Rear Fog Lamps

[lost sailor]

My truck originally had the TTPMS module. So I "robbed" those wires from my original bumper harness and grafted them into the new bumper harness (with rear fog, backup sensors, etc.), Now my I don't get the TTPMS error.

Makes sense and good idea. For mine I used Alfa and disabled these two settings:

VehConfig 8: Trailer TPM

P/T Chasis Net: TTPM Trailer Tire Pressure Monitoring

Although I'll never use the TTPMS--probably won't even pull a trailer, I wanted to have the function working.

Smooth install

Unbelievably, the wires for the rear fog lights were present in the body harness of my 2022 BH. Unbelievable since rear fogs are about a 10%, or less, option. They were not present in the bumper harness; so I had to buy a new bumper harness.

Ditto for my '22. Yes to body harness, no to bumper harness.

Hello, I'm also on my way to rear for lights.

There is no need to change instrument cluster, amber fog lights sign is displayed on TFT screen in the left top corner.
As I understand it's required to change market in alfaOBD. Will try to do that in near future and will post update.

Were you successful in changing the market for the cluster? Did it cause any other issues?

sorry guys was busy and still not found time to visit guy with AlfaOBD. I'm without android phone to check it in my own. JScan for some reason loses connection all the time

I found a Middle East Ram 1500 ('24) Owners Manual online here.

I wanted to post the official rear fog operation instructions, just for future reference on this thread.

guys, if you want to have the amber rear fog lights symbol (showing on the lefthand side of the center screen) you need to change the country code from USA to something different in the bcm via alfa obd. For example: Canada

Great. Does it change anything else; beside km for speedometer and odometer? Can these be changed back to miles throught Settings in the truck?

Some of the alert messages change. For example, instead of “Low Fuel,” it’ll say, “Low Fuel, eh?”

Now that's funny. Now I want a Canadian Edition where all the voice alerts are done by Bob and Doug McKenzie.
