2025 passive entry instruction and parts.

[operezh]

I just read the instruction of adding the passive entry feature. Was wondering if this instruction work for a 2025 ram 1500?
Has anyone done it on a 2025 truck?

No, it won't work right now. The issue is the new canbus in the 2025+. There have been lengthy discussions on this on here. And one member is working with the AlfaOBD developer on making it work. Much easier on the 2019 to 2024.

TY. I'll keep checking, hoping that they can make it.

I’m waiting for the same thing. I want to add the passive entry handles to my bighorn as I feel that’s all I’m missing.

Hi I would like to install a trailer brake controller that I purchased but I am hesitant to start without being able to flash the sales codes myself. The dealer wants $225 per hr and it may take 2 hrs. Ouch. So I am also interested in the progress with the AlfaOBD Good Luck

Do you have links for the other conversations. I wasn’t able to find them and want to read them. Defiantly need this modification

Thread 'Adding Passive Entry: How-to'

Jul 18, 2020

If you've seen the original thread on adding passive entry, HERE, you are likely well aware of the issues with getting it to work on the newer trucks that didn’t come with it from the factory. This thread will walk you through getting it to work on the 5th gen DT’s (and the HD trucks) just as it does in a factory-equipped truck, without requiring a visit to the dealer or the addition of the sales code to your VIN.

The success of this has been a collective effort with contributions from many individuals and they all deserve thanks since a lot of time and effort went in to laying the...

It’s ridiculous this isn’t available on the Big Horn. The truck knows when you approach with a FOB so why not let it be enabled?

Has anybody heard of someone trying Vais Technology's SEER device installation. It would require carrying a second FOB attached to the regular RAM FOB, but it locks on walk away which is pretty cool and unlocks when you get close. Aside from the second FOB, the only "easy" way to install it would be with their CAN bus interface, which I'm guessing doesn't exist given the 2025 RAM uses a new one whom I heard rumors was designed by Alfa Romeo/Fiat. If the 2026 RAM 1500 with the Hemi option goes back to the 2024 Can bus, we'll likely be left out in the cold. Although I would think that unlikely--easier to adapt the engine to the CAN bus than change the whole thing back.

They won't be changing it back. This new architecture was designed to support self driving. No way they will go backwards. And this architecture was already implemented by other FCA vehicles like the Jeep.
