Used this on my 24 1500 Rebel, had hood switch already, turned on options in Alfa OBD and bought new Fob, 2 locksmiths couldn't connect to the truck to program so went to ram dealer and they programed for me. They were really surprised when my non remote truck all of a sudden had remote start and remote tailgate release. Thanks for figuring this out and saving me a bunch of money

Yep - when I did this for my dad’s truck, our local dealer swore up and down it wasn’t going to work since the truck didn’t come from the factory with it. I just stood my ground and told them to program the key. They were also shocked when the truck fired up with the remote start after lol

Anyone know what this might be called in jscan? "remote tailgate release" All the options i see have rambox included.

I see videos of AlfaOBD and Javan reprogramming key fobs no problem? But I do have hood latch and push to start but I don’t see any purple wire in the box behind back seat (2023 1500dt) do I need that or is it located somewhere else now?

if you pay for the app you get remote start even though its not on your FOB or window sticker

Mine doesn’t show remote start in app
