How to: Add Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane assist, FCW & Auto Hi-beam to Ram 1500

I am almost done and last part is getting camera aligned. Wondering what people said to dodge dealership for appointment did you just say I needed the dasm calibrated or did you say I have a used camera and you just follow these procedures if it’s planted , my dealership may not have a clue what I am talking about

I told them I just needed it calibrated. Nothing more. You could say you had the windshield replaced and they couldn't do it with their equipment.

If you have a used DASM, then you have to explain to them the steps, because the procedure they’re used to doing won’t work.
 
I was Expecting 400 for a non oem windshield
I thought they couldn’t do calibration of dasm,

They can’t. DO NOT LET THEM TRY TO CALIBRATE. The recalibration is an automatic charge by their corporate for this windshield. You need to explain to them when you go there to only install the windshield and nothing else. They will readjust the pricing so you don’t have to pay the calibration.
I’ve done 5 so far through safelite, and it always ends up being about $650.
 
i waited and they sent me a coupon for 100 off.

I successfully completed my upgrades yesterday. I took the time to consolidate the steps to help anyone who is trying to piece together different threads for adding the adaptive cruise control. Amazing work done by a lot of people to build this thread and share their process.

  • Parts Used for My 2023 Limited w/ Forward Collision Avoidance w/ Emergency Braking
    • Hydraulic Control Unit – Mopar Part 68415320AA $439.27 from FactoryMoparDirect.Com
    • Anti-lock Brake System Module– Mopar Part 68436462AA $297.00 from FactoryMoparDirect.Com
  • ABS>DT 2019+> ECS In Plant Mode> Disable
  • ABS>DT 2019+ > EPB In Plant Mode> Disable
  • ABS > DT 2019> Service Procedures > Assembly Check
When this was all done, I only had one remaining error which was the EPB error. This cleared when I engaged and released the parking brake and cycled the ignition one time.

I hope this helps. I tried to consolidate the steps into one place. I think this process will work the same if you buy a used part.

I also attached a version to make it easier to print if anyone is like me an likes to have a checklist to follow.

Hello, thank you very much for the information, is it absolutely necessary to have the donor's VIN? Or just knowing that it really has the necessary parts? thanks in advance
 
It helps to validate the parts you need to get upgrade your vehicle to new capabilities you want. Also, some online dealers want to verify parts are compatible or they will not accept returns.

I have searched through the forums, but have not been able to find anything. Nor, in a google search. Do you have a part # for the correct windshield glass?

You wont need a part number you will just request a replacement windshield and provide a donor vin, the vin in the thread is 1C6SRFU95MN903352
you can always plug the vin in to this url and make sure it has adaptive auto cruise
Yes the TRX windshield will work rumor has it that it will make the truck faster as well.
this vin is also good https://www.ramtrucks.com/hostd/windowsticker/getWindowStickerPdf.do?vin=1C6SRFJT5KN544517

Hey there. I just bought a 2023 Laramie, and this is my first post. I'm interested in adding ACC and I've read through most of this thread over the last couple of days. My truck has FCW already, so according to the first post, I should just need the HCU/ABS module, the switch (which I already have installed), and AlfaODB, which I already have working as well.

My question is this. My local salvage yard has an HCU/ABS module from a 21 TRX with vin number 1C6SRFU95MN904811. If I were to buy that and install it, do you guys think it would work? I know all TRXs are capable of ACC by just adding the switch and turning it on with AlfaODB, but are there any additional concerns with adding the ABS module from a TRX to my truck? I'm not concerned about the VIN mismatch, I found the procedure earlier in this thread to reprogram a used module. I'm mostly concerned because the part number on the module doesn't match any of those that I've seen confirmed to work.

Just to be thorough, my VIN is 1C6SRFJT8PN520218. And here's a link to the part I'm thinking about buying: 21 DODGE RAM 1500 ABS ANTI LOCK BRAKE ASSEMBLY 6.2L ALL WHEEL DRIVE | eBay.

I don't really want to buy a new module, mostly because I'm confused as to which part number I should get. It seems like every time I search on a mopar parts website for a part number confirmed to work, nothing comes up. I'm assuming that's because the part has been replaced, but I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on a part I don't know for sure will work.

Thanks in advance for all your help!

No, you can’t use a TRX abs module on a regular 1500.
