Which version of Gracenotes do you have? I can't find an update file for this radio anywhere.

Nice writeup! thanks for posting that up. Now all I need to do is find one for about $1k and I'm set.
where did you guys find your NAV units? EBay has some that are used and cheaper with a warranty, lockpic, etc. wondering if I should go that route vs almost 2K from the dealer.

keep your eyes open, it may take a little time, but you will find one for well under 1K! Don't pay dealer cost of 2k unless you have a lot of $$ you don't knw what to do with.

I did the same thing when I picked up my '12 JKU at the beginning of November. However, my splash screen still displays the Chrysler logo a good month and a half after installing the RBZ. Is there anything I can do to "help" the unit see that it's now in a Jeep?

After speaking with a few other people, I don't believe that the splash screen on the RBZ will change itself like it does on other radios. I was told by another person who swapped in an RBZ that they went to the dealer and had them associate the VIN with the radio and the logo changed. I haven't called to check on this yet, but he mentioned that it was only around $20 to have it done.

Jeep splash screen
I just put in a used RBZ, same problem with the splash screen (still has Uconnect Chrysler Logo at startup). The guy I bought it from (OEM Autoparts) assured me it would change, but no luck yet... I've tried updates, disconnecting the battery cable for 20 min., etc.,,, Has anyone had any luck with this?

From the research I have done, it appears that the RBZ radio will NOT change the splash screen on its own like the others do. I have heard from a couple of people who have told me that they had the dealer associate their radio with their VIN and the splash screen changed. I just received an email from Sirius and it shows my vehicle as a "Chrysler Town and Country". I am going to call a couple of dealers next week to see if they will reprogram it for me. If I remember correctly, one of the people who had it done said it was around $20 to have it changed at the dealer.
