In order to make any changes to the BCM you will need alphaOBD (windows or android), an OBD interface, and a SGW bypass. Without the bypass you will only be able to view current settings. I only changed 3 settings related to the lane departure as I was only trying to see if it would enable that feature. I have not made the other changes yet as I don't have the ACC switch installed.
Do not use a bypass like that. It only bypasses one of the two busses.
Thanks for posting that! I was hoping to find a cheaper OBD as the link MX+ doesn't make sense for Alfaobd.
I should also add that the MX+ is capable of Ford and GM mid speed bus, where the LX is not. If you’re using it strictly for FCA vehicles and windows/android apps, LX is fine. If you want the most versatile interface across most vehicles and platforms, the MX+ is pretty much capable of all of them.
I guess You are talking about: https://www.infotainment.com/products/fca-security-gateway-module-bypass?variant=8775773945892
People on Amazon are saying, that even $20 option will work: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NLQAHS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
That installation procedure is for an HD Ram. The gateway on an HD is behind the instrument cluster, so it has to be removed. On the 1500 DT Rams, the gateway is right above your feet, next to the OBD port.
I actually currently have that product, but it was purchased way back in 2013 so I am not too sure if it will actually work on my truck. Wonder if there is a way for me to see if it will do what I need it to do prior to purchasing Alfaobd?
I would not recommend that one. Yes, people have been successful making some common changes with that one, but it is not fast enough for some other settings changes. Also, there are a few modules that require separate OBD adapters to be able to connect. On these particular modules, the OBDLink products do the switching internally, but with that BAFX, you would actually need the external adapters.
If you already have that one, use it first and see. If you don’t have anything at all, and it was a choice between the two, just get it over with and get the OBDLink. I know for a fact that the OBDLink products is capable of connecting to every module on the truck, and can make every single setting change possible.
Clear. Thank You for clarification!
Ok! Thank You, I have removed the video not to confuse others.
I can't open the file you know what parts I need I have a 2020 Laramie ram 1500 with almost all the functions except acc or fcw
In case of 12" screen and DASM module installed (FCW exist):
If you don't already have the DASM which controls the FCW, ACC, Lane Keep, etc... you'll need that along with a new windshield, abs module, hydraulic control unit, switch for ACC, center stack with lane sense button, along with the alfaobd program, obd reader, and a SGW bypass. It's a pretty involved process starting from scratch, and the DASM is pretty expensive at around $1,000 +\-. I would try to find a way to open the attachment so you can see if it's something you want to get in to.
Did moparpartsinc contact You regarding Center stack order? They said to me, that 68312620AG doesn't match my VIN and they will not accept return, I believe the reason is that my track was without factory installed ACC/lane assist. I confirmed my order and asked them to proceed.
