AlfaOBD

[theblet]

I'm going to ask a NEWB question, so please be easy. Also, I DID spend over an hour looking for this information...............so again, please be easy.

I have a 2024 1500 Laramie and am trying to get Alfa hooked up. I have the bypass cable with the two smaller plugs and the OBD. I know where to plug the smaller plugs in. I know to remove the "stock" OBD and put the other end of my bypass cable where that used to be. First question, is that correct?

Second question, assuming the "stock" OBD plug is now my bypass cable..............what do I do with the "stock" OBD plug? Just tie it up out of the way?

I was planning on leaving the bypass cable in and my MC+ plugged in while I make several changes. Thank for any help.

I leave the bypass cable in place, but not the MC+. It looks like it stays on when the trucks off. It may drain the battery

I remove my SGW bypass cable and leave my MX+ plugged in.
It has an operating current of 62 mA and in battery saver mode it draws 2mA.

Does anyone know how to turn down the audible press sounds? Seems they're set at same level as stereo but I would prefer them at half that volume...

You have Uconnect 5. Entirely different than the 2019-2021 radios, so basically none of their info applies to you. Your issue is most like a radio software issue, which UC5 is riddled with at the moment. You are one version behind though, I can send you the newest update that you can load via usb.

I'd like this too if you could send it please
