    Push button start connector question

    Every circuit is analog at the electrical level, even if it's responsible for transceiving digital information. One open contact in an electrical circuit is no different than two open contacts in the same circuit. A simple test should work: disconnect the push button switch assembly, will the...

    Push button start connector question

    I'm thinking the opposite of a kill switch, more like a second run switch. Pressing only the OEM run switch would not start the vehicle, the hidden run switch would also need to be pressed. Now that I know the OEM switch is smarter than I figured (CANBUS), this may not be possible. If I had a...

    That will work for now, I'd like something more convenient for the long haul.

    Push button start connector question

    If only that were the case; it's because thieves have figured out how to fool the truck into believing the fob is near, or in the truck. They amplify and relay the signals between the fob and the vehicle. It takes two criminals to do it but hey, they get a free $50k truck for 15 minutes work.

    Push button start connector question

    Vehicles are being stolen in this area at an outrageous rate. Even the push button vehicles with their fancy key fobs are being hacked and stolen. From what I can tell, my 2018 Ram has a two-wire pushbutton start, I'd like to wire a secondary switch in series , hidden, so both switches must...

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    Good luck finding a dealer who'll do it for you, none of them around here would even discuss it. The ****** at the one I bought the truck from suggested I drive to a Canadian dealer . I ended up going with an OBDGenie which is really the expensive way to go these days, $129, but it is super...

    DRL settings question

    I used OBDGenie in order to turn on DRLs (before I knew about AlfaOBD), this uses the turn signals as DRLs, and causes the DRL on the respective side to drop out when a turn signal is used. What I'd like to do is have DRLs work just like turning on running lights does, marker lights...

    2018 1500 BSM success!

    Bicycle riders scatter like baitfish when they see my rig coming, lol. I tried the towing mirrors deployed vertical once, didn't care for it, I could see better with them in the normal position. As much as folding mirrors would be nice to have, I have little appetite for diving back into this...

    2018 1500 BSM success!

    Got BSM with mirrors working on my 2018 today, a lot of work but worth it! Really what I want to do here is to thank @Roman217 for making me the harnesses and for his tireless assistance getting this done, it would have been impossible for me to do this without his help!
