AlfaOBD Support For 06~12 Rams

[darrollr]

I do have the option to for a Radio, under “Cabin Network”. But it won’t let me “not set”.

Well Bummer. Was hoping it would help you. Are you using the MX/MX+ or a different OBD adapter?

 

[darrollr]

I’m using the OBDLink SX USB.

I would try sending the developer a question. Maybe there's a bug.

Has anyone successfully updated TPMS thresholds? I have tried the process mentioned several post back but it didn't appear to do anything. Under the Body Control Module I have 2 "Update Pressure Thresholds" but when I go to select front and rear pressures the other will dissapear.

I’ve got a 2007 ram 3500 mega cab 5.9 Cummins. Do I need to have the factory radio in my truck in order to make any of these changes? It keeps showing a fault error connecting to radio.

No you do not have to have factory radio to make changes. I have a double din DVD player with a module, and I can do just about everything. I still get the fault code for the radio. Doesn't stop me from doing anything.

Have you followed all the instructions? I believe there's a steo by step that you have to follow exactly which includes resetting the remote hub.

I figured it out, on my 2012 I did not have to reset the remote hub. I just changed the pressures in the car configuration page under the BCM. Have you been able to get into the driver and passenger door modules?

Looking for some help. I was able to make my first change(disable fog light dropout) and when I went to reconnect at a later time I received the following message"Error opening port. You were not connected because a duplicate name exist on the network. If joining a domain, go to system in control panel to change computer name and try again. If joining a workgroup, choose another workgroup name." I have changed the name once of my computer and it let me connect but I didn't make any changes and quit for the night. Went to try it again the next day and I got the same message again. I am using a laptop with windows 10. I also emailed Alfa about this and they first suggested to " run as Administrator" which made no difference.

Can you give some more information? What adapter are you using?

Yes, I have. It allowed me to make the windows go up and down, lock and unlock doors, change side mirror configuration and more.

I am using the OBD MX bluetooth. I can connect and use the OBD link and it's app just fine but when I go to hit "Connect" using the Alfa that's when I get the Error message.

Goto device manger in Windows and select the driver with the Bluetooth device and uninstall it. Then

I was able to turn off completely on 2012 ram.
1. Connect to central gateway
2. Select active diagnostics
3. Then go to vech config 2 tire pressure system preset
4. It will say set or not set, select not set

TPMS will read 0 and light goes off.

Make when connecting BT than your com port baud rate is set same as the connection in AlfaOBD. Default is 115200.

I had all kinds of different errors and I fixed this then no problems after.

Yes - I used it to add uConnect and the steering wheel audio controls to my sons truck, 2012 2500, no problems at all

Did your son's truck have the option for audio controls from the factory? What is the trim level of the truck?

It's an SLT, and no it had neither. I added an RHB radio, the uConnect module, and a leather steering wheel with audio controls. His orig wheel did not have the controls
