I'm still trying to figure out how to unlock my truck so I can turn on my auto highbeams, auto wipers and change my tire size and tire pressures.

I got the pin number from the dealer yesterday.

How do I input it? Do I do it through the alfaobd app?

I've been looking and searching, but I'm can't find anything in the app.

Everytime I try to change something, it won't change. So I'm sure I'm missing something. Does anyone have a link to a write-up or video?

Thanks

You only need the pin# to change the tire pressure and that's in the RF hub. You can change tire size,auto high beams and auto wipers without it and that's in your body computer. You will need the correct auto high beam mirror for it to function. You will also need the correct mirror harness and rain sensor for the rain sensing wipers to work. I reccomend you go to the first post in (alfa OBD) thread and read all the information. Since your truck is a 2018 you will need to order the security bypass harness from M2mods who is a vendor on the forum. The tool will not make changes without it. I reccomend you read Everything you can before you start trying to make changes and Fully understand how the tool works Before you start. This tool is awesome and works great but it is also Powerful. You can make a mess of things if you change things you shouldn't.

It works fine. Many people have successfully enabled codes on the 2018 trucks with the alfa tool and the bypass cable. Make sure you do a BCM dump before you make any changes to the BCM or RF hub so you will have a reference to go back to should you have any problems.
