This video will show the process of fixing the bubbles that formed in the Uconnect 8.4 used in Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler products years 2017-2019. I did it after researching on the forums online. Be advised I do not do this professionally and if you are doing it is at your own risk, I did it as a DIY and to help others having the same issue as myself. The videos were made 2 weeks ago I wanted to make sure it worked for sometime before posting the video. Always remember to be gentle with the screen and digitizer those are very deliciated parts. Also make sure you have your radio Code handy just in case before dismantling your radio, your car should recognized it once you put back your radio automatically but there is always the possibility of that not happening. If anyone has more experience in this process feel free to comment for better ways to fix this problem and to help everyone out. Thank you.

Good man whatever you can input there that made it easier honestly I was going blind trying to figured out until I saw that it worked and posted it. I used alcohol because I was afraid to screw it up and I had no money for a new screen or digitizer. I just did my moms which is a 2019 limited and that is different you do have to change the screen I don’t know why Chrysler made it even more difficult. Glad it worked!!!

I work at Chrysler btw and yes this issue should've been a recall no doubt about it. My gfs 18 Jeep Grand Cherokee has this issue and it's spreading to the point now it needs reoli. Was going to install a whole screen replacement for $500 but I may try this first. Just wasn't sure how well touch would work without the factory adhesive there.

Thank you so much. I didn`t need to replace the anything. I imagine most just need to clean the screens, to rid them of all of that gooey glue and replace them. One tip, If I may. Instead of using alcohol, simply apply "peanut butter" to the glue, wait 2 minutes and simply scrape the residue off with a butter or steak knife (with the intentions of not scratching the glass), then dishwashing liquid, then alcohol, or glass cleaner to finish up (that whole process will take minutes, not hours.

I would have loved to seen you do the double sided tape method. I can’t understand why so many ppl who do these quick and easy fix videos never show the fix part of the video. I saw another video of someone that he said he didn’t even use a glue or tape and just put the new digitizer laying over the lcd panel , which to me makes no sense cause you have to have something that fuses or bonds them together. But I could be wrong I just want to fix this. This should have been a recall
@Indigo_travels_usa
@Indigo_travels_usa 7 ай бұрын
Yes that would make no sense the new digitizer has nothing to attach it to the screen so you would definitely get the ghost touches in there. Unfortunately I’m an amateur at recording so I did what I could. But basically the double sided tape I put the edge of the tape in the inside black edge of the digitizer and whatever is left outside tge digitizer I trim off. I don’t know if that makes sense I try my best. Is a long video but I do try to go step by step on it

Great tutorial! I have the same issue and agreed, is completly anoying. A couple of questions if I can. First, don't you need to put any glue bewteen the screen and the digitizer? And second, you mentioned on the description to have the "radio Code" handy, how do you get it? Thanks alot for this video it really helps!
@Indigo_travels_usa
@Indigo_travels_usa Жыл бұрын
Good questions. First question. You don’t need the glue anymore, there is a few millimeters of space so the air in that space acts as the glue would, and the space between the digitizer and the screen would be equal all around since the double tape is the same thickness so no glue needed just be careful with the digitizer don’t scratch it take your time. For the second question. Your car recognizes you radio when you plug it in and it does its setup automatically because the radio is VIN certified meaning it recognizes your car only when you plug it back in your car. Worst case senario if it does ask you for a pin make sure before putting the radio back in place write down the radio serial number which is in the back of the radio and you would be able to call Chrysler and get the code for the radio. But, like I said the car does recognizes your radio when you plug it in. I just wasn’t sure at the time I made the video if you needed the code but you do not.

So my question is does the digitizer just lay over the LCD panel and you only used the tape to glue the metal frame to the radio ? So the gorilla tape doesn’t go on the LCD panel it’s just used to hold the metal frame onto the radio ?

If you go to minute 13:58 you’ll see that it goes on the digitizer not the metal frame the metal frame has no glue on it, it has clips that hold it. Watch the entire thing I know is long but it works if you do it properly. Good luck

i used a fishing string because it is more difficult to break. I don't think the glue has anything to do with the electrical system is just there to isolate the digitizer from the screen itself and act as a heat barrier.

@@Indigo_travels_usa thank you for your reply. I know they have special tungsten or titanium filaments that the smart phone mechanics use to separate glass in screen replacement. I thought that’s how it came about . Your idea beats the plastic separator tools, hands down. I didn’t think the “glue “ was conductive in this case because I know of the heat barrier, but had to ask. Do you have any knowledge of Subaru digitizer replacement? Respectfully

My '17 Charger SRT is delaminating and I'm thinking about doing your repair or getting a new screen for $400. Some have used thicker Gorilla tape. You used the 15lb tape...they make a 38lb tape. Do you think that would have helped by putting a little more distance between the digitizer and the screen? With a little more distance it wouldn't be so sensitive. Thanks.
@Indigo_travels_usa
@Indigo_travels_usa Жыл бұрын
I would not recommend it more space = lessinput to the screen you may end up with spots that will not have inputs in the screen. Remember the oem glue has only a few mm from screen to digitizer that’s why as soon as you get the bubbles the ghost inputs appear. The strength of the tape is not problematic remember you have a metal plate that holds the digitizer and the screen

@@Indigo_travels_usa thank you. I figured out the Ac. Now the issue is no volume. The radio works but skips only at volume 4 anything higher or lower it dosnt play at all. I’m trying to fight my warranty company and Chrysler/Stellantis for this. The volume thing was happening from before I cleaned it and I figured it had to do with the delamination which it did but after cleaning Everything works perfect just the volume and skipping so it maybe the mother board so I’m trying to get an exchange without having to pay being this delamination is their fault. I know a lot of people fought but only a few won and the only reason it’s not a recall is because no one was hurt because it didn’t cause an accident but mines was at the point where it was switching transmission modes already that’s why I decided it’s time to clean. Anyways thanks for your video it helped alot

So basically it's the digitizer reinstalled without the factory glue the full the void between the LCD and the digitizer to help with touch input.
@Indigo_travels_usa
@Indigo_travels_usa 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah the factory glue in the middle basically allows the screen to have some space from the digitizer so phantom inputs dont happen as well as acting as a thermal barrier. Bubbles mean that glue went somewhere else usually drips down. Now without the glue the digitizer touches the screen, making the phantom inputs. But if you put the tape like I did only around the digitizer then the space between the digitizer and the screen becomes air but is still close enough for your finger inputs to work but for the digitizer not to touch the screen and it works as a thermal barrier as well. Hope it helps, and I'm still rocking lol so it has worked flawless all the time. Just be very careful with the digitizer is very delicate and expensive just be gentle with it it will take time to take the old glue off but slow is the speed to go on this.
