    Upfitter Switches

    That was my idea as well. I received the aux switches that I ordered but have not tried the install yet. I have been playing with trying to log the CANbus data and was going to try to re-inject onto the bus to see if I could get it working. I have an ATMEL hardware SDK so let me see if it...

    CAN Bus device addition

    Thanks for the reply. Yes, I know there was a thread on this topic. I had been keenly interested back then. And, I do not want to re-invent the wheel. I have Alfa and am not interested in getting the Tazer for "live" functions" only. There are a few features that I think shouldn't be too...

    CAN Bus device addition

    Has anyone successfully integrated a Raspberry Pi or Arduino into their truck and used CAN / LIN signals for control or monitoring? It seems to me that this is what the Tazer does in "live mode". If something like this is doable then I would think many of the features that are "missing" could...

    Upfitter Switches

    I just received the ASBM I ordered. I was hoping I could get it functional, but it looks like it may be a losing case... Oh, well...

    Upfitter Switches

    I believe these are the changes I made. It was a while ago, and my notes weren't as good then as they are now. CBC Features: Configuration Aux Switches PTO- SIX SWITCHES LIN & Misc: ASBM Present- YES CustSetMenu 1: Auxiliary Switches- 3-6 OPTION I may have done the 4 switches instead of 6...

    video/audio in motion

    I can't vouch for the Tazer, but I used Alfa to enable the cargo cam successfully. It works automatically when the truck is put in reverse- there is a selection button in the upper LH part of the display to choose between the cargo cam and the tailgate cam. You can also select the cargo cam...

    Upfitter Switches

    I ordered the aux switch module (with 6 aux) and it should be coming soon. I ordered and already received extra connector pins and sockets. I have the 2019 DT with 8.4" so Im crossing my fingers that this will eventually work. I changed settings in AlfaOBD and the aux switches show up on the...

    Upfitter Switches

    Jimmy07 - Do you know the part number for the connector & pins for the Aux switch connector? I ordered the aux switch bank and would like to have the pins for when it arrives. Also, do you have the pinout handy? I think I've seen it here somewhere, but am too lazy to look for it.... Thanks!

    Upfitter Switches

    @TravisH Do you see the Aux switch menu on the display? If so, can you modify the settings and have them remain? The issue I had is that when I changed the settings, they changed back. My theory was that it was because I didn't have the physical aux switch bank installed. Also, you have a...

    I hope it works! This is the one I am thinking will work for me as well.

    Upfitter Switches

    Rhondatheram - To answer your question, Yes and No. Yes you can get the switches added to the display on the 8.4" screen, but No I don't think anyone has been successful getting them to function. I was able to select the switches but they don't stay in the changed state. It is unclear, by me...

    Well that’s a bummer- welcome to supply chain issues 2021…

    Upfitter Switches

    I checked the settings and it looks like I changed and mine are as follows: Cust.Set.Menu 1-Auxiliary Switches CSM Present : Switch 1-4 Option LIN and Misc-ASBM Present : No * (I wonder if this is a status or a setting) I tried changing one of the AUX from latching to momentary through Alfa...

    Upfitter Switches

    Thanks for replying- the part number I selected was not more than me putting together what options I have and the part number selector posted in the forums here so thanks for the tip on that. As for the Alfa parameters that I modded, I can’t remember 100%, but I know the ASBM enabled and I...

    Upfitter Switches

    I have an 2019 1500 with 8.4C. On the oem switches I have tow/haul, frt & rear park assist and traction control. I would like to get this working also. I programmed with Alfa and I can see the aux switch settings. But when I try to change the type (momentary,etc) it changes right back to how it...
