You can install the Laramie seat plug and play and it will work. Remember the 13 and up trucks have completely different wiring than the 09 to 12 trucks. Make sure the seat is out of a 13 or newer and that it has the airbag. The Bighorn actually comes from the factory with all the correct wiring for power seats driver and passenger plus the heated/vented seats plus heated wheel even if your particular truck didn't come with it. You can do the full conversion to heated seats and wheel if you don't already have them or heated/vented seats and heated wheel if you chose. You can also enable memory and other features. If you interested I reccomend looking into alpha obd thread. If you are just interested in the power seat working there are no codes or special things needed. Just install the seat and plug it in.

Sorry didn't realize your truck was a 19. I can't see that info on Taptalk. The info listed was for the 13 to 18 rams. Not sure if it would be the same for the new 2019 Ram. The alpha tool is for the 4th gen Rams. Primary the 13 to 18 trucks.
