I ordered a Samsung tab E this AM so once that comes in all I will need is the software and then commence to making the few small changes I want to my truck...

You can try to change one setting at a time and let it sleep between each change, that's what I do and I have never had an issue.

Well. I just went through all these settings:
a8fbcc326ed2ed87fb8d4e9918e799d5.jpg

And they all say:
ae2cdd3d4c203701e43f86f00e1a13ce.jpg

Sorry to make this a long post but I hope it helps others too.


So to make sure I’m doing this right: go to active diagnostics then car config change?

e3e9f1009a40696d5c1b9da184aa0970.jpg

Here are the first two on that checklist:

82935e669d00739f2e6bffe9d7adca1c.jpg

Both are set to yes.

Here’s the next three...one selected and the two below:

Next:

Next:

Finally:

Then showing nothing shows up here yet:

Hoping it’s something really dumb that I’m messing up!

@Tankerpilot01 You do have the CSM set right? Sorry if this has been answered. Haven't been following too closely.


Customer Service Menus: Daytime Running Lights CSM
Select “yes

Edit: The program customer features just enables/disables them. The CSM is needed to show in the 8.4 settings.

Yes you can change lows to led's. Under body Computer 2013-17, car configuration, it will be about half way through the list in the CBC list along with highs, reverse, fogs, turn, park, license plate, rear turn and brake

Thought that’s what this was:

Apparently there is another item/location I’m missing?

How do I get to the CSM? Is it in the same area?

Perhaps it somewhere other than Body Computer?

If you go to post 1 and look for my name I have step by step instructions with pictures. Although it's done through the android version the steps will be the same

You may have everything enabled already. It could take it up to 24 hour's for it to show up in the radio

Or a radio reboot, that's what mine took.

Ok. Hooked up my bypass harness to my truck, and hooked up the obdlink mx. Was into the body computer and used MY2103-2017 control unit. I was able to turn on and off the turn signals, tail light, head light in diagnostics. Not sure how to make changes. Was playing with it for a bit but couldn't figure how to get to the settings for DRL or the fog light drop out setting. Am I missing something?

I just took a screen shot of the Alfa screen while I was inside of the house just to show the difference from Ghost Rams screen shots. Thanks guys.

These the correct lights that should be on for DRLs with the projectors? Thanks!

Yes. Projectors use the parking lights at reduced power. If you turn on your parking lights you'll see they will be brighter
