    RAM CARES and DRAG LINK RECALL !

    As an update, I called and let my case manager know what was going on. A day later, I got a call back saying they had spoken to the service manager at my dealership and the alignment was a go. Called and scheduled the alignment, and it was done on Friday. Had to wait a week and a half, but that...

    RAM CARES and DRAG LINK RECALL !

    Mine was finally changed, after jumping thru a few hoops. Parts manager and service manager said they had not heard from anyone regarding my case. FCA said they had spoke to the dealer and had the part on its way to them. After a few back and forth calls, we got it figured out and the...

    Bed lights come on randomly

    First off - Thank you for your service, sir! We love it here where the air hurts your face in the winter months! Ordered from my dealer in Farmington, it'll be here in the morning. Cost was the same as buying online. $36 but I get it next day instead of next week, haha!

    Bed lights come on randomly

    Yeah, I did. Forgot to follow up. Once I got the switch to pop out of the bed, I removed it from the wire. As I pulled the connector off, the lights came on. I plugged it back in and pressed the button and the lights went off. Then I tapped the side of the switch housing and they came back on...

    Bed lights come on randomly

    Hey all, I need some help figuring this out. 2018 Ram 2500 CC 6'4" bed, no rambox. When parked, my cargo and factory bed lights will randomly come on. I go out and look in, there is no indicator on the cluster. If I open the door, the cluster wakes up and the indicator comes on. Push the cargo...

    Oil change kit

    Exactly what they are trying to do. I have never had an issue with this dealer, and went to school with one of the lead techs. I fully trust them (been using them since 2008) to do exactly what they say. The price is definitely a draw to upsell other services. That being said, the service girl...

    Oil change kit

    Bought mine used, private sale. Local dealer offers $9.95 oil change on any make and model, unless it requires full synthetic. Been getting my 09 1500 with the 5.7 Hemi done for that price for over a year, I couldn't buy the stuff to do it myself for that price, lol!

    Oil change kit

    FYI: Amazon has this on sale now. $61 for 7 quarts of PUP 0w-40 and a Mopar filter. Looking at my first oil change and the dealer quoted me $140. Read a bunch about oils and how it is hard to find a decent price. Figured I'd share since it popped up in my Amazon recommendations! Amazon.com...

    I found a way to receive your own PIN CODE without the dealer :)

    Great! My bypass cable is supposed to be here Monday, so I plan on giving it a try with AlfaOBD before going the pin puller route.

    I found a way to receive your own PIN CODE without the dealer :)

    I am trying to find a straight forward answer, and I think I understand correctly, but can anyone confirm if the security bypass is necessary to use pin puller on the 18+ trucks? Or can you pull the pin without the harness?

    RAM CARES and DRAG LINK RECALL !

    Got a call from Chrysler today. They have reached out to the local dealer and let them know a new drag link is on the way. Once it gets there, I'll get an appointment set. Thanks Kaitlin!!!

    AlfaOBD

    I tried, but I have a 2018 and have not yet gotten a security bypass cable. Of course all I got was an error message. Not sure if it would work on a 2017 and under. On that note, anyone know the status of the owner of the www.kaodtech.com site? Says on vacation and products would be added back...

    Kaitlin reached out to me today for some info. We'll see where it goes from here.

    RAM CARES and DRAG LINK RECALL !

    Just checked my 2018 and looks like the prior owner had the drag link weld done. PM sent to Kaitlin, hopeful that she can help me get it replaced as it should have been. No reason to half-ass it like that IMHO.

    AlfaOBD

    Great info, thanks. My dealer is great; the parts boss, not so much. I asked for the PIN for my 09 1500 Laramie and he said they are not allowed to give that out. I already have the pin puller app, so I'll likely just go that route. After at least attempting the PIN read from AlfaOBD. Can't hurt...

    AlfaOBD

    Just updated my AlfaOBD software and was browsing thru it. Under the RF Hub in active diagnostics, I see a "Read PIN" procedure. Description says it reads the PIN from RF hub memory. Is this the one you are referring to? I know there are 2, the RF PIN and the key PIN. I assume I will need both...

    AlfaOBD

    Thought that might be the case. I'll order it up, as I have already ordered an OEM remote start kit for the truck. Thanks for the confirmation!!

    AlfaOBD

    Hi all, new here and just picked up a 2018 Ram 2500 CC 6.4L today. I have played with AlfaOBD on my 09 1500 4x4, but wanted some clarification as I have searched and not found a definite answer. I see on 2018+ we need a security bypass cable. Is this needed for ALL functions of AlfaOBD? Can I...
