Hello all,Hope alls well with everyone
As subject says but mine is driving me nuts.
Its a great fit,look an function
but whats driving me nuts is that everytime I get into the truck
I have too reset the screen
I'd set display to show Speed or Function display from Radio or......
but after turning truck off say to run into store an then restart truck the screens changed
It's happened on my other which I thaught was malfunction so traded it for another
and same thing happens
Now being this second 1 installed doing same i'm assuming this to be the norm...or am I
missing something? an if norm,why would Ram screw with that?
ZThanks for any replies

It's not normal but I have heard of this happening before. Try searching the AlfaOBD thread or the 7" premium cluster upgrade thread...maybe their is a resolution.

I understand, but I have heard of this one time before and it was in one of those aforementioned threads. If it wasn't you that posted it there, maybe you and the other person with the issue can compare notes?

I added the premium cluster to my 17 tradesman and it does the same thing as well.

What screen does it come up with when you start the truck? I found with mine (and I upgraded to the 7" EVIC too), that mine would switch to the Tire Pressure screen every time I started my truck, when I switched to some snows that turned out to have the wrong tire pressure sensors in them. Once I fixed that, then it went back to starting up with the Speed being the first screen.

Did you ever find a cause or cure for this? I just installed my 7" EVIC and mine does this, but only occasionally. I usually have mine set on speedometer, I think it changes to the multiple gauge display. Whatever it is, it's "down" 1 click on the scrool buttons. I click up once and I'm back where I want to be. If this is the same for you, maybe its a clue...?
