Default Is my UConnect working properly?

just installed UConnect 82211004 in my 2008 wrangler with single disc RES head unit...

Is there any way to scroll through songs? I thought I read that you can use the tune/scroll knob to scroll through the songs. It works when I'm in list mode but as soon as I select a play list or album it just plays the first song without letting me select which song to play

I have to use the two buttons on the top left to go to the next or previous track.

Also when I go to a playlist and hit play it doesn't start from the first track. It starts in the middle of the playlist.

Did I not get it starscanned properly? or is this normal?

What? No, I'm asking HOW do you scroll through songs?

Once I select a playlist or album it immediately starts playing one of the songs in the playist. It doesn't let me select which song. While in a playlist or album turning the tune/scroll wheel does nothing.

Sounds like normal behavior...before I had the MyGig, I had the RES w Uconnect/ipod and it worked just like you're describing.

That sucks though, why would they not let you scroll through the songs with the tune/scroll wheel?? And why is my Uconnect starting with the 4th song down in every playlist?

Would the REQ (6 disc) head unit work better?

I had both RES and REQ, functionality was pretty much the same between them.
