I own a 2021 Ram and a 2012 VW Beetle. Don't judge me. The Beetle, with an OBD reader, has some easy coding options. One was the ability to set the windows to roll down with the keyfob unlock button and roll up with the keyfob lock button. Pretty slick on a hot day. Any idea if Ram can do coding tricks like this?

There's a Global Down setting for the 4th gen Rams that you can enable with AlfaOBD, but as far as I know there's never been a Global Up that's worked.

My 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 use to roll down using the FOB, it came that way from the factory.
Many people complained, because they unknowingly had rolled down their windows, while remote starting their vehicles.
Sometimes it would rain & soak the upholstery

Yup, Alfaobd FTW! Have used it for adding power fold tow mirrors, windows down feature, keeping fogs on with high beams and one or 2 other minor settings.
