Question for the Tech`s : I have an 09' Liberty Rocky Mountain Edition. It has a Standard Steering Wheel, w/o Audio Controls ( as with the Limited Edition ) I`ve had the VIN # checked and I`m told the Stereo in my vehicle is compatible with the Steering Wheel w/Audio Controls. Question is will it be a plug n' play ?? , if I purchase a New Steering Wheel w/audio controls ?? . . . . . No Dealership I`ve spoken with seems to have an answer . . . . Any info. would be greatly appreciated . . . Thanks, . . .


Barretta !

Have a parts guy check and see if your steering column assembly is pre-wired with interconnecting harness from steering wheel controls to the radio. You could also remove your radio to check back behind there to see if there's an unused wiring plugged in to the radio. If the wiring is already in place, then it probably would be "plug and play". If not, then you'd need buy/make whatever wiring harness assembly runs from the steering wheel to the back of the radio. Spend some time at the Jeep parts counter making them dig through various diagrams and part numbers and making print-outs for you as needed to figure out your options.

yes, . . . that`s just what the parts guy was thinking, . . .As it`s in storage until Oct. , I may do a little excavating into the dash/radio as you stated ? . . .


Barretta !

I just got in from pulling the radio, and yes, . . . . it has ( 2 ) empty cavities. . . . 10 pin ?. . . and a 24 pin ??

Barretta !

I don't readily have any info regarding back plug-in connections. You may want to post which radio you have (e.g. RER, REN, etc.). Also, some info I found (for 2008's) mentioned 10-pin and 22-pin but not 24-pin. Are you sure its 24-pin?

If its a uConnect/myGig, then you should check this website.

If your steering column is pre-wired, then inside your steering wheel there should be a small loose connector for the left and one for the right side of your steering wheel. You check inside your steering wheel for loose connectors.

Sorry I don't have something more definitive.

Thanks for all the help, . . . and yes, I do have the " uConnect/myGig " radio. My vision is somewhat that of a "Log" . . . . . .I`m not too sure of the "24" but, the "10" is correct. Too small to tell ? I`ll have to look into the "wiring harness" ?? . . . Thanks again !!
