The part you should bone up on 1st is how to back up your current settings before making changes, and how to compare them later.
I have a feeling your going to need it. I know I did. Good luck.

Use a reputable source. You can choose their Amazon link or scantool link. If you sign up for their news letter you can save an additional 10%

I will read up on all of how to back up current settings.
Only thing I will be interested in changing is getting the alarm activated and nothing else

That is a pretty simple procedure. Let me know when you get your adapter and Alfa ready and I will send you some walk through info.

I would go straight to the source. Problem with a lot of eBay and Amazon 3rd party sellers is they are not always the real deal.

From the link I posted:

Vehicle Compatibility
OBDLink MX Bluetooth works with all 1996 & newer model year cars and light trucks sold in the U.S., including all American, European, and Asian vehicles. Live outside the U.S.? Most newer non-U.S. vehicles are compliant with the OBD-II standards.

Just to clarify, this is being used on your 2013 Bighorn and not what you have listed for a Ram year (2005)??

 

[dss56]

Correct pick up today a 1 owner 2013 ram big horn almost every option but the alarm. The red light is on the dash recognizing the key but no flash for alarm set

Until you get Alfa and the mx, once you get familiar with it you will want to change much more lol
