iDatalink meets Chrysler

iDatalink's HRN-HRR-CH2 interface harness allows you to connect a new car stereo in select 2004-10 Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles, working in conjunction with iDatalink's Maestro ADS-MRR or ADS-MRR2 module. Once the new car stereo is connected, you'll retain the use of your steering wheel audio controls and your factory amp in these vehicles. If you're installing an iDatalink-ready car stereo, you'll also retain your fader control.

The package includes connectors that plug in between the Maestro module, your Chrysler radio's wiring plugs, and your new car stereo. You'll have to solder or splice together this harness's power/ground, illumination, speaker, and navigation output wires to the corresponding wires on your aftermarket receiver's wiring harness.

An iDatalink-ready car stereo takes full advantage of this harness

If you're buying a compatible iDatalink-ready car stereo, you'll enjoy the outstanding performance of your receiver, plus seamless touchscreen control over most of the factory features in select Chrysler-built vehicles. You'll also appreciate the additional features added by the adapter, including the ability to view performance gauges and vehicle information on the screen with select iDatalink-ready receivers. the module also supplies the outputs (parking brake, reverse, speed sense) you'll need to install a navigation receiver.

Plug directly into your new stereo

This harness also features an in-line head-unit connector harness, which will plug into their new "Head-unit direct" harnesses for select radio brands, which eliminate the need to splice any wires. If you're installing a radio that doesn't work with a "Head-unit direct" harness, you simply cut off the plug and connect the wires to the harness included with your new radio.

Installation note: The HRN-HRR-CH2 harness must be used with the iDatalink Maestro ADS-MRR or ADS-MRR2 module to connect a new car stereo to your Chrysler-made vehicle.

Product highlights:

allows installation of a new receiver in select Chrysler vehicles (also requires the Maestro ADS-MRR or ADS-MRR2 module)
retains the use of your steering wheel audio controls and factory amp in select vehicles
displays engine performance data on touchscreen with iDatalink-ready receivers
works with iDatalink's "Head-unit Direct" harnesses, eliminating need for splicing

Features

Installation Harness: The iDatalink Maestro HRN-HRR-CH2 installation harness greatly simplifies the installation of the Maestro RR or RR2 Car Radio Replacement Interface module (sold separately) in select Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles when replacing your factory radio with an iDatalink Serial Port compatible head unit (can also be used with non-iDatalink compatible head units).

Vehicle Compatibility: Click here for a list of compatible Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep vehicles.
Radio Compatibility: Click here for a list of fully compatible aftermarket head units with an iDatalink Serial Port.

Note: The iDatalink Maestro HRN-HRR-CH2 installation harness requires the purchase of the iDatalink Maestro RR or RR2 (sold separately).

Head Unit Connection: The HRN-HRR-CH2 supports iDatalink's Direct T-Harnesses (sold separately) for direct connection to select iDatalink Serial Port compatible head units, replacing the wiring harness that comes with your aftermarket stereo (some hardwiring may still be required). If connecting to an aftermarket head unit that does not support an iDatalink Direct T-Harness, you'll need to cut off and remove the 20-pin black connector from the HRN-HRR-CH2 harness and splice each wire directly to the aftermarket radio's corresponding wire.

Flashing Module via Weblink Desktop: The iDatalink Maestro RR (ADS-MRR) will need to be loaded with correct firmware before installation. The included USB cable plugs into your computer and allows you to "flash" the Maestro RR with the appropriate firmware to prepare it for installation. Simply download Weblink Desktop (for Windows and Mac) onto your computer to access the appropriate firmware.

Retained Features: The following factory features (if applicable) are retained when replacing your factory radio with a compatible iDatalink Serial Port head unit from using the Maestro RR or RR2 Car Radio Replacement Interface module and HRN-HRR-CH2 installation harness.

Factory Amplifier: Retains factory premium audio amplifier with turn-on, fader, and gain adjustment.
Steering Wheel Controls: Factory steering wheel controls are retained with two function buttons and expandable radio functions.

Note: When installing an aftermarket head unit without the iDatalink Serial Port, only steering wheel control and amplifier turn-on are retained (no fader or gain adjustment).

Extra Features: The following Extra features are added when replacing your aftermarket head unit with a compatible iDatalink Serial Port head unit using the Maestro RR or RR2 Car Radio Replacement Interface module and HRN-HRR-CH1 installation harness.

Vehicle Info: Tire Pressure Display, Battery Voltage Display, Read/Reset Engine Codes, and Door Open Status with Warning.
Gauges: Selectable Performance Gauges, "Track Pack" Gauges, and Read/Reset Check Engine Codes.

Outputs: The HRN-HRR-CH1 provides Navigation, Accessory Power, and Illumination Outputs to make installation simpler.

Navigation: Parking Brake, Reverse Light, and VSS (Vehicle Speed Sense).
Accessory Power Output: 12V/15A Accessory Power Output
Illumination Output: Illumination Output

Audition speakers before you buy

SpeakerCompare simulates the sound of home and car speakers through your headphones. It lets you compare sonic characteristics between speakers so that you can make a more informed shopping decision.

Why selecting your headphones is important

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person. Knowing which model headphones you’re using lets us remove any sonic coloring from your experience.

Two different listening modes

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Our Listening Kit

To help you choose the right speakers, we recommend using Crutchfield’s SpeakerCompare Listening Kit. It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. We’ve carefully chosen the components of this kit to ensure a crystal-clear listening experience. It’s available for a nominal rental fee, and includes a $25 Crutchfield merchandise credit.
