I am needing to get keys programmed for my 2500 ram 6.4 and the lock smith says his deal is asking for a 5 digit pin and told me I need to go to the dealership and get the pin. Well the dealership says all they can pull up is a 4 digit pin. Anybody know anything about this. I have called a bunch of different dealer service departments and they told me the same thing. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Just curious, but did they give you the 4-digit PIN without any issues? I've heard some dealers don't want to release it.

I just had a new fob programmed at a locksmith as the wife lost hers :rolleyes: He didn't need a pin at all to do it, connected up under the dash where the security cable plugs in, activated his device and pushed a few buttons. Done. Now hoping she doesn't lose this one.

What you have is a "rolling code 5-digit pin system". My dealership never heard of this either. I'm trying to change my RF Hub settings to install RKE in my 2023 Ram 1500 Classic using AlfaOBD and that setting is requiring a 5-digit pin system. Only thing I have found so far is one source said the Autel MaxiIM IM508 "might" be able to provide this. AlfaOBD has a feature to find the code, but says "not supported yet".

My next step is I'm going to contact AlphaOBD and see if they have a workaround for this yet.

Nice to see a YouTuber that doesn’t take 30 minutes to tell you 3 minutes of information.
