The WIN and fobs need to be programmed.
To program the WIN Module and key fobs, you will need AlphaOBD and an interface cable (or similar program)
I use this cable
And AlphOBD (I use the windows version on my laptop)
Instructions to program them
Obtain PIN
1. Insert working key into existing WIN, turn to run position with engine off.
2. Have your OBD interface connected and AlfaOBD running and connected to the interface.
3. Select the following on the main screen in AlfaOBD:
-
Car Model-> Your truck model (My truck is a Ram 2012 (DJ/DR))
-
Function-> Radio Frequency Hub (RFH)
-
Control Unit-> Wireless Control Module (WCM) - MY2011-12 non-PowerNet Var. 1 (There's a Var. 2, but has the same procedures as Var. 1, so i just used Var. 1, don't know what the difference is between the two)
4.Tap connect to connect to the module on the next screen. Connection status will indicate if you're connected or not.
5. Tap the icon of a car with the hood up in the lower right corner.
6. Select the following in the Active Diagnostics screen:
-
Procedure to start -> Read PIN->Tap Start. Will display your trucks 4-digit PIN which will be used to program the new WIN and existing keys. I got my PIN from the dealer and verified it using this procedure.
-After obtaining your PIN, turn off truck, remove key and remove old WIN. You'll need a phillips and T20 bit to remove and replace the WIN. If you already got your PIN from the dealer you can skip the PIN retrieval instructions above and just proceed as below.
Program New WIN
1. After installing new WIN module, insert working key into new WIN, turn to run position with engine off.
2. Have your OBD interface connected and AlfaOBD running and connected to the interface.
3. Select the following on the main screen in AlfaOBD:
-
Car Model-> Your truck model (My truck is a Ram 2012 (DJ/DR))
-
Function-> Radio Frequency Hub (RFH)
-
Control Unit-> Wireless Control Module (WCM) - MY2011-12 non-PowerNet Var. 1 (There's a Var. 2, but has the same procedures as Var. 1, so i just used Var. 1, don't know what the difference is between the two)
4.Tap connect to connect to the module on the next screen. Connection status will indicate if you're connected or not.
5. Tap the icon of a car with the hood up in the lower right corner.
6. Select the following in the Active Diagnostics screen:
-
Transfer Secret Key from PCM->Enter 4-digit PIN->Tap Start. Let the programing run, will say complete when finished. Cycle key off then back on, you'll have a flashing security light (red light at lower right corner near fuel gauge). Now program your existing keys to work with the new WIN.
Program Existing Keys (and new keys)
1. Insert working key into new WIN, turn to run position with engine off.
2. Have your OBD interface connected and AlfaOBD running and connected to the interface.
3. Select the following on the main screen in AlfaOBD:
-
Car Model-> Your truck model (My truck is a Ram 2012 (DJ/DR))

Program Ignition Keys or Key FOBs->Enter 4-digit PIN->Start. Let the program run, will say testing complete when finished. Your instrument cluster lights will be on when it's done, this is normal. Cycle key off then back on and test all functions. You existing key is now programmed to the new WIN. Rinse and repeat for any additional keys. This is the same procedure if you are programming new keys.
