AUX Plug in Dash?

[DGamelin]

On a 2022 there is a AUX plug in the dash owners manual says it is a 12v but doesn't say what type of jack it takes. Does any one know?

Your picture is of USB ports, they are 5v
On my 2020 the 12v cigar lighter type power plug is in the tray on top of the dash. Have they changed that in the 2022?

In the in between the USB ports is an auxiliary port (AUX) in the picture, that is the one I am looking for. My a 12V cigar lighter is on top of the dash. It should look like one of these.

USB-C is the oval one... USB-A is the rectangle one. Both give 5V out for charging... Usually 1A but sometimes 2A, not sure of the exact specs for yours.

OK, I see now, marked AUX. That's new, not sure what the answer may be

You made the same mistake as I. He's talking about the RCA looking port between the USB ports. Blow it up, it's marked AUX.

Aux input for the stereo. It’s a standard 3.5mm audio jack.

Page 280 of the owners manual talks about it.

The only 12V plugs are the cigarette lighter style.

Ah ha! Makes sense.

It doesn't matter after all. I took it apart and it has no wires hooked to the AUX port, the jack is there but not connected. I guess I didn't buy enough options. Thanks anyways guys.

Wow! A good thing you checked. You could have chased a "not working" case for a long time and a lot of frustration. One would think they would remote the jack and plug the hole if it wasn't a working option. Or, build it without the jack.

 

[DGamelin]

O' it's frustration I have been looking for this anwser all week. I am guessing there is more then 1 owners manual, it's not on my page 280. I will just use one of the auxiliaries switchs.

If it doesn’t work take it back to the dealership, it’s standard on the trucks and if installed should be operational.

Page 280 references the digital owners manual.Under multimedia.

On my old truck that jack was an input for a music source to the audio system such as an MP3 player. Can't find one on my new Tradesman...

They stopped putting it in the fold down center console on the Tradesman? I guess they figure that everyone uses Bluetooth now. I use the port in my console with a Bluetooth receiver to connect audio to the truck. If you've got a jack that's on the dash and not working, I'd be in sales office to demand that it be working! It's there and should be operational!

I have a center hole on my tradesman

 

[odinjunior]

I'll look again but I'm sure that I didn't see one.

My '21 Tradesman has the port. Maybe part of a package?

According to this it is standard on every truck, and should be by the drivers right knee.

I really don't ever want to go back to that dealer again. I have had all the fun buying a new truck that I can stand.

Have you tried it to make sure it does or doesn’t work?

Any dealer can work on warranty stuff.
