    Alternative to Rockford Fosgate DSR1?

    The audio control stuff can be found way cheaper. Especially if you could get a good used one. It looks like the dsr1 pricy too and you’d still need an amplifier. Never heard of an issue with AC but have heard of problems on the RF

    Alternative to Rockford Fosgate DSR1?

    I am under the impression that the dash speakers are directly drive off of the head unit and dont go to the ANC. My plan is to unhook them all together and put the tweeters from my MOREl set in the door sail Gotta add wires for the front doors so I can individually feed the tweeter and...

    Alternative to Rockford Fosgate DSR1?

    This is kinda the route taking. I'm getting the signal thru a modified ANC-ch01 and sending the hi-level front signal to a D-4.800 for a front set of Morel comopnents, RCA output from that amps DSP to A LC-1.800 for a sub (TBD). The Radios rear channels go to a ACM-2.300 feeding a pair of...

    Issue with music from USB stick

    i meant the file system setup for the stick like ntfs, fat, fat32 a little insight.... https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/uconnect-12%E2%80%9D-media-abilities.1560/

    Issue with music from USB stick

    Silly idea. What file system is the stick formatted? Maybe change that?

    Tow/Haul for a Uhaul 6x12?

    True…. And before cars people walked. Unless your forgetting about the buggy whip. Some might consider it the OG tow/haul mode

    A/C Noise ?? Very annoying

    My 2020 QQ BH does the same thing. Initially thought it was the front passenger side speaker and ANC on the fritz. Highway speeds on windy days. Random timing. Can't find a situation where i can reproduce on demand. Sounds similar to someone opening the window on the highway but inside...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    resistors came in and have been sitting on my desk. I need to solder leads on the ends of them and then Ill get to it tomorrow and report back here

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    As stupid as it sounds check F1 under the dash. It too east to pull it and check even though pretty darn sure it will be good. Id imagine that there are not too many joints/connections. Check the one under the bumper B4 it goes into the trailer plug. It is subject to the most weather-damage...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    Im sure both controllers are good. Like I said in my post 347. My thoughts... #1 There is a very slight possibility that the fuse feeding that circuit is bad. I say this because there are a lot of things under the dash that get power from different fuses but share a common ground. As...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    Keep in mind that I'm actually measuring the flow of current through a load, not the voltage. I understand. I don't have any power resistors that get me low enough to do the testing on my truck. The point of the load test is to see if it is required for the controller to give full output. In...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    Something is wrong. From memory, my truck (2020 DT) has the following while the truck is running without any load attached any gain 0% about 1V 5.0 gain 50% about 8V 5.0 gain 100% About 10V 10.0 gain 50% over 9V 10.0 gain 100% over 13V Forgive me but you are testing the bottom two pins right...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    That reading is in line with the what you were getting before. 5v sounds pretty low. Out of curiosity I’ll get some 100w resistors and measure my truck. Maybe you got a bad module???

    Power to trailer

    Had my electric/HYD tilt trailer running lights go out and the fix was replacing f12 under the hood. It seems that a lot of manufacturers put the trailer pump battery on the running light circuit for charging the battery while you go down the road (as long as you have them turned on). If that...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    I actually found a tapped wirewound 100 watt resistor (used when building tube amps as an attenuator) . Cool find! I hooked that up with the meter in series to measure amps. The resistor tap was set to 5 ohms. Most I could get out, on heavy electric setting and gain on 10 was about 1 amp. If...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    For our purpose we can treat the mags / e-brake as a resistive load. If I wanted to test the output from the truck I would want to load it up to the max current the controller would see. If I had 2 tires with brakes I might load it up to 6-8 amps. If there were 4 tires that had brakes I...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    Yes. If set to full output you should get a full voltage at the corresponding trailer terminal to ground. If not then Id start with the under hood fuses. The fancy new fuses are hard to tell if they are blown unless you test them. Just getting voltage does not necessarily mean that it can...

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    I’d ohm at the trailer plug while detached. Then do a voltage and current test while attached and another person holding the peddle / squeezing the controller slider does the trailer work properly in another truck?

    Need brake controller

    My 2020 has the oem controller I installed and flashed with alpha. Ive pulled my scissor lift many times (about 5k total) and never noticed. I’ll have to try and see if I can tell. I can say that the light trailer setting seems too light at lower speeds combined with lighter to medium brake...

    AlfaOBD

    I had great luck on my PC (bluetooth) using that BAFX adapter and Alpha. only thing different is that I used the ECRI bypass
