It worked with AlfaOBD. There was a difference in the steps sequence, but that's understandable because they update the app often. Just read the options in the app and you'll find the right settings to change.

First thing's first: thank you for the awesome instructions. One addition from me: move your dirver seat backwards before you disconnect the battery - it would make it easier to work in the footwell. I'm all done with the mechanical installation and hit a snag with the software update. 1st I'm...

Thanks, ordered all the parts and will give it a try when they arrive. Will post the results here.

It is 7-pin. I spoke with the "b-wise trailer" and they said the trailer has electric brakes and I do need trailer brake controller. I'm having it installed at the dealership once they receive the parts. I'm keeping the truck because I like it a lot and it's also my daily driver. Will either use...

Here's the yellow sticker of the truck and of the trailer. Also a picture of the brakes - to me it seems that these brakes are only activated if the trailer accidentally detaches from the truck and the safety cable is pulled out. Or am I wrong?

The excavator is Cat 35G: 8.135lb operating capacity. This is the door sticker of the truck. I'd prefer to make modifications to this truck in order to tow the excavator because I like it AND because I'd lose a lot of money to swap it for a 2500. The other thing is - I often must park in...

Thanks for the detailed response. I got the towing capacity from this website: https://www.ramtrucks.com/towing/towing-guide.html I tow the excavator 5-6 times per year and drive annoyingly slow. I really don't want to trade-in for a 2500. I put on around 30K miles per year on the trucks so MPG...

New to Ram. Bought 1500 Laramie EcoDiesel. Occasionally need to tow Cat 35 excavator hence the diesel engine. Any tips and suggestions welcome. Also, equipped it with 22" Terra Hunter winter tires. The road noise is annoying though.
