I read the forums posts on BSM. What I’ve done is I bought BSM mirrors, new LED taillights with bsm , I installed the wiring harness from infotainment.com. the wiring is right and left direct replacement to the taillights and a pigtail that connects to a harness ran from the taillights to the canbus. I had a SGW by pass and an OBD software installer. Here is the problem I have no connection with the taillights and the canbus. So after reading the comments I bought ALFOBD and a Bluetooth OBDLink MX + OBD2 reader. I cannot get ALFOBD to read the canbus. So I purchased the Yellow and Blue OBD cable like the ALFOBD web page said. In short I still can’t get the OBD reader to connect to the truck’s canbus. Anybody have any ideas to help.
My truck is a 22 Ram 1500 DT. Thanks for my comments.

You will need the security bypass cable in order to program your truck.
