AlfaOBD

Too many options to list based on personal preference and budget. There are only 2 options for AlfaOBD (Android app or windows program) but multiple approaches you can take for the rest.

This is a long thread but lots of great info to glean from it while enjoying a cup (or 3) of coffee as Idahoktm mentioned.

You will need 3 things:

- AlfaOBD program
- Security Gateway Bypass
- OBDII connection that will communicate with the device you have AlfaOBD on

From there it's up to you to decide how you want to build your equipment list to meet those requirements, how soon you want them, and your budget.
 
Looking for suggestions on a gateway module bypass cable. The one I wanted on Amazon is unavailable.

alfaOBD is an app. There is only one app. If you are talking about the OBD2 device that plugs into the truck, it sounds like it's hit or miss on some of the cheaper devices. The preferred device, that is known to work, has been posted multiple times
are you trying to tell me, **** off and read the information in the thread? because it sounds like you know the answer and just dont want to give it?

If I knew the exact name or part number, I would have told you. I don't have it memorized so suggesting looking for the multiple posts that have been made about it

Bet you're motivated to go find it now.... Lol
 
Well, I've been paying my dues (Tazer, AlfaOBD, new laptop) and studying on and off for many months and I cannot get my one problem fixed. My 2021 Ram 1500 Eco Laramie came with Tow mirrors (not what I ordered), so I put the smaller folding mirrors on, BUT, my 360 camera view is now distorted and I cannot figure out how to fix this. Please help a brother out.

You need to recalibrate it in AlfaODB. From what I've seen, it is best to do it in a well lit parking lot with plenty of cars. It likes a lot of objects to look at.
 
Can the OEM led headlights have sequential turn signal with alpa?
 
Anyone figure out how add off-road pages yet?

You have to be on the latest update PR 39..
