Quick question i may have missed it somewhere not sure. So when you working on something that requires more than one change in alfa do you need to wait in between changes so that it can take effect or can you make your changes and then disconnect an let the truck sleep and all good? For example i am going to be changing Tire pressure thresholds and it looks like you change it in the BCM first then in the RF hub. Can i do it all at once or change BCM first then wait then make the RF hub change?

For multiple changes in the BCM, I just make them all at once. I just hit start a second time for each change so I can see it say “already set, no change necessary”. For multiple changes to multiple modules, I would change the threshold, then read the bcm ID and make sure it reflects the pressures you changed to, then move right over to the rf hub and reset it.

Quick question. I've looked through the write-ups and working list and I've also done a search.
Can I access and change tire pressure thresholds on a 2017 2500 ??
For some reason I remember reading there was certain years that required the RF Hub to be replaced or reprogrammed at the dealer.
I changed the threshold on a 2016 with no issues..

All you'll need is your 4 digit pin for the rf hub. If you don't have it the dealer should give it to you. Some put up a fight and some charge. If they want more than $15 for it the is a app called Chrysler pin puller that can get it for you

Hi, did you try Front 80/80 and back 55/55 ????
How did that work for you???
I change the suspension values of my 16’ Rebel and now I dont know what are the Stock values or what is the Best combination For my truck....
Thanks....

So quick question. Has anyone successfully used this to adjust the ASCM for ride height? There is a 'Write Suspension Height Values'.. but when I did this (I had thought I could just see the values without changing it.. I was wrong).. it set all of them to 0mm and made the truck complain about servicing the air ride immediately.... I had just had the compressor replaced and they 'reset' my ride height front and back to stock with my leveling links installed.. so now it's low in the front even with my links installed..

before I try this again and have to visit the dealer to fix it.. I thought I would ask if anyone else has done it..

Stock they were set to:
Front Left Calibrated Height: 61 mm
Front Right Calibrated Height: 61 mm
Rear Left Calibrated Height: 53 mm
Rear Right Calibrated Height: 47 mm

and now after the dealer reset it.. they are set to 50/50/60/50 which is way too low..

Figure I could put stock links back in and set the front to 80/80 and back to 55/55 and see how that works for leveling.

I did the same thing as you ! i did not write down my values befor making any changes. best thing to do is go find a level parking lot and start with these values: 54/53/54/50
mesure each corner of your bumper to the ground. if you truck has a lean in the front left my 1" compared to the right side, try these settings 80/70/62/52. this gave me a 2 inch lift in the front and 1 inch in the back.

I haven’t seen a reply from the dev it’s been over a 4-5 days I think the ability to do it is there in most flat that I seen. Hope it just needs to be added to the list for ram

Does anyone have the part number for the front end Harness for the projector Headlights? I am going with projectors from quads and want to change the Harness and not use the Retro adapter. Thanks

68209652AD. This is the part number I used. It has the connector for the fog lights (not the jumper harness, but the connector the jumper plugs into), and the connector for the hood latch for remote start.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for testing the clutch fan relay circuit for early 4th gen? Getting code p0692 after installing new clutch fan.

I don't believe any of the towing mirrors are auto-dimming. Is there a thick frame around the glass part of the mirror? That how you can tell the difference on the non-towing mirrors.

That’s possible, I’m not sure as it was described on some parts sites as dim and some sites as not. @Mpgrimm2 thought it may be. I’ll dig into it further.

I have been away traveling for work and then I was our anniversary since the first week of August I haven’t done much to the truck. Finally got around to installing an OEM third brake light with camera, since I bought it used I figured why not install a new gasket and wash the truck to see for any leaks. So far no leaks!

I did get a message on my dash brake light out initially, it went away after I drove it around for a little bit. Will I see this message again? Is there something which needs to be enabled on my truck? I am in the process of having the harness made from DeereGuy.

You need to set the setting for "CHMSL LED PRESENT" since the OEM third brake light uses LED's.

When you get the harness installed for the cargo camera you also set the setting for "CHMSL Camera: Set" (from "not set")

I did this exact same mod using the harness from DeereGuy. Harness worked perfectly and really not hard to do. Any questions let me know, glad to answer......

According to Benny (allmoparParts.com) and the build sheet for a particular truck as listed in the power fold mirror thread those PNs are 'supposed' to be AutoDim... unfortunately we have seen incorrect build sheet info and parts diagrams from FCA before.
I was hoping someone in the forum could confirm that they had 4th gen power folding TOW mirrors with AutoDim first hand (& the PNs)... Nothing yet.
