It works on the 2021s just fine. They’re all the same settings, there’s just a few missing that you can’t enable yet, like the reverse trailer steering module and the digital rear view mirror. Other than that, everything else can still be enabled.
I cannot get it to connect either. I also receive the ECM warning that it is not supported. Is it a different bypass for the 2021s vs the 2020 DTs?

What does the exact message say? Something about ISO? If so, click OK and proceed as normal.

Yes, go into your radio settings under lights, and select daytime running lights to toggle them off. Unless it’s a Canadian build- then you’ll need to change CBC Features: DRL Configuration to “optional DRL”, and CBC Features: DRL Lamp Location to “no DRL”.
Thanks Jimmy. Yes mine is a Canadian Truck.

@Jimmy07 Is there a way with AlfaOBD to see if the truck is seeing TPMS sensors? I got some supposedly OEM sensors(they have the correct part number) for my wheels and the truck still hasnt picked them up. Probably going to have to get Discount Tire to swap the ones over from my factory wheels but didnt know if there was a way to verify if the current ones are dead
See said thread

I'll check again tonight and confirm. It gave me the option to upload and sent to Alfa. Ill get a screenshot for you.
Ok, that’s the one I was thinking of. Just click OK, and proceed. It’ll work as normal like on the 2019-2020s.

Successfully changed my DRL to the amber signals. Disabled the foglight drop out and enabled my tailgate ajar warning.

Decided i should install a trailer brake controller so i ended up doing that as well. Took me about 15 minutes to install but i am also a tech. One thing i recommend is atleast having the dealer add the sales code of the accessory to your build sheet. That way if anything is ever flashed under warranty, once they restore vehicle configuations the accessory will stay programmed.

Now if only we could up that stupid 104mph speed governor...

Connect to the RF Hub, and read the system status. Scroll down to where it says number of TPMS sensors. See if it picked up on the four ID numbers.
Ok so I connect and it showed 4 ID numbers which I think were the factory wheels in my garage. Went for a drive and looked again and all but one of the ID’s changed. Tried programming the ones that changed but truck still wasn’t showing pressure. I’m just going to have Discount Tire swap my known good ones from the factory wheels and return these for a refund

@Jimmy07

you’re an evil genius thanks for the find on those annoying led light when they lights were off... all gone now

bed lights work as they should but I’m not seeing the purpose of the button on them it’s not doing anything lol

yes pin 5 and pin 16 have been activated so I’m not sure what it’s purpose is at this moment.
Any ideas?

I have the same. the button on the lamp does not affect its operation in any way. I just resigned myself and do not press on her.
Lol I see buttons I get those urges to push them. Still bugs me it doesn’t have a use
