For Gooseneck trailers, the connection from the rear
fascia goes to the rear chassis inline.
Gooseneck Trailer Connection
NOTE:
When the 12-way connector goes to the rear chassis,
there is a black cap on the bumper receptacle for
protection.
In order to make the connection from the rear chassis
to the bumper, the cap must be unplugged from the
bumper and put on the rear chassis after making 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 settings 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”.
Inputting Trailer Values
For the Trailer Surround View Camera system to function,
all fields must be entered. When a value is needed the
screen will display “Required”.
When the Trailer Type button is selected two options are
available: Conventional or Gooseneck/Fifth Wheel.
