I do appreciate the answer but it does not allow allow dimensions. It wants one answer in Millimeters. I'll have to photo how the entry looks so it makes more sense.

On the link I provided in a previous post you enter your diameter in the line provided. In the pic below I wanted to know what 37” tires were so I entered 36.5.

You're welcome, I'm glad people are getting enjoyment out of this thread and program. The creator has been great with the communities questions and issues when they arise.

I have not but I think there have been a couple others out there that have. Maybe they'll post up their experience. I just didn't see a need for myself personally and probably a little chicken mixed in there too. Lol What all have your changed?

Please let us know your experience on your lights when you get it finished up! I'm curious about the HID lows personally. Although, they're working just fine for me now the way things are.

How can I post my read in text format to show my settings?

Completely understood ghost. I was quoting another member to acknowledge the advise given won't translate into alfa. I'm trying the method you've given me. Thank you

There we go. This is a screenshot of the standard FCA vehicle sizes that you can choose from in the drop down menu.

See where it says enter tire in MM?

It won't accept my 35x12.5r20 answerScreenshot_20181209-174357_AlfaOBD.jpg

I'll use the calculator provided by ghost but I'm not experiencing any problems with ABS but it would be nice if my speedo didn't read 3mph fast

It’s asking you to enter the circumference of your tire in millimeters. The easiest formula is diameter (in inches) x 25.4 x 3.14.
25.4 is how many millimeters in an inch.
3.14 is pi.

Have you linked your Google Drive account with Alfa? The first post gives you a walk though

I thought I did but when I access Google drive no folder of any kind exists for Alfa. I'll try again in a few

I know what its asking for. I was explaining to another member his answer of the tire measurments won't work. ALFA has a specific range in mm its looking for.

Again. I'll use ghosts calculator and report back.

Sorry. I guess I misunderstood what you’re trying to enter. I have a coworker that has 37’s. They ACTUALLY measured 36.2”. He entered 2887 (according to that formula) and everything is right on.

I don't think it actually created a folder for me. It shows up under "my drive or recent". If you had to go through the process of linking your drive and giving permissions then it should be there somewhere. Let me know how it goes

No no I appreciate that answer because both you and ghost are saying the same thing.

I'll find the exact measurements of my nittos and get it entered.

Thanks again guys

You can give it a try but I have a feeling it is going to read your BCM and connect as a MY2013.
Well this explains why it isn't working. I checked the PN on my mirror and it showed a pic of it with the camera sensor on it. Guess it was wrong because there's no sensor on mine lol. My mirror is PN 68096091AB

And to answer your question about the CSM codes, I tried every other menu and it just connects to MY2013 like you were saying.

Yes that is definitely the wrong mirror.

Yeah, wrong mirror.

A lot of parts diagrams show that part number with the camera looking thing in the back, but reality is its not correct.

You need a part number that goes back to a mirror with sales code LMS.

Yeah they show it clearly having the sensor. I checked several Mopar parts sites and they all showed that PN with the sensor. Crazy.

Anyways thanks for the help everyone.

68096094AE is the correct part number for the Smart Beam mirror for 13 to 16 Rams with Assist/911 buttons with no rear view camera in the mirror. You can also use it on the 17 and 18 ram but their mirrors don't have the microphones like the 13 to 16 Rams.

It is normal for Chrysler to show a general picture of the part for the description. You can never use the picture as the basis of buying the part. It is best to look up the part# and read the description of what options it supports.
