I searched the forums and didn't find anything on this. I have a MY2020 2500 (PW). I have the bypass installed and AlfaOBD can talk to the vehicle computer, but when I try to adjust my TPMS thresholds, it requires a PIN. For the MY2020, there doesn't appear to be a permanent PIN like there have been on previous versions. For MY2020, RAM parts/service advisors are only able to obtain a temporary PIN, but that hasn't worked with AlfaOBD. Anyone else know what I'm talking about here? Any way to solve this problem? My parts and service guys have tried everything they can to get me the right PIN, but no matter what we've tried, it just is not taking with AlfaOBD.

Interesting. I didn’t need any PIN to adjust the TPMS parameters on my 2020 PW using the AEV Procal so obviously it can be done without a PIN. Hopefully one of the AlfaOBD gurus can help.

These new RF Hubs on the 2019+ HDs are completely different than the 4th gens. As i found out, the PIN is no longer static, so every time dealer connect pings the VIN, the hub spits out a new PIN. The RF Hub needs a live connection with witech to be able to utilize the PIN for anything, such as programming fobs, so the PIN is completely useless to the end user or AlfaOBD. There is also no reset procedure on these hubs, even at the dealer level. The good news is, you really don’t need the PIN, or a reset, like you did before when making changes that involve the rf hub. You can just change the tire thresholds in the bcm, and the rf hub will automatically pick up on them.
