Ken is back at it fixing his #Ram1500 in sunny (and scorching) Florida! If you're dealing with that frustrating delaminated 8.4" UConnect screen in your 2018, or newer, Ram truck causing ghost touches, bubbling, or even accidental 911 calls, you're not alone—it's a common headache for Ram owners. In this video, "DIY How to Replace Delaminated 8.4" UConnect Touch Screen in 2018+ Ram Trucks - End Ghost Touches," Ken walks you through the entire process step by step on his 2018 #Dodge Ram 1500 #Laramie. He shares his real-life story: from a shady company backing out on a free screen, to his awesome wife gifting him one for his birthday, and grabbing tools from ⁨@harborfreight⁩ to tackle the job at night (shoutout to ⁨@JC-LGL⁩ for the bright work light!). We'll cover disconnecting the battery for safety, popping off panels, dealing with those sticky gel glue messes that melt in the heat, swapping the screen, troubleshooting connections, and testing it out. Ken's brutally honest about his mistakes—like losing screws and spending hours fixing glitches—so you know what to expect and avoid the pitfalls. This #DIY fix saved Ken from a $2,000 dealership bill, and it could do the same for you!
