does anybody know if with the latest update we are able to change idle and drive hours on the premium clusters?
I know we cant do the mileage itself yet

I ask because I have a premium cluster that the mileage itself is extremely close to mine and I can just take a drive
to get it on the money and then swap it out so the mileage will be correct

Yes you are able to change the hour's. Enter idle hour's then if I remember right to get the drive hour's you need to enter the total hour's (drive +idle) enter that number in the lifetime hour's (I believe is what it's called in alphaobd) and it will give you the drive hour's it's a little backwards but it works

Question for you guys.

What are the option which can be enabled using the AlfaOBD?
I have a 2016 Limited so as far as I knew everything was enabled.

I would like to have windows down option when off the Key Fob like my older cars.

Is there a list of options available for me to look at?
If I wanted to enable the windows down and maybe Fog with High Beams, do you think it is a worthwhile investment for just a couple of things?

Is this a universal unit which could be used with other males and models?

Thank You

I have done the following on my 2016 Limited:
- Fog on high beam
- Global down
- HID for low beam
- LED for high beam
- LED for fogs
- LED for reverse lights
- LED for license plates

Is there a step by step for fog lights on with high beams?

I just did this and it's pretty much verbatim on the list of known working:
Fog lamps with high beams:
CBC Features: Fog lamp dropout enable
Select "No"

I've not downloaded the app yet, there is a drop down or section labeled CBC features? I'm guessing it will be in the BCM section?

After you export your original log:
Then the fog light drop out is under: Body Computer
then: Change Vehicle Configuration
then: CBC Enable Fog light Drop Out

Would like to ask a question please.

I have a 2017 sport with the led tails. I changed them to the new Morimoto xb tali lights and now i'm getting the passenger tail light out. The dash says parking light out. What do I need to change in Alfaobd to get the tails to work and get rid of the parking light out msg? From what I have read on this forum is the Alfaobd would be the best solution to make these work. If anyone could give me guidance that would be great!

Thanks

For reference, I have a 2019 1500 Classic, utilizing a Nexus 7, OBDLink MX+, M2 Mods Security Bypass Harness, and AlfaOBD I have successfully enabled the following features:

Vehicle Theft Alarm
Windows Global Down
LED Turn/Park/Marker Lights (OEM Quads)
Turn/Park/Marker Lights as DRL
LED Fog Lights
(Disabled) Fog Light Drop Out w/ High Beams
Tow Mirrors (1A Auto Tow Mirrors)
Power Folding Mirrors
Tow Mirror Signal Lights
Tow Mirror Puddle Lights

The only thing I have not been able to do is change my tire circumference.

I have already read that, are there other things possibly in the future with this can enable. I have most of not all of the above features activated from the factory.
I guess my question should have been are there any other non factory options which can be enabled, besides the windows down via key fob, and fog lights with high beams?

Over the weekend I installed power folding mirrors, the door modules and the new door switch. With the Alfa is was very simple now I don't worry about tearing up a passenger mirror while going through the garage door.

Thank you for your help.

I have purchased canbus LED bulbs for all of my non LED bulbs.

Is there anyone here from Long Island who is familiar with enabling the windows down feature?

I would gladly pay for your time if you could enable that for me. Since this is my daily driver I leave the tuning and other programming to people who have more knowledge than I do.
