Can the SRS light and chime be turned off on a 2012 Ram with AlfaOBD? Or can the entire SRS system be turned off/disabled?

The search isn't getting me an explanation of what Special Package is or its intent anyway? Is it strictly splash and Logo displays?

It should show the backup camera in the full 5" screen or the rearview mirror. Can you possibly post a picture of what you're talking about?

My 19 classic factory backup camera doesn't fill the screen, black bars on each side like an older TV show on a wide-screen TV

I haven't seen this before. My neighbor has a 19 Warlock Classic with the RA2. I actually drove it the other day and I didn't notice any lines on the sides of the screen. I will look at his again and see if maybe I just missed it but I'm pretty sure I would have noticed if it did. My 14 originally came with the RA2 and it definitely showed the backup camera in the full screen. I'm not sure if it's possibly a firmware glitch or camera issue on the newer RA2 radios or if that's just the way they are now. Unfortunately if you took it to the dealer they will tell you it's normal even if it isn't. I have never seen an option to change the the screen size with the Alfa tool and I don't remember seeing and option in the radio settings when I had the RA2.

My 2014 RA2 definitely didn't have that. I will check my neighbors again just to make sure. I guess I might not have noticed if his did it. That definitely sucks since the screen is only 5" to start with.

If you go on autotrader and search 2019-2020 ram classics, every single backup camera image I see for the RA2 radios looks like that.

I'm guessing they use the same camera with the 8.4 and to me that screen looks like 4:3 aspect ratio whereas the RA2 looks like 16:9. Unless there's a hidden aspect setting somewhere I don't know how you'd fix it. It would sure be nice to be able to use the whole screen, that and the sluggish hands free phone performance are the main reasons I'd like to upgrade the radio.

Does anyone know what settings for diameter of a 37” tire should be programmed into the bcm? I’ve used a tire calculator and for a 37x13.5r20 says it should be set to 2951mm. The Speedo is showing we are going 60, but gps’s are saying 57ish-58. The guy wants it pretty close. We went up to 2960 and it’s still off by the same amount. I know we are talking mm here but just trying to get a good base number to get me close enough to be happy. Got the tpms stuff done just hanging in this tire circumference.

That kinda sucks. Next time I see my neighbors 19 classic I will check again. Maybe his was that way too and I just didn't notice.
