Which radio is in your Dodge Caliber?
Dodge fitted the Caliber from 2006 to 2011 with Chrysler-group radios, MyGIG touchscreens on higher trims. Radios do get swapped, so go by the serial: the free check reads it for you.
How to find your Dodge Caliber radio serial number
On the label
- Take the radio out.
- Read the 4-character serial on the label on the radio.
Photograph the label rather than copying it by hand — 0 and O, 1 and I are easy to mix up.
It comes out with a pair of radio removal keys. Which keys, and where they go: how to remove a car radio.
