I found the setting for the heated/vent seat auto setpoint.

I was digging around in Alfa yesterday, and found if you go into the DRIVER SEAT, you can change the setpoint for the auto on of the vent/heated seat, but I get an alert about "Security Access Denied". I have an '18 Rebel, with the KaODTech bypass cable installed, so not sure what "other" security I need to get around.

Interesting. On my Pacifica their is a separate CANBUS/Star Connector network. I wonder if the same is true and rams and you have to plug in at a different location to alter the seat module? I was trying to recalibrate the liftgate when I realized it's on a different segment and I have yet to figure out how to access it. It's possible that the only way to do it is to actually bypass the SGM at the SGM.

Can you describe where this is at and how you got there? (The menu tree you need to follow?). I have a '17 - and that's definitely pre-security module - so I'd like to check that out later this week.

I was thinking I might have to bypass the SGW directly. I seemed to be able to write to it, otherwise, so I don't think it's a different network bus.

Gotcha, in my case I was getting connection errors.
