Also if you’re taking your numbers off of your 3.5” evic that is what mine said. The thing is with the 3.5” evic when it hits 1500 hours it resets to 0. When I changed my 3” out of my truck my idle was 450 something. And my drive was at 35. It was actually 1535 when I checked it on Alfa and idle was 450 something. Just a thought. Go into Alfa with your 3.5 in your truck and go to your life time hours put like 10 hit start it should show your current actual hours. That’s how I got mine off of my truck.

Do that for both your idle and your lifetime to get your correct numbers.


Then plug in your 7” evic and go through the programming process do your idle hours first then your lifetime.

don't know how that's possible as my drive hours is showing 1661 but the idle showing 2 so you are saying that means 1502 idle hours??3 inch cluster 001.jpg

I just programmed 2 my highline fobs over the last 3 weeks and everything worked fine.

Same here, two highline fobs without issue, but it's known issue for past few weeks with lowline IIRC.

DOH should have kept reading, already reported multiple times lol...

That’s the same thing I said. Just check it with Alfa. And take the number off of Alfa. Maybe different years are different. I thought I accidentally zeroed it out.

I actually have the apk from November that I initially downloaded Alfa. And programmed my fobs with baseline.

So if anyone is having trouble I can send you the apk

Make sure you connect. Then, click the battery icon, before you upload the BCM. The battery icon forces Alfa to read the BCM.

I had the same problem and forum member gapi suggested the same thing and it worked.

Worth a try :)

It worked! Thank you so much! I can't find it but somewhere on here several people I thought had figured out a way to change the file type so it was easier to organize/read the configuration, do you know how to do so?

Maybe that’s the difference in between your phone and a computer. Try to download notepad+

Use a computer to open it up. I haven't used notepad ++ but I use a Google drive notepad extension to get it in a readable format then copy and paste into Word. Every time you download the the bcm files it gets added to the bottom of the previous one. Mines like 60 pages long now. So it's a little pain each time to find the beginning of the new one

Does yours not give you the option to save a completely new file when you upload them? When I do mine each time it wants me to save and name it into a different file. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Note 8. I did somehow manage to open it up on Google browser on my phone and it was a little better just still not good enough for my OCD lol.

Another question for everyone. Months ago I have removed my factory PTS module and installed the module for front & rear PTS, the fog light & sensor harness, the OEM sensors, and the switch bank with front PTS. It works as it should. I'm just wondering now that I seen another members post on another thread that has made be aware that I am missing a setting I had before I added the front park assist. I get a visual warning and audible tones. I changed rear PTS to 'Front and Rear PTS' and enabled 'Front Parksense volume CSM' but when I enabled the front Parksense I no longer have the option that he does and I used to have just sound or sound and display. bf864cfb50de89372bc843f851263b0f.jpg2163748a254099d8b1d730acbfa026d6.jpg

where would I go in alfa to find the numbers?

Go in like you’re changing the idle and total hours numbers on your 3.5. Put 10 in the box and only click start once. It should show you the current number programmed on the cluster. That is your actual
