Ahh OK. My older vehicles just use timers I think. Move mirror down x seconds then back up x seconds to end up about where you started.

Not really sure. The factory remote doesn't and I would not think an aftermarket one would either. When you lock your truck the VTA sets itself and the only way I believe it will go off is if the truck is forcible opened. When your remote start it ensures the truck is locked then starts. You have to unlock the doors before entering so it would disable the VTA.

Thank you, sir. That makes sense that it would activate on intrusion. I wonder why they don’t turn on for all trucks.

As with most things it more than likely boils down to money.

I am sure this is a long shot but I'll ask anyways. @Ghost_RAM

Has anyone seen any way to make the truck unlock the doors when you throw it into park? Had a few GM vehicles that did this and I kinda miss it. Haven't found anything in my searches.

I looked for that one too and I haven't found it.

So if I wanted to add heated seats. Is the wiring under the seats already there? Like if I got a set from a wreckers and installed them, then activated with AlfaOBD. Would they work? I know I won’t have the buttons, but the controls will be in my 8.4” radio right?

Unless your truck is a regular cab you will need to add all of the wiring in order for it to work. Check out the thread I started in the 4th gen DIY section ( Installing Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated steering wheel in and Express or Tradesman. M2Mods can make you a harness.

Adding the wiring is really Not difficult at all if you use the M2Mods harness. It's basically a plug and play harness that they developed that is pretty much foolproof and looks just like factory.

Hey all, could someone point me to the "Nav turn by turn"? Perhaps I'm not looking in the correct module. Using the Android version.

The Nav Turn by turn usually works by default when you do the RA4 upgrade. The setting To turn it on and off on the screen with the alpha tool is in the car configuration screen about 3/4 of the way down in the CSM settings.

Today I tried to enable the "Off Road Pages" and "Off road package". Can't see that it did anything. No new pages on the uconnect unit. It was a long shot I guess.

I don't think the "off road pages" does anything for our trucks. If you enable "off road package" in both special packages sections in the BCM near the top, it will give you the Rebel splash screen on boot of the EVIC.

Cool thanks, will take a look.
This is with a 2018 UAS (Non-Nav). Couldn't find an answer if Google Maps/Waze/etc. were able to display turn-by-turn through evic, so was going to give that a try to confirm yea/nay.

That's a great question. When I had my UAQ radio in my truck I'm pretty sure it did not display in the cluster unless I was using the factory navigation. It's definitely something you can verify though.

If you have followed the procedure in post 1 about linking and uploading to your google drive and are still having issues, follow the procedure in this post.

Do you have log recording turned on in the settings menu (inside first button at top of screen)?

Have you connected to your "body computer", connected to the BCM and clicked the battery icon at the bottom to click the "read system ID"?
