Ive used a code to trigger remote tailgate via alfa.Anybody find the values to enable Remote Tailgate Opener? Been combing through alfaOBD, nothing seems to stand out. Power tailgate enable apparently isn't it, and changing tailgate type isn't it either.
Also about remote tailgate feature, i recall folks who enabled another feature having to roll back because they lost tailgate down control. That may guide you to what they turned back on to get it back.Anybody find the values to enable Remote Tailgate Opener? Been combing through alfaOBD, nothing seems to stand out.

Alfa has a lot of canned diagnostic routines.Can you explain? Like you used your own custom coding to enable this feature?
I looked back i only see people who accidentally stopped their tailgate from locking/unlocking by playing with something.
Thank you for thatI'm not sure how to check this, since I don't have the hardware required for this.
If you download the free AlphaOBD app from Playstore, you can select "dodge Ram", RAM 1500 (DS/DX) - DT not available, Body Computer, MY2016-17 PowerNet , then select the bottom icon of a car with the hood open, Select Car Configuration Change as the Procedure, then you can see all the options available. No truck, OBD connection required to just see the list of options.
Anyone know how to get alpha obd to change to 35’s. I type it on standard or metric and says no option availableAlso about remote tailgate feature, i recall folks who enabled another feature having to roll back because they lost tailgate down control.

If your tire size is not one of the preselected ones in Alfaobd you have to put the tire circumference in mm.Anyone know how to get alpha obd to change to 35’s. I type it on standard or metric and says no option available
If you want to make a change, yes. It's a bypass module that goes right under the steering column. Once you find the two plugs that must be popped out and plugged in the module once, you can blindly find it after that.Do you need the bypass cable anytime you want to use alpha?

Verify with a GPS app or Waze afterwards to see if your speedo is accurate at higher speeds. When I selected 35" tires my speedo was fast 3mph at 70. Had to play with it and ended up with the mm equivalent of 33.75" tires. Now I'm dead accurate from 5-90 mph. Haven't gone faster than that with the cruise control on yet to verify steady speed.
found this on another post... not sure if it will helpDoes anyone know what must be changed in the alpha obd when installing mopar bed lights getting ready to install and know that it has to be flashed when done thanks

you sir are great love reading your posts lol do you know if you can reprogram the remote start options in with the alpha. being able to heat the truck when cold or cool when hot would be great. it says its supposed to do something like like and i'm lucky if it turns the seat heater or vent on... also best way you found to pipe in a video source on the screen is with an av module to bypass the screen?Ive used a code to trigger remote tailgate via alfa.
Thats the kind of thing i am working my project for.
Addling features via if/then logic that were not present at time of sale or.. ever by original manufacture.
Things like
Gps , sensor data, performance telemetry logging off to gdrive.
Secure connection to a vps for non fca remote control/ theft management without a fca sub for xm guardian.
Surround camera DVR of what happens while you are driving or parked.
In cab cam and audio. (Yes i know how fast i was going, i have a dashcam, 2 speed sensors and video of this conversation already stored in the cloud.)
all lights on simultaneous for off road blinding glory.
Control lines for aftermarket systems. Lights, suspension, horns, smokescreen, oil slick, rpg hidden behind high beam projectors.
Progressive speed governor when theft notice triggered ( 105 stock, 55, 45, 35,... down to stop, 4wheel abs lockout, electronic shift to park/neutral, ignition interrupt).
Cooldown mode after stopping with a high temp after hard running.
In call to car audio via google voice without handheld phone, using bt handsfree in car.
Echo/alexa in car via pi/hotspot (if you are into that).
Video in motion lockout remove (for always on dash telemetry display).
If temp in cabin over x and rainsense wipers detect no rain, crack open windows when remote starting to help greenhouse heat out of truck.
If phone AND key not present, enable valet mode, or disable start entirely.
Use my own current mapping in dash.
Use truck as live display base station for long haul first person video rc aviation chase truck.
Some more crap ill think up as i go.
Basically, i paid for it, this truck is gonna be mine in the mr robot sense as well as the title.
No, i dont care about the crap fca warranty. I only decided to do this after they burned me and i needed to totally open it for diag by a 3rd patty shop i trust.
end to beginning - best way to get video to the screen is with a jailbroken iphone or android and their respective screen mirroring. composite video input via a separate device is garbage quality vs digital to digital display. that just wasn't an option for what I am doing so that's why I went down the rabbit hole of cargo cam input on the other thread.you sir are great love reading your posts lol do you know if you can reprogram the remote start options in with the alpha. being able to heat the truck when cold or cool when hot would be great. it says its supposed to do something like like and i'm lucky if it turns the seat heater or vent on... also best way you found to pipe in a video source on the screen is with an av module to bypass the screen?
Aww yes! it has been a quarantine since I have looked at alfa. woot!Just in case you folks haven't looked at AlfaOBD lately they have added some new items
Does anyone know if the tow mirrors still have the motors in them from the regular folding mirrors? If so, would it be possible to activate that feature with this?
