For Gooseneck trailers, the connection from the rear
fascia goes to the rear chassis inline.
NOTE:
•
When the 12-way connector goes to the rear chas-
sis, there is a black cap on the bumper receptacle
for protection.
•
In order to make the connection from the rear chas-
sis to the bumper, the cap must be unplugged from
the bumper and put on the rear chassis after mak-
ing the 12-way connection and vice versa.
Once the Trailer Surround View Module and cameras
are installed and the trailer is connected to the vehicle
via the 12-way connector, the Trailer Surround Camera
settings can be accessed. The Trailer Surround Camera
settings can be accessed through Uconnect Settings by
pressing the Trailer button in the Trailer Settings or the
Camera Settings. The system requires input of the
trailer dimensions prior to use of the system.
NOTE:
•
If a trailer is connected but the trailer dimensions
have not been entered in the Trailer Surround set-
tings page, the system will default to the settings
page.
•
If a trailer is not connected and any button is
selected, a message will appear: “Connect Trailer
Equipped With Trailer Surround View System”.
