All right guys, serious question. Scotty1987 posted in DIY thread he changed his splash screen on the 7 in evic to a picture of his own liking. Did I miss something on this thread or is this April fools in July?

Below is the pictures he posted. 09edd95d3db06a5ce9a1bf05a528609a.jpg

No it’s a pre set option in Alfa. He didn’t do anything special. Here is a screen shot of all the packages.

Note. Not all will work with our trucks

I think tomorrow when I have some free time(at work) I’m going to go through and try every single one and see which ones work. Lol it should take me a few hours to try them all depending on how fast they take to the truck.

Wondering if you ALFA gurus can help. I recently dropped my pressure settings after I chalked my tires. My pressures in my tires were 43psi front and 35rear. I changed my threshold settings in ALFA tto 38psi front and 30 rear. We've been in the high 90s for a few weeks but had a cool evening last night. My rear pressures dropped down to 31psi. And for some reason my tpms light came on and stayed on even after my tires warmed up to 35. Any idea why my light would come on even though I didn't drop below the 30psi. Here's a pic after my tires warmed up on a 45 min drive6ffd0f293a61af48c335b56aeac1eb47.jpg

You are correct. Unfortunately the 2014 EVIC is only programmed to show the Ram emblem at start up no matter which option package you have selected in your BCM. Your BCM is capable of showing the different splash screens if you put in a newer speedometer. My truck is a 2014 and I was able to change them when I put in a 2016 speedometer.

I have received a few people asking how to program Lifetime drive and idle hours. I made a walk through to help people out. I will quote this post with the walkthrough.

@Big daddys house. You should do a video for programming the idle and engine hours if you can sir!



How to program Idle/Drive hours on premium 7” EVIC

Connect to your instrument panel and click the car with the hood open

Click on the drop down menu
Click on program custom features towards the bottom of the list

176f1cdfd77ba1a6df88f673a91488b0.jpg

You will see a second drop down menu. Click on it and you will see your two options for programming your Lifetime idle and Lofetime engine hours
83084e763366d7c55b43f9320eda6310.jpg


Your Lifetime Engine hours is the TOTAL hours your truck has been on. So you need to add your Drive and idle hours from your old EVIC together.

Example
Idle hours on old EVIC - 350
Drive hours on old EVIC - 605
Your Lifetime engine hours would be 955.

That is what you enter in the Total engine hours box Show in the pic below
8deb841b7ccb4525652ace3380a1861f.jpg

Next click the second drop down menu and select Lifetime Idle hours

This is where you just enter your exact Idle hours on your old evic

After this your evic will calculate your Drive hours itself. So you don’t have to do anything else

Disconnect and close AlfaOBD like normal

How do I turn on the puddle lights and marker lights on my towing mirrors with this?

Changed the splash screen logo with alfaobd its really cool feature [emoji4]

Is there a way to keep the splash screen constant, and not just momentarily when you start the engine?
