Thanks -- try tomorrow

@ahole4sure you will have no issue after enabling the HID setting and still having halogens. I did it yesterday with the help of @1500ram12 when I had a flickering issue. I installed LED lows and highs and temporally left the halogen fogs in and there was no issue.

Purchased alfaobd was running an elm wifi device but would not update configurations from my android so I ordered a elm327 mini bt running v2.1. It is giving me a CAN error and will not connect to my BCM. Any advice?

Check the Baudrate in settings. It should be this.

Those have been reported to be junk for working with AlfaOBD. Just get the recommended OBD Link and be done with it. Some have reported success with “some” changes, but not all, with a BAFX.

Thanks everyone!

Installed the S-V.4 HEDs into the Highs of my 2018 projector housing ..... This definitely took a little work with the Dremel tool on the housing!!!

Used my MX+ and AlphaOBD for the first time!
Only issue was that I was only able to find where the green connector hooked in (just like an Autel bypass I had used before) but want able to connect the white connector. All seemed to work well.
I was able to:
Enable HID, Enable LED High Beam (just for the heck of it), Disabled Fog Light Dropouts, and Disabled the annoying Seatbelt Warning. Thanks everyone here for help!!!

Hopefully HID Lows arrive tomorrow

The green wire goes in the white plug and the white wire goes in the green plug. If we didn't have 60 mph winds, Id take a pic. It's all in the same area.

I pulled info from my ecm. There are 4 lines on information for mileage? Which one is the actual mileage and why are these lines all different?

Odometer Location 0: 89096.19 miles
Odometer Location 1: 89071.62 miles
Odometer Location 2: 89079.81 miles
Odometer Location 3: 89088.00 miles

Worked like a dream. Still no fogs tho. Any ideas on that? I installed 4 pods.

The 0 reading, I believe, is your overall mileage, and I assume the others are trip values. If you don't use them they got reset near the time the truck was first put into service.

I had a problem with that as well, it was a setting in the alphaOBD software that changed around last summer when I did my fogs so the on/off setting was different than others had used in the past. Unfortunately, my screenshots were local on my old phone that crapped out and I lost everything. MPGRIMM2 helped me find the right setting, maybe he remembers it. Sorry I can't help more.

I don’t think the trip mileage goes any further than the cluster itself. I would think those are recordings from the 4 wheel speed sensors, since those are where the mileage and speed come from.

From Alfaobd. Connect to engine. Then read system status. These are in the list of information that gets read.

So I have the air bag light on because I swapped the seats from a 2017 base (cloth seats) to 2018 power ram seats from a single cab and for some reason they don’t have a weight sensor or seat belt sensor in the new seats so now the air bag light is on. Dealer said some rams don't come with the weight sensor and seat belt sensor..

Anything I can do?
Looked and didn't see Much..
