My truck has 29337 miles on it and I put it to 24000. It went to 14900. I been trying to correct it it but can only get it close.


Is there a possibility that you're setting the mileage in a location that is looking for a value in kilometers?

24,000 km * .625 = 15,000 miles

In the above example;

29,337 miles * 1.6 = 46,939.2 km


I checked active codes and u1412 implausible vehicles speed signal keeps popping up.

This sounds like the tire circumference size is set incorrectly. This condition will also mess up the speedometer and the odometer readings.

Is the speedometer working properly?

I set custom tire sizes for winter and summer wheels and used an old standalone GPS to fine tune the setting.

I'll post the AlfaOBD location for tire size a bit later when I start my PC, using a phone ATM.

Just finished performing the Update TPMS Threshold on a 2024 PW. It appears to have taken, but my TPMS light is still on. Display shows the corrected PSI. Anyone seen this before?View attachment 547796
Change the pressure thresholds back to the original numbers, inflate the tires up to those thresholds, THEN change your thresholds to the lower number and deflate down to what you want.

Jeez, I'd never think of that. Good info!

Had my windshield replaced and the auto wipers aren’t as sensitive as they used to be by quite a lot (2017 ram 1500 Laramie). I saw a few posts on people adding the rain sensor and enabling it via AlfaOBD, and some mentioned calibration settings.
Is there a way to calibrate the sensor with AlfaOBD?
Has anyone tried that out?

2024 Ram Power Wagon: After adjusting my tire size with ALFA OBD a couple of weeks ago, today my front park sensor is turning off on its own after driving for a few minutes and the sensor switch shows off and wont turn on. The message is shows when turning off says "Front Park Sense Unavailable." When I click the switch to turn it back on, a message shows up on my dash saying Wiper Sensor. Not sure if this is related to the tire size change using ALFA. The dealer did have to take off my bumper about 4 weeks ago to replace a DTR light, but everything was fine after that. The dealer also had to replace my battery three weeks ago and after that is when I adjusted the tire size with ALFA.

Today when I shut off the truck and turn it back on and drive, the sensor seems to be active for about 5-10 minutes then it shuts off again. Also, my sensors are clean. Alfa shows no codes for BCM or ABS.

This evening the "Front Park Sense Unavailable" message came on briefly then it started working again.

Any ideas for fixing this?

These are what your settings should be that have to do with DRLs:
DRL configuration >optional
DRL lamp location > dedicated
DRL dropout enabled > yes
CBC I/O right dedicated DRL lamp output present> yes
CBC I/O left dedicated DRL lamp output present > yes
LED dedicated DRL present> yes
ECUConfig 3 DRL customer setting enable> yes
CustSetMenu 1 daytime running lights CSM> yes
These settings are for 2015 RAM with Factory Projector Headlights, right?

These are what I did on my '16 Sport with OEM projectors. Believe the '15 and '16 are the same.

What you show above is "dedicated" DRL. Thats OK for Canada, but they weren't mandatory dedicated DRL's in lower 48.
