If you don’t change any settings with alpha make sure you don’t leave the keys in the truck and use the door handle to lock the keysI just ordered the kit from Auto Tech Electronic, I like the the idea of not having to make wiring harnesses or mess with AlfaOBD.
I will report back after the install !

When ordering they ask for my VIN and other options. The hub already comes programmed for the truck and the included Fobs etc.
They just use the Vin so they can get the correct 4 digit code into it .When ordering they ask for my VIN and other options. The hub already comes programmed for the truck and the included Fobs etc.
I'm at the reset hub step but I'm getting a "The programed FOBIK is not inside the vehicle" error. I go to program the fob and it says it's already learned. I can unlock/lock the doors with the FOB. While I was programming the FOB it was stuck for 10mins so I canceled out. Anything I can try besides purchasing another FOB?
I almost went this way as well. I talked to them and they were very helpful. They were pretty much the only way to go before the Alfa tool came out. I decided to build the harness and enable the codes with the Alfa after Jimmy07 did the writeup. I wanted the push to start icon to come up on my evic when I touch the handle and I wanted the option to turn the proximity handles off in the radio settings menu. I can turn them off when I wash the truck so they aren't constantly flashing on and off. I also like not being able to lock my keys in the truck with the Fobic safe feature. Auto Tech Electronics makes a nice system too so nothing wrong with going that way at all plus you won't need to build the harness. Pretty sure you could enable the codes with the Alfa if you ever decided you wanted to in the future.I just ordered the kit from Auto Tech Electronic, I like the the idea of not having to make wiring harnesses or mess with AlfaOBD.

Yes I believe we had a member or two in this thread realize what codes were missing and we were able to walk them thru enabling them. Easiest way to notice something was missing was that "Push brake to start" wont come up "out of the box" on the Auto Tech kit. A more painful lesson is that the fob can be locked in the truck "out of the box" with the Auto Tech kit.
I'm thinking you should be ok because these codes are in the BCM and not the RF hub. I'm not sure what will happen if you enable the proximity entry code in the CSM menu to turn them on and off since Auto Tech figured out a way to make them work without enabling the code but it's worth a shot just to see if you can turn the feature on and off. It honestly makes it nicer at the car wash. The truck locks and unlocks every time the water stream hits the handles. I would definitely try enabling the push button start code and you should get the correct push button to start code in the evic. I'm assuming you already have the 7" speedometer but I think I read somewhere it showed up on a 3.5" speedometer but I haven't personally seen it. I would also think the Fobik safe enable should work as well. Definitely let us know how it goes as some guys might want to go this route instead of building their own harness. I would recommend getting it all installed and working and then try enabling the codes so you can back track if you have any issues but I doubt you will have any.Well after reading the replies I ordered a bypass cable and a friend has AlphaOBD and a module to connect. I’m assuming if I enable all the keyless entry and push start features before installing the parts I should be good to go ?

Just to confirm this is all I need from Mopar. I am not doing door handles as the price skyrockets in the land of Canada.
68319680AE Hub Receiver
56046958AA Passive Entry Antenna x 2
6CK46DX9AC Ignition Switch
Just curious, I ordered my hub, push button, antennas and driver handle on January 2nd from allmoparparts and then a couple weeks later I was told the hub was on a 30 day national backorder, so I told them to do a partial shipment. So then I ordered a new hub off ebay which showed up pretty quickly, but I still don't have the rest of the parts.
A couple of weeks ago I was told the pushbutton was now backordered.. How long is it taking you guys to get parts?
Can I just install the new hub without doing anything else just to make sure it works and then add in the rest of the parts if I ever get them?
I can't see why this wouldn't work but I figured I'd ask..
