I did mine about a year and a half ago, so I don't remember exactly the steps. There are three things to turn on, and I'm pretty sure they are in the BCM. Look in the Alfa thread above and it should be in the first page under known working mods or something like that.

Just did this over the weekend.

Connect to body computer
Car configuration change
CustSetMenu 2 - trailer selected CSM =yes
CustSetMenu 2-trailer name CSM = yes
CustSetMenu 2 - Trailer Type CSM = Yes
P/T Chassis Net - ITBM/HWM Integrated Trailer Brake Module = Enable


I tested with my car trailer and everything works. I did have to let the truck sit for an hour or so before it showed on the uconnect screen settings.

Okleron,

Did you ever figure this out? Only asking because I just did an OEM trailer brake install on my 2016 Ram Tradesman 1500 over the weekend and would be happy to provide you some tips. FYI I used the Windows version of AlfaOBD, which was not as intuitive as the Android version, but same principle.
