Wondering if the security bypass cable will work on a 2018 grand cherokee altitude? If so, which one do I get, the 2018 1500 or 2018 2500? I know its not ram related but this seems to be the best resources I can find. I already have AlfaOBD and the dongle from my 2017 ram. Thanks!!!

Have you asked this question to KaodTech?

I have a 2022 Durango R/T. It uses a bypass module rather than the cable that Rams use.

This is the one I use. It works well with both AlfaOBD and Jscan. It also works with my scan tools, but since they are set up with a FCA AutoAuth account, it's moot.

It fits the 2018 and up Durango and Grand Cherokee.


In the dropdown, select C-MODBYP - Best for 1500/Classic Body

The gateway module and harness are under the passenger side foot area, left side.

There are a few videos on youtube that'll show you where to find it. Two connectors.

AFAIK, the 5th gen 1500s have the SGM behind/beside the OBD2 port, depending on the year.

My '21 Warlock has the SGM behind the radio which makes the KaodTech harness preferable. :cool:

He was asking about a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I'm pretty sure the module is in the same place on all of the Durangos and Grand Cherokees from 2018 up to the current models. Maybe. :33:

Oops, I saw the reference to 1500 Classic and went into Auto-pilot mode. :cool:
