Lol, that’s just what it showed when I unlocked the pages. I have since reset it. It only shows 94 now (was running late for work).How did you get the top speed to 119? Mine cuts out at 105.

The fastest way to figure this out might be to reach out to Recon.Hi all. I recently upgraded my halogens to the led headlights from recon and I can't figure out what to change to get the halos to light up instead of my turn signal lights. Of course that's even if the halogen trucks are capable of doing that. I've already changed my drls from my headlight to the front turn signals. I feel like I'm still missing something. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I might have to do that. When I got them I was surprised to see that there wasn't a separate wire harness to run for those lights like all the videos I've seen for similar lights. It's all wired into the factory plug.The fastest way to figure this out might be to reach out to Recon.
I imagine you will need to tap a wire/fuse that is switched on/off with the accessory or run a switch to power the DRL's.
The stock upper/lower bars on the oem full led headlights uses a alfa setting called signature lights. They are not DRL's actually. Very dim lights.
Good luck.
Something strange also happened to my 8.4 Nav today. Updated to Qr 39 a few days ago and enabled off-road and performance page with Alfa and today they disappeared. Haven’t gone out to the truck yet to try again with Alfa. Just found it strange that it is all gone.
Anyone have any insight?

No, it cannot. You have to be able to read the security code and AlfaODB doesn't have that ability.Hi. Does anyone know if ALpha OBD can program keys for the 5th gen rams?
You can't change colors that aren't there.Does anyone know that Alfa OBD can change rear side markers from amber to red and in front amber to white?
I saw that on those light shows with a tazer dt that those amber lights can also show red. So I wonder if that the possibility could be there for just the lights without a light show. And it seems you can program more with Alfa OBD instead of a Tazer DTYou can't change colors that aren't there.
On the rears, your turn signal is amber, brake lights are red. You could rewire it so it doesn't flash the amber turn signal on the rear, just the red brake lightI saw that on those light shows with a tazer dt that those amber lights can also show red.

Search Amazon for SGW Bypass. You can use a cheap Bluetooth ODB interface. You only need the expensive one for certain things, but if you aren't adding factory options, you will be fine. I've added a lot of factory options and only needed the expensive one for 1 thing. The PC version is a little easier to use, but I've used the Android version for 98% of everything I've done.Couple of Alfa OBD newbie questions here. I've seen so many references to what Alfa OBD can do on this thread and scattered elsewhere throughout the forum that I've getting increasingly interested in investigating it. I have a '22 Rebel EcoDiesel.
Here's what I think I know :
1) I need to buy the Alfa OBD software. I see there's an Android and a PC version. Is it personal preference which to use or is one generally thought better than the other ?
I'm guessing the bigger the screen the better for working with the software, which might be a vote in favor of running it on a laptop.
I have a Galaxy S22 phone which has a decent screen but still small. I've seen some folks suggest getting a cheap android tablet, perhaps that's better than any phone screen ?
2) I need a cable of some sort to connect whatever device is running the software to the truck.
I see Alfa OBD suggest either a bluetooth (OBDLink MX+ ) or cable ( OBDLink EX ), with the latter being a standard USB Type A plug. That would work on a laptop but not on my phone which has USB C connector ( I think ). So I'd need an adapter for that.
3) I've seen reference to a Security Gateway bypass required but haven't quite figured out what I need there or if I need anything.
Appreciate any jump-start answers from the forum, there's 91 pages here on this thread, I've scanned through some of them and ran some searches but still have these questions
Get the android version. Easier to use than PC version. Your phone is fine. Use the Bluetooth adapter. Yes you need a SGW bypass. Can be either a module or cable.Couple of Alfa OBD newbie questions here.

If you do this right you can get everything you'll need for right around $100 if you use your current galaxy phone. The alfaobd app is $50, the bypass cable I use was $23 and you can get a bluetooth adapter for about $25. I use the expensive bluetooth adapter and my galaxy s22+ phone and it works great.Couple of Alfa OBD newbie questions here.

There are cheaper options than that, which will work for 99% of those trying to do things with alfaObdThis adapter does everything the obdlink mx+ does on our platforms at less than half the cost.

Yes, but the option @Brutal_HO posted has the same capabilities as the MX+, but way cheaper. You’re not going to find a cheaper device that can connect to all the modules on the truck.There are cheaper options than that, which will work for 99% of those trying to do things with alfaObd
That may be but it's not what I said. The vgate will do everything the mx+ will do for less.There are cheaper options than that, which will work for 99% of those trying to do things with alfaObd
