    Transmission Temp Gauge via OBD2 Scan Tool

    That setup would suit me fine, who makes that gauge? I have seen some fairly expensive gauges that derive the Transmission temps from the OBD port, was that one expensive?

    Transmission Temp Gauge via OBD2 Scan Tool

    Well, after a lot of reading on Forums and on the web Chrysler simply does not release their proprietary PID's to the public nor to software developers unless a hefty price is paid....at least that is what I can gather. It has been suggested by others that the OBD2 app developers that do...

    Transmission Temp Gauge via OBD2 Scan Tool

    Thanks OCDTech! I have already bought a VEEPEAK bluetooth adapter because it was recommended by OBD Fusion app, which was the app I was going to use, but after a conversation with them they informed me that (like you mentioned) they did not offer the enhanced data for Chrysler, and thus their...

    Transmission Temp Gauge via OBD2 Scan Tool

    Hey Thanks! Great idea that I will take a close look at. I am still in hope that someone will be able to tell me how to get the Scan Tool and App to pick up the Tranny Temps.....surely it is possible!

    Transmission Temp Gauge via OBD2 Scan Tool

    I drive a 2007 Ram 1500 5.7. I have searched everywhere that I know for information on using an OBD2 Scan Tool that transmits via Bluetooth to an iPad App which will create a Dashboard which will show my Transmission Temperatures. Has anyone been able to set up an iPad to do this? I have a...

    Driver Seat Cushion Anyone tried this cushion?

    I know this a really delayed response.... I tried to rebuild or reconstitute my OEM cushion and that helped for a while but it did not last very long. 1AAuto has begun to sell an upgraded MDI foam seat cushion that will fit a Ram with Occupancy Classification System ( OCS ). It took me forever...

    On 2007 Ram need switched fuse for add-a-circuit

    I will give it a shot, also I found out that my cigarette lighter comes on the key and then stays on after the key is removed for a few minutes (like the radio)...that my be why I thought that the lighter was ON all of the time even though it is switched with the key. Thanks for the help!!

    On 2007 Ram need switched fuse for add-a-circuit

    Thanks, did #24 work for you? I will try it again but I am pretty sure I tried that one and it was dead.

    On 2007 Ram need switched fuse for add-a-circuit

    On my 07 Ram 1500 I cannot locate a fuse that is "hot" only when the ignition switch is on and/or when the key is turned to "accessory". I have read post from those with other model year Rams which give suggestions but those fuse locations either are hot all of the time,or the fuse socket does...

    I purchased my PFC pads from O'Reilly's. They showed the rear pad part number for my 07 Ram 1500 Quad Cab with the 5.7 Hemi as PFC part number as 1046.10 However, these pads are much shorter by just over one inch (the actual pad is shorter, the metal part is the same as my OEM). O'Reilly's...

    I put some new seat foam in the driver's seat of my 07 1500 Ram Quad (SLT with the 6-way power seat) and, like I was supposed to do, I removed the negative battery cable before removing the seat from the truck... However, after my re-install I attached the battery and now the CD player will not...

    Driver Seat Cushion Anyone tried this cushion?

    I never could find out if my seat has the OCS so I am just going to try and do the repair mod as described on the various forums....at least it will hold me for a while I guess (no pun intended!). When I tear it apart to do the repair maybe I can determine if it has a sensor in the driver's...

    Driver Seat Cushion Anyone tried this cushion?

    Well one of the auto parts retailer that sells this new cushion tells me that per my VIN number this cushion will not work...I assume he means that I have OCS, but I am still not sure. I also emailed online retailers that sell the OEM cushions (some cushions for OCS equipped trucks and some...
