Looking For Ram OBD Adapter Cable Set

[Matty B]

I’m on the hunt for a Ram OBD adapter cable set, but need the Blue adapter in particular at the moment. Does anyone have a suggestion on which would be a good brand to buy or where to purchase from? Any help on the topic would be greatly appreciated.

thank you

The OBDLink MX is the recommended OBD adapter as it can automatically switch between canbuses. I personally have this adapter which has a manual switch to go between High Speed and Mid Speed Can Bus.

Thanks. I have the OBDlink MX+, but I’m after the adapter cables so I can program HVAC, etc. The one I’m after is the blue cable, but would like to get a set of its reasonably priced.

thanks

Are you referring to connecting to the modules with the little adapter icon next to them in alfaobd?

The obd mx and mx+ can do that without the need for the wiring adapter. They can pin switch on the fly so the connection to the different can bus happens automatically.

I have have tried with just the Mx+ & it was unsuccessful & had cluster alarms going off (traction control & TPMS). Am I doing something wrong in preparing to adjust the HVAC settings? Any help is appreciated.

Wish we could get a response to this because I'm in the same boat and it's been 5 years haha

I haven't had problems with my '16 making those changes.

Perhaps it's your setup in AlfaOBD. The compatibility PDF shows what OBD dongles to use and which ones need the extra cables.
The pic shows how to set the type of OBD dongle being used.

Also, ensure you are hitting "connect" when you change modules to be tested. Very easy to be overlooked.
