Major differences between the RHB and RER/RHR navigation radios

Chrysler Group created the RHB radio (430N) as a lower priced alternative to the top of the line RER/RHR (730N) navigation radios. The 430N is priced several hundred dollars less than the 730N - but it does not have all of the features.

Major differences:

Graphics: The RHB uses navigation software by Garmin, while the RER/RHR uses navigation software by Navteq. The graphics and some features are different.

Dead Reckoning: When a vehicle doesn't have a clear view of the sky - such as in a tunnel or garage, or when surrounded by tall buildings - all navigation systems lose reception of GPS satellite signals. The 730N has a "dead reckoning" feature which enables it to estimate the current location until the sky is once again visible. (At start-up, it also remembers the vehicles last location, and immediately displays this estimated location until it can read signals for a precise fix). This is also known as "Enhanced GPS". The RHB does not have dead reckoning: it will display a question mark until it can receive GPS satellite signals and identify the current location.

Voice Command: With the 730N, drivers can program a desired destination using Uconnect Voice Command, while the vehicle is in motion. While the voice command is packaged with the 430N on most vehicles (and an option on the rest), it cannot be used to operate the navigation system - the vehicle must be parked so that drivers can enter a destination using the on-screen keyboard.

Traffic: The 730N includes traffic information provided by SIRIUS; the first year's subscription is free. The 430N does not offer this feature. However, the 430N is able to receive the SIRIUS Travel Link service, with helpful information about weather, nearby filling stations and prices, nearby movie theaters and show times, and even sports scores. The RER radio cannot do this, but its replacement model, the RHR, includes the feature.

Split-screen mode: With the 730N you can view music and navigation screens at the same time.

2. Media Center 730N (model RER, discontinued)

Note: The "RER" sales code and "730N" designation was also used for 2008-2010 model year navigation radios. These radios used a low-speed bus system. The 2011 model year RER/730N radios were made for the newer high-speed bus system. The radios are not compatible - you cannot install 2008-2010 RER radios into 2011-up vehicle, and you cannot install 2011 RER radios into prior model year vehicles. The RER/730N radio was replaced by the new RHR/730N radio in January 2011.

Upgrading to the RHR radio


If the vehicle is equipped with a lower line radio and Uconnect hands free module, the vehicles microphone and USB port will not be wired to the new RHR radio, but to the old HFM module. The RHR radio has an internal Uconnect module.

If installing a RHR radio and the vehicle had been equipped with a lower line radio and Uconnect hands free module, install the MOPAR Hand Free Module adaptor wiring harness for Uconnect Hands Free Module (HFM) equipped vehicles (p/n 82211666) and USB cable (p/n 68068278AA) for Remote USB Port equipped vehicles. This will allow the mirror mounted microphones and remote USB port to be hooked up to the new RHR radio.

The RHR radio uses a dual satellite radio/GPS antenna. All 2011 model year vehicles that came with a navigation radio will already have this antenna from the factory.


Parts:

1. 82211666 Microphone Harness (for vehicles equipped with mirror mounted microphone) ($108.00 MSRP)

2. 68068278AA USB Jumper Cable (male mini USB connectors on both ends) ($17.35 MSRP)

3. Dual satellite radio/GPS antenna ($?? MSRP)


Installation:

1. Install the Mopar HFM microphone adaptor wiring harness.

2. Install the Mopar USB cable from the rear of RHR radio to the remote USB port inline connector near the shifter assembly in the center console.

Note: It is necessary to unplug the original Uconnect Hands Free module. This will prevent a conflict with the new RHR radio Uconnect Module and old original Hands Free Module.

Note: The VIN must be updated (by a dealer) with the sales code of the added radio in order to enable system functionality.
