BCI-CH41 (v2) Reverse Camera Input and Navigation Unlock Interface for Chrysler / Dodge / Jeep / RAM Vehicles Introduction & Features The BCI-CH41 will program your Chrysler / Dodge / Jeep / RAM radio to allow the addition of a reverse camera or Rear Media input if the vehicle is not equipped with these features from the factory (reverse camera and video source sold separately). The BCI-CH41 will also allow the factory navigation features of your radio to be used by the passenger at anytime. The interface can also be configured to add even more features, such as: Blind Spot Cameras, Front Camera, Eco Mode Memory, Auto Start / Stop Memory, Sport Mode Memory, Remote Start Climate Restore, Steering Wheel Control (SWC) swap, EQ Presets, and three programmable 12v outputs. The BCI-CH41 also has on-demand activation of rear or front camera. Important Notes 1. These instructions only apply to firmware version 14 and harness version 3. The versions can be found on a small white sticker on the interface and harness. 2. RAM trucks equipped with a manual transmission will not support the forced Reverse Camera or Reverse Output Trigger features. 3. The Jeep Cherokee and Chrysler 200 will not support the addition of Reverse Camera or Rear Media input. 4. 2017 Dodge Charger, Challenger, Chrysler 300 and vehicles equipped with the 5” screen do not support the addition of Rear Media Mode. 5. It is very important to follow the exact sequence of installation steps as listed below. Failure to do so will result in the interface not working as intended. 6. If you change the DIP switch settings, you must disconnect and reconnect power for the change to take effect 7. The navigation unlock feature must be activated by the SWC every time the key is cycled. 8. The VS41 video switcher, AVS21 A/V switcher, or possibly both, must be used in order to use more than one video source with the BCI-CH41. 9. If navigation is being used and the camera input is engaged UNDER 20 MPH, it will affect the navigation guidance until the camera input is switched off. 10. Vehicles without audio SWC (located on the back of the steering wheel) will not support the Navigation Unlock or SWC Swap features. 11. You cannot force the front camera when the reverse camera is active as reverse camera always takes priority.

If you have more than one source, the AVS21 or any other universal video switcher must be used (sold separately). Connect the male connector on the BCI-CH41 harness to the factory radio. Turn the ignition to the on position. Plug the 4-pin and 20-pin plugs on the BCI-CH41 harness into interface connector 1 and 2. Both LEDs will blink green while the module is initializing. Once initialized, LED 1 will turn solid red and LED 2 will begin blinking green. If LED 2 blinks red, there is a problem with the data connection to the factory radio. In this case please refer to the troubleshooting section on page 8. Turn the vehicle off, shut the doors and lock the vehicle with the factory keyfob. Wait 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, turn vehicle back on and test BCI operation (see operation section on page 4). Sometimes it may take more than one sleep cycle to engage all features, especially the performance page feature. Connecting a VS41 (sold separately) If you are adding a front camera and two blind spot cameras, or any combination of the three, to the factory radio, a VS41 (sold separately) can be used in conjunction with the BCI. Follow the example below to make all inputs work accordingly through the one camera input on the factory radio. Connect the 10-pin harness from the VS41 harness into the Expansion Port on the BCI-CH41. Do not manually wire the trigger wires, or power and ground leads, when using the Expansion Port connector. When the appropriate CAN-Bus signals are detected (ie. reverse, or turn signal) the corresponding camera input will be automatically selected, and it’s video feed will be routed to the factory radio display.
