Great video! Finally someone talking about using AlfaOBD and explaining that for RAM 2019+ I needed a security module bypass cable. I bought the OBDLink MX+ and had no problem connecting to it and downloading truck ID information but I could NOT make any changes because the ECM was not responding back to my changes. I believe the missing piece was this Security Module Bypass cable, thank you!!

@brustar5152 8 месяцев назад

@@zachderr213 Depending upon year, model, you might need a different security bypass cable as my truck is a 2020 1500 DS model and it does no have a security gateway module so the 12/8 bypass I bought was useless along with the later bypass cable I purchased (BOD) to plug directly into the can buss receptacles under the dash. That one came with a cable with two male plugs of the same size but the two buss bars have different diamter pins - so again - useless I have so far invested in the MDX + , the Alfa software, two different by pass cables and have wasted my money so don't get too intriqued with this until you firmly establish what your system actually has by way of security lock-out system.

Immediately I get Service Electronic Stability Control, Service Trailer Brake System and driving for couple minutes I get Service 4WD messages .

No, the frequency is set and the tpm sensor should be the same frequency as the system reads which I believe is 433mhz

@ericstyer2890 2 года назад

@@MKSPerformanceOffroad the tire shop (Discount Tire) threw on a known brand of aftermarket after damaging the OEM sensor that shows a range that would cover 433hz but the truck doesn’t see it. I bought an OEM one before I took it to them but they didn’t get that memo and used one of theirs. Since then I tried to assign the TRW sensor to the missing wheel on TPMS but it’s not installed so therefore no pressure or spinning motion for the RF-Hub to see active data. Not sure how the RF Hub knows tire position if it’s not programmed, Alfa allows one to assign a sensor and I thought when they replace sensors there’s and activation procedure that helps TPM relearn position but some forums indicate it’s all automatic and senses itself. So far that’s not been my experience. Not only am I missing one on dash but they do not match actual positions.

Depends on the type of bypass you have, if its the one that plugs in under the dash from obd port to can bus blocks then you can leave it in as long as you want.

Likely that you will need it as Ram started putting in the sgm in 2018. You will need to locate the sgm to verify you have one or simply call dealer and ask them, bet its behind the radio or near driver side dash somewhere near column or kick panel. The 4 digit pin is useful to have for certain procedures and started rolling every 24hrs for 2019+ so you shouldn’t have to worry about that on your 18’. Hope this answers your questions.

I see you have the ezlynk app on your tablet. Did you use that programmer on your 18 Ram before or after the Raceme programmer? Which one do you prefer? Did you use to have a 2003 Ram that you did videos on for a utility bed install and changing from auto transmission to a stick shift? If so you were a lot of help to me back then. I now have a Big Horn 2018 that I added things like you. Bed lights with switch, amp power steps, engine heater delete, 7” cluster, front and rear park assist sensors and a front camera. Thanks for your videos!!

@MKSPerformanceOffroad Год назад

No sir I had a 2014 Ram. I have not bought any ezlynk programming and strictly used it for data display. I prefer the raceme because of cost as I had already purchased and I didn’t really want to rely on my phone to display data. I use my phone quite a bit for other things. Personal preference to be honest though but there is some good stuff offered on both platforms. Thanks for the support and Im glad some of my videos helped you out.
