[Ricks Ram]

I just went back in again and looked and the (Auto Fold Option) is definitely not anywhere I could find in my BCM. Which actually relives me a little because I was trying to figure out how I missed it. My truck is a 14 so I am thinking possibly it wasn't offered yet by Chrysler in 2014. That being said hopefully it might work for guys with newer trucks. Hopefully someone will give it a shot that has power fold mirrors.

Ok, great! Look above your last. Posted screenshot of location.

Yeah my options are start to differ from your's at that point. I don't have the option on my 2014.

And now we wait, for another Ram with the correct setup to come along.

I didn't realize it was there. I have a 17 with folding mirrors but no memory.

Once I'm done helping with math homework I will hook up to my truck.

I tried this a while ago and it didn't seem to work. Maybe the updated Alfa can get it done now.

Could be what it was or may take longer to set. Even though I don’t have the correct hardware, it should still show up on my screen but just might not be selectable. Going to give it a day and a few cycles to see if it appears.

So I have a question would there be any way to turn my amber led mirror lights on as side markers when my headlights are on...?

Is this what you are looking to do.

I purchased a set of power folding chrome mirrors from 2013 which I did not use. This is what the guy was using.

So, my old laptop o was going to use doesn’t have a Bluetooth option. Rather than trying to piece together a Bluetooth dongle, and the obd mx, does anyone have a USB OBD setup?

I noticed your Ram year as being 2011. We just now have 2012 added to the list of working. You might want to email the developer and see if there is much of a difference between the two years.

I have and I don't remember seeing it. I'm going to check again next time I'm in my truck.

I'll second that, I have been in the door modules to track down the test functions for the puddle and signal lights. I also do not recall seeing anything settable for the mirrors in there.

I just went out and double checked mine. I have a '14 as well. It did not come with the power folding mirrors but I did a full upgrade to them, including new door modules & door switch. There is nothing in the Drivers Door Module for it and nothing in the BCM either.

I took a quick look in the shared BCM files @Ghost_RAM has in the shared drive and the earliest year with the "Auto Power Folding Mirrors customer settings menu" option is the 2016 one.

On a slightly different subject than mirrors, I was looking through my BCM config for settings relevant to the Vehicle Theft Alarm and I noticed two settings I'd not seen in any of the documentation or previous posts, the two highlighted below. I also looked through the shared BCM files and the first one only seems to be on my 2014, the 2nd one only on 2014s and 2015s. Has anyone played with these two settings?

Note: The VTA is not currently active on my truck and I do not have a Remote Start, these are factory settings, as yet unplayed with.

Control-VTA Indicator Request: Yes
VTA Warning LED Output Present: Set
VTA System Present: No
Automatic VTA Arming: Not set (2014 only)
Vehicle Theft Alarm Present: Not set (2014 & 2015 only)
Sense-Hood Ajar Switch: No
Hood Ajar Switch Input Present: Not set

So I'm able to add the Auto Fold Mirror menu selection, but it won't stay checked. Interesting to note that I also added the auto tilt in reverse menu item which DOES stay checked but doesn't actually do anything.

My guess is I need the memory module (s) and mirrors to get these to actually work.

When choosing what to connect to in Alfa I see driver door, passenger door and driver seat amongst the others. If you chose driver seat you are given the option to connect to the memory module or the comfort module. I dont have the wiring adapter to do so, but it looks like others have connected to those modules and not seen any options?

Do note that the actual options might not be listed but there might be some configuration change selection that you need to chose first, just like how we change bcm settings.

Looking through the service manual it looks like the pin change on connection to obd gets you into the CAN interior bus, which is what all the seat and door modules are on. Actually easy to build the adapter if you don't want to spend the extra money on obd MX

I don’t know why it’s showing a 2011. I have a 2014. Would that be in the profile?

You're good to go then. It's under settings / personal details on your settings page towards the bottom.

Yours showed pretty quick. Just went and checked and still no go in settings. I'll look again tomorrow

When I added the auto tilt selection it showed quite quickly too. Maybe just a difference between 2016 and 2017?

I sort of wonder if a setting auto-unchecks because of a missing module, and maybe one that stays checked but doesnt do anything means there is another setting that needs to be changed?

LOL, sorry! I'm color blind and I have a similar problem when someone uses red or dark blue, they just blend right into the dark background on this site. The yellow stands out for me.
