AlfaOBD

[jcarden10]

I can test later but I have not see that problem. I was confused when first looking at the config because I wasn't scrolling far enough down the list. It saves each session in order. After so many sessions, the list grows quite long.

Guess I started typing my reply before your post showed up. At least it confirms my thoughts.

It is all good. Help is always appreciated!

I think I saw this earlier but now I can’t find it. Is this app available on either iPhone or for a Windows laptop?

Set the "fog lamp high beam dropout" and "VTA System", no issues.

Now to plug into my wife's Jeep and see what I can do! [emoji6]

Good news everyone. I got the new APK file to install and was able to successfully change my tire size from 265/70R17 to 275/70R18. I didn’t get any ABS or other errors. I used my phones GPS to compare and the speeds were the same.

The odd part is that I don’t see any change in the BCM config. I figured id see a change in the “dynamic tire circumference” lines. But they are the same as my baseline config.

So there is hope for those wanting to change tire size with AlfaOBD. I assume if it doesn’t work now, a new update will get pushed to the AppStore soon.

Has anyone tried setting the 'Auto Entry Exit CSM'? I was able to activate the menu, but when I try to turn on auto lower on exit (lower air suspension to entry/exit height when shifter to park) I get an error message that savings weren't saved successfully.

It's possible that the setting simply isn't applicable to our trucks. The BCM (and therefore Alpha OBD) contains many settings that are for other vehicles that the same BCM is used in. I don't have the factory air suspension so I can't try it myself.

Yeah, just wondering if anyone else has tried, maybe I missed something. Would be nice to have this feature.

So, I came across something interesting. There is a guy on Facebook that sells a kit that includes the Upfitter Auxilary Switches and a custom Fuse/Relay box for the 1500s. Allowing you to use the switches to control stuff. He just posted yesterday that if you enable the "Auxiliary Switches CSM" using AlfaOBD, apparently the controls actually function as expected. You can switch between battery and aux power, last state, and even switch the buttons to momentary switches. So even though they are custom wired, they can function exactly like the actual Upfitter Aux Switches on a 2500 through the EVIC screen.

So had a similar issue with the 'Trailer Name CSM' setting. I can see the new menu items, and select a name, but it doesn't update the display. [emoji20]

Has anybody else lost their rear turn signals after enabling DRL’s?

EDIT: And I have no headlights!

First I heard of this. Just went and checked my signal on both sides are working fine. Sure I would have been pulled over long before now as well.

Just went and double-checked mine, rear turn signals and headlights are fine after enabling DRL ( I set DRL location to turn signals)

Adjusted mine today, changed to the Toyo 35" AT, which is not exactly the same as my tire (Nitto 35" AT), but probably close enough, at least closer than stock tire size . It's the only Flotation size listed, although I suppose I could try 285/65R20 if it is listed. Anyway, I went from being 3 MPH slow on the speedo at 75 to being dead on to 1 MPH fast at 75 based on the GPS. lower speeds were pretty much dead on.

I've had my DRLs enabled (via Alpha) for over a month with no issues. I would check the log in Alpha and see if something got changed that should not have been.
