I my have an unusual question, but I’m looking for something to set a 2011 Dodge Ram with a 4,7 liter engine to go no faster than 20 mph by programming the ECU.
Any suggestion?

It my look stupid, but the truck is going to be exported and in that country 15 years old can drive if the vehicle has a speed limiter and could go no faster than 20 mph.

Never heard of being able to do that but maybe, maybe, dealer level tool.

Well I can tell you if you have anything less than a BigHorn will be very satisfied with AlfaOBD.
Even if you have a bighorn or above, you will still find usefulness in AlfaOBD in led change.....

You can change the speed limiter with HP tuners. You should be able to set it to whatever you want.

Some Rams can be programmed from the dealer with witech but it’s usually only on the HD trucks.

Something like HP tuners would probably be the easiest.

We have a way of adjusting the speed limiters on the HD trucks but the way the software is written we can only choose from a preset speed value.

HP Tuners is going to be the best route to take.

Thanks
Any link to where you recommend buying HP Turners?
I recommend buying the MPVI-2 directly from HP Tuners website. Once you purchase the MPVI-2 you will need to download the HP Tuners VCM Suite to perform the necessary changes.

Unless you have ever dabbled in the custom tuning world HP Tuners may look like a different language to you. There are a lot of settings that can be changed and if you dont know what you are doing you can really screw things up.

If you are going to attempt to do this by yourself without the help of a professional tuner, please make a backup of your stock PCM calibration before making and changes. Doing this will save you from the headache of trying to locate a stock file that matches your trucks combination.
