Need some help, Cannot find "Global Down" to open the windows with the key fob!. Any one seen it? Thanks.

Additionally, is there a spot to keep the low beams on with the highs. I had Duals. But switched to aftermarket projectors that use a different bulb for the low and highs. Would be great to keep have all four lights on.

Try turning on the quads setting and see if that works for you.

Maybe I missed it, but can we have the power mirrors aim down when in reverse?

I believe you have to have the memory seats, and memory mirrors and correct modules in order to have that to work.

Thanks. Turning on quads worked. Now have bothprojector beams on with highs. Down side is I lost DRLs in the day time. But they come on at night. So I can hardwire them in with the modify street kit included with the projectors. But won't I have 24 volts going to them at night as they will have dual sources of voltage. No other settings in alfaobd seem to work with turning them on other than taking the quads setting off. Thanks for the help

Attempted that including dedicated, and turn signal as DRLs and even tried the Canada setting...maybe I'm missing some other option.
If you set turn signals as DRL, and set DRL to optional try that. Now remember, parking brake has to be off, and it has to be in gear, to see the lights come on. Best to have a partner help you.

I've been trying to find the option to switch turn signals to LED. I'm not finding it in the change vehicle configuration for my 2012. I'm going through the Central Gateway Module.

I haven't found that option for our trucks either. I see quads, HIDs, and xenon.

Dang, I have the front and rear turn signals that need LEDs, then the exterior is done. I wasn't going to swap if I had to wire in resistors.

I'm thinking about purchasing the scan tool and app. Hope I'm not waisting my money. Other than turn options on and off. How does it work as an actual scan tool? I've been looking at one called bluedriver. It will find why the check engine light or what light on the the dash is on tell a code. Then you can on there internet page and look up what others have found with said code.

It works great just as a scan tool. The bonus to this one is that it switches the pinout automatically so it can work on any vehicle with canbus, and if you buy the Ford or Dodge app you can do a whole lot more. The alfaobd app really let's you get into the diagnostics of the vehicle and dive into all the modules.

Thank you
I plan on purchasing the alfaobd app. How's this app as far as a scan tool? I know that I can change all kinds of stuff on my ram truck with also.

You can download a trial I think, but it gives you a ton of diagnostic info, you can read faults and clear them, and get extra info on them, and you can do that for every one of the modules, you can read info on them. I'll try to hook it up to my truck here in a little bit and show some examples.
