraders are going to get updates is if someone can get the files, upload them online and allow others to download them..

Or find a VIN to use on the UConnect site to download them..

There has got to be an easier way but maybe the reasoning on the dealership side is they don’t want any liability issues if something happens, who knows

I have VIN numbers for every type. I’ll be downloading and hosting files. I’ll post them when they are available.

They haven't been posted yet. Still waiting for them to be loaded to the UConnect website.
If you can find a vin with the 8.4” update that gives the off road pages I’d like to download it. I’m in CO and looks like the update is in the Rust Belt as of now.

Okay, thanks. That is what I was wondering, because Uconnect doesn't seem to have any files--or indicate I need an update--for my (7") VIN.
(even though I have seen other 7" units with higher versions of firmware/software).
Maybe I will start scouring the interwebs for some of the files...
