I have not done anything yet.... I'm waiting to spend the $150+ to get everything until there is somewhat of a certainty that this could fix the issue. If you think it will fix the issue then I will order it. But not sure which options I need to pick when I Have Alfa open. Going through the thread looks like I will need to change several options.

Yes you'll need alfaobd if you don't want to use canbus adapters.
You'll need to set high intensity discharge lights -enabled (this is what disabled the pwm feature that causes issues with led/hid)
You don't have to but you can enable led low beams, same with the highs (they aren't controlled by pwm)
Fogs you'll have to enable leds

I don’t know if this was posted but I changed the acceleration factor from 5 to 3 and it made a big difference. I know some people go and buy peddle commander or something like that but it made a difference might try to go to 1 and let it rip lol!!

I am curious to know if I can active bluetooth streaming music. Currently my truck will just allow me to do calls. Anyone know if this is possible?

2010 doesn't support it. Depending on what radio you have and\or if you have the separate uconnect module, either replace the radio or module out of a 2011 OR 2012

For real? I’ve messed with it before but didn’t notice a difference... maybe it never set

Try what's in the picture first. If that doesn't work
Try setting this:
CBC I/O Usage- driver door ajar switch usage > not set, none
CBC I/O Usage- front passenger door ajar switch usage > not set, none
CBC I/O Usage- left rear door ajar switch usage > left rear lamp diagnostics
CBC I/O Usage- right rear door ajar switch usage > right rear lamp diagnostics
Let us know if it works brother.39e7e7d2cc7028ff3562c982103b097f.jpg

Anyone know if you can do mileage correction for the 5th gen 7 inch Evic? If so are the steps the same as the 4th gen? Any advance knowledge would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Question regarding DRL’s.

I have the OEM projectors and have had the DRL’s activated for 18 months and they work great.. except they don’t turn off with the parking lights.

Is there a way to shut them off, aside with the settings on the 8.4, when the parking lights are turned on?

Sure makes parking/fog light use annoying with the bright orange glow.

Thanks
